You’ll work with Bid Managers, salespeople and teams of subject matter experts to deliver high-quality, compelling bids, proposals and presentations that showcase the very best of BJSS and speak to what our clients really want.
You’ll join a close-knit team of Bid Managers, Bid Coordinators and reviewers who work together to achieve the best results for every bid.

The whole team also works with the wider business to improve our approach to bid and proposal creation.
