£80,000 – £90,000 + car/allowance + bonus | Reading | Main Contractor | Permanent | Hybrid (3 office / 2 home)

Every role is pivotal to the success of a project within a contractor. But this one is absolutely critical. Not just for a single scheme, but for the way the business wins and shapes work from the very start.

We are working with a well-established main contractor, known for delivering diverse projects across both public and private sectors. They need a Bid / Pre Construction Manager to lead from the front, an industry pro who understands strategy, the importance of detail and has the ability to manage all the relationships sitting behind a successful tender.

This is an important role, tailor made for somebody with technical credibility and commercial understanding to manage a team, liaise with clients and take ownership of complex tenders from first brief to contract award. Y

You will bring structure, pace and clarity to the bidding process, effortlessly coordinating estimators, planners, design manager, operational leads and external consultants to deliver compelling, compliant and competitive submissions.

The Bid / Pre Construction Manager will be working across both single-stage and two-stage tenders, as well as negotiated bids, often within DfE and other public sector frameworks, so experience in this arena is important. That said, you’ll also need the flexibility and commercial instinct to switch gears for private sector opportunities when they come in.

This is a hybrid role, typically three days in the office, two from home - though when a big bid is live, you’ll need to be present and more hands-on with the team. It’s a collaborative culture: clear-headed, professional and ambitious.

We’re looking for someone from a commercial (estimating/QS), operational, design management or planning background - someone who’s been in the room, delivered projects, and knows what it takes to win them. You’ll be comfortable leading, confident enough to challenge and experienced enough to know when to push and when to listen.

This is a key role in a well-supported, well-structured business that takes pride in the way it wins work. If you’re looking for more than just another bid to chase and want to play a real part in how projects are put together, secured and handed over this is the role for you.
