Mozer, a specialist bid consultancy supporting clients across the property, construction, and development sectors, is recruiting for an experienced and motivated Bid Manager. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, enjoys variety, and is looking to take ownership of high-quality bids for a diverse client base.

The successful candidate will take responsibility for managing the full bid lifecycle from initial kick off through to submission and debrief. This includes:

• Running kick off meetings, shaping win strategies, and coordinating bid teams
• Writing, editing, and structuring persuasive bid responses
• Interviewing technical contributors and transforming information into clear, compelling content
• Managing graphic designers and other suppliers to deliver high quality materials
• Supporting pitch and presentation preparation and rehearsals
• Building and maintaining strong relationships with clients
• Supporting business development activity and attending occasional networking events
• Contributing to best practice tools, templates, and internal bid systems

Please note: Working within a small consultancy environment means operating across multiple bids each week for a wide range of clients, all with differing priorities. The structure is flexible and flat, without dedicated HR, finance, or IT departments, and the role is predominantly home based. Candidates must live within easy reach of York, Leeds, Manchester, and London, with monthly travel to the York hub and occasional travel to client offices and networking events. The position also includes responsibility for supporting business development activity, and applicants must be eligible to work in the UK without Visa restrictions.
