Job Description

AKT II are looking for an experienced Bid Manager to take the lead in developing and delivering high-quality, commercially compelling proposals that help us secure new business.

In this role, you’ll coordinate cross-functional teams, shape bid strategy, manage budgets, and ensure every submission is compliant, competitive, and aligned with our organisational goals.

As the central hub of the bid process, you’ll drive opportunities from initial identification through to final presentation and post-bid review. You’ll manage timelines, mitigate risks, maintain profitability, and produce clear, persuasive bid documents that stand out.

As a Bid Manager your responsibilities include, but are not limited to the following:

Proactively monitoring tender portals, industry networks, and market intelligence sources to identify relevant opportunities. Working closely with senior leadership to shape bid strategy, establish win themes, define key differentiators (USPs), and support pricing decisions. Assembling and guiding cross-functional bid teams, including writers, technical specialists, and commercial or sales contributors. Leading the creation of high-quality, compliant, and persuasive proposal documents that reflect client requirements and organisational strengths. Overseeing timelines, resources, and budgets to ensure all deliverables are completed accurately and on schedule. Ensuring full alignment with client specifications, legal standards, and internal governance while identifying and mitigating risks. Acting as the central point of contact for internal teams, clients, and external partners, ensuring clear and consistent communication throughout the bid process. Facilitating debriefs, capturing lessons learned, and integrating insights to strengthen future bids. Collecting and analysing bid-related data—such as submission volumes, win rates, and market trends—to inform strategic decision-making.

Required skills

Robust project and programme management capabilities. Exceptional communication and influencing skills. Meticulous attention to detail with a strong compliance focus. Advanced analytical skills and strategic thinking. Ability to perform effectively under pressure and consistently meet deadlines. Strong commercial awareness and sound business judgment.

Qualifications and experience

Solid understanding of the design-led built environment, gained through hands-on industry experience. Demonstrated success in managing and delivering bids, tenders, and proposals within structural engineering, civil engineering, or the wider construction sector. Strong track record overseeing the full tender lifecycle — from early opportunity assessment through submission, presentation, and post-bid evaluation.

What's in it for you?

The chance to work for an innovative, design-led studio based in London with the opportunity to work on some of the very best projects across Scandinavia, Europe and internationally, plus a friendly, dedicated team and a competitive salary. You’ll receive AKT II’s many employee benefits including a vibrant social calendar, with many company-funded events and activities.
