Job Description:

We're searching for a talented Bid Writer to join a leading UK recruitment business with a strong presence across multiple sectors. Be part of a central bid function that produces high-quality, competitive submissions for significant public and private sector contracts.

This position involves working closely with internal experts in Sales, Finance, Legal, and Operations to shape persuasive content that meets strict compliance standards and deadlines. You'll be responsible for managing bids from start to finish, ensuring every submission is clear, tailored, and compelling.

While prior bid writing experience in recruitment or professional services is an advantage, we're also open to strong writers from other content-focused, deadline-driven roles.

The successful Bid Writer / Manager will:

• Oversee the full lifecycle of bids and tenders, from initial scoping to final submission.
• Produce engaging, tailored written responses aligned with client requirements.
• Liaise with subject matter experts to gather accurate operational and technical details.
• Coordinate timelines and manage multiple projects to meet deadlines.
• Create supporting materials including case studies, implementation strategies, and quality statements.
• Maintain and update a shared content library for consistent, efficient future use.
• Apply design and formatting techniques to enhance proposal presentation.
• Research market trends, competitors, and client needs to inform bid content.
• Contribute to process improvements across the bid team.

Our Clients are looking for:

Exceptional writing and editing skills with the ability to produce clear, persuasive content.

Strong organisational skills to manage multiple bids at different stages.

High attention to detail and a proactive approach to quality checks.

Ability to work independently and collaboratively across departments.

Proficiency in Microsoft Word and PowerPoint (InDesign or similar design tools would be beneficial).

Experience working in a corporate or professional services environment involving cross-team collaboration.

It Would Be Great If You Also Have:

APMP accreditation (Foundation or above) or a willingness to work towards this.

Familiarity with public sector procurement frameworks (CCS, ESPO, YPO, NHS Workforce Alliance).

Background in recruitment, outsourcing, or staffing solutions.

Experience with bid management platforms (Responsive, Loopio, Autogen AI).

Degree-level education or equivalent professional experience.

What's on Offer

Join an established bid function at the centre of a growing, nationally recognised recruitment business.

Hybrid working arrangement for a balanced work-life approach.

Exposure to a diverse portfolio of high-value bids across multiple industries.

Location & Travel: This role is based in East Birmingham within easy reach of Coventry, Solihull, Sutton Coldfield, Nuneaton, Tamworth, and Rugby. Hybrid working is available, and occasional travel to meetings or workshops will be required (with some overnight stays).

If you have a flair for persuasive writing and the ability to coordinate complex bids from start to finish, we'd like to hear from you.
