Experience managing complex engineering or manufacturing tenders
Strong knowledge of defence procurement and competitive tender processes
Excellent project management and stakeholder engagement skills
Commercial awareness with experience of pricing and contractual documentation
Outstanding written communication and proposal development ability
A structured, organised and detail-oriented approach
Experience with recognised bid management methodologies would be advantageous
Eligibility to obtain UK Security Clearance (or existing clearance)

The Opportunity

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a growing engineering business supplying critical projects within the defence sector.

The successful candidate will receive:

Salary circa £70,000
10% employer pension contribution
Hybrid working
Excellent benefits package
Long-term career progression
Opportunity to work on technically challenging, high-value engineering programmes
Stable business with continued investment and ambitious growth plans
