We have have a fantastic new opportunity to join our Creative Labs team in the exciting world of Bids as a Bid Content Writer.

So, you’ve never heard of a bid? Don’t worry – most of us hadn’t either when we started in the bidding world. It’s a role that’s often tucked away in sales or marketing teams, but once the door’s open there are endless possibilities.

Were you one of the few people who actually enjoyed your exams? Did you love trying to hit top marks? Do you have a creative streak but thrive best when everything is organised?

We’re looking for a detail-driven, creative, and confident graduate to join our bold and brilliant team of content creators, coordinators, proposal managers, writers, and designers – we’re an assorted bunch!

We’re offering you the opportunity to join an inspiring, fun and boundary pushing team within a FTSE100 company. Starting as a Content Developer, you’ll be working within our Knowledge Lab which houses our Bid Content Library, to support the creation of work winning bids.

We also offer an achievable route to progression, with full training programmes and the platform to succeed. Your goal might be to be a bid writer, a bid manager, designer, or project manager – you can do that here, and we’ll help you get there.

On top of all of that, did we mention we’re a catering company, that’s food – and who doesn’t like food?
