UK Renewable Energy Recruitment Manager | Expert in Project Development | 12+ Years Recruitment Experience

Location: London

Are you a proactive, hands‑on professional who wants to make a tangible impact in the renewable energy transition? We’re looking for a Tendering & Proposals Manager to join our marine‑focused renewables client in their growing team in London.

In this varied and dynamic role, you’ll take ownership of the end‑to‑end tendering and proposal process, from identifying opportunities and coordinating submissions to crafting compelling proposals and securing project funding. You’ll experience both busy, high‑intensity periods and quieter phases where you can plan, refine, and develop future strategies.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the preparation and submission of commercial tenders, bids, and proposals.
• Write and manage high‑quality responses for public and private sector opportunities.
• Support and lead on grant applications and funding submissions.
• Collaborate with technical, commercial, and delivery teams to produce accurate and engaging content.
• Maintain and improve proposal templates, tools, and bid libraries.
• Use your understanding of PV systems, battery storage, and wider renewable technologies to strengthen proposals.

About You

• Proven experience in tendering, proposals, or bid management within the renewable energy sector.
• Strong writing and communication skills — able to turn complex technical details into persuasive narratives.
• A “roll your sleeves up” attitude — happy to dive into detail and get things done.
• Knowledge of PV modelling and/or battery energy storage systems would be a real advantage.
• Organised, adaptable, and comfortable managing multiple priorities.

Why Join the Company

• Play a pivotal role in delivering innovative, sustainable energy projects.
• Work alongside a passionate, mission‑driven team.
• Competitive salary and benefits package.

If you’re ready to take ownership, drive results, and contribute to a cleaner energy future — we’d love to hear from you.
