Job Description
A Unique Opportunity to Advance Your Career in an Innovative London Studio
This opportunity is exclusively available through Grõ Careers - you won't find it anywhere else in the market.
Join a rapidly growing, internationally recognised architecture studio with an exceptional design portfolio and ambitious plans for the Middle East, Europe, and the US. With a brand-new, centrally located London office, this is a standout role for an experienced Bid Manager ready to take their career to the next level.
Why This Role Is Different
You’ll be integral to the studio’s pursuit of exciting new projects, playing a proactive and strategic role in identifying and securing opportunities. Your insights and expertise in managing the complete bid lifecycle, from initial assessments through competitions, RFP’s, and direct client engagements, will help shape the future direction of the practice.
This is not a reactive position: you'll actively seek out and open doors to new business, working closely alongside senior leadership who will support and guide the strategic assessment of leads.
What You’ll Do
* Conduct first-pass assessments of new project opportunities and advise senior leadership on strategic viability.
* Lead and coordinate the entire bid management process across competitions, RFP’s, and EOI’s.
* Build strategic relationships, particularly with government entities such as PIF-backed organisations in Saudi Arabia.
* Work closely with marketing and PR teams to ensure cohesive, compelling submissions.
* Leverage data analytics, AI, and market research to identify and qualify new leads, and develop informed, strategic bid approaches.
Who We’re Looking For
* Proven architectural Bid management experience (minimum 4-5 years).
* Comprehensive, 360-degree understanding of bid processes from qualification to final submission.
* Experience with government entities, ideally including Saudi PIF-backed organisations.
* Commercial awareness combined with strategic thinking.
* Skilled in data-driven market analysis, proficient in using analytics tools, AI, and public data resources.
* Exceptional communicator with a talent for crafting persuasive narratives and presentations.
* Highly organised, self-driven, and looking for an opportunity to significantly advance your career.
What’s on Offer
* A highly competitive salary.
* Genuine and rapid opportunities for career advancement.
* Direct engagement with senior leadership, shaping strategic initiatives.
* International travel opportunities to engage with key clients and global projects (if desirable).
* Inspirational working environment in a brand-new, centrally located London studio.
Take the Next Step
This practice is ideal for ambitious individuals seeking an environment free from traditional UK studio constraints, where talent and potential are recognised, rewarded, and rapidly progressed.
If you're a high-achiever feeling limited in your current role and looking for a real platform to step up and showcase your talent...this is your chance.
