Bid Specialist

Bid & Proposal Coordinator – Engineering & Construction

Denver, Colorado | Primarily office-based | Permanent

$75,000 base salary + benefits

Help a growing US engineering business compete for major industrial projects.

We’re looking for someone who has helped turn technical information into clear, compliant proposals and kept submissions moving towards a deadline.

You might currently be a Proposal Coordinator, Bid Coordinator, Proposal Specialist or an AEC Marketing Coordinator with substantial hands-on tender experience.

Global Engineering Talent is supporting the next phase of growth for a US EPCM business backed by a global engineering group with more than 6,500 employees across 65 offices worldwide.

Established in the US around two years ago, the business is now expanding following two acquisitions. Its US track record includes supporting delivery of a $1bn manufacturing facility in 18 months, with further opportunities across manufacturing, energy, oil and gas, and data centres.

This is your opportunity to join while the team is growing, work directly with senior leaders and engineers, and help shape how the business presents itself to major clients.

What you’ll do

• Coordinate RFQ, RFP and tender responses from receipt through to submission.
• Break down client requirements into clear checklists, responsibilities and deadlines.
• Gather and organise input from engineering, project delivery and commercial teams.
• Write, edit and format proposals, project case studies, team CVs and capability statements.
• Check submissions for compliance, accuracy, consistency and presentation.
• Maintain proposal templates, reusable content and opportunity records.
• Keep contributors on track and flag missing information before it threatens a deadline.

What you’ll bring

Hands-on experience preparing formal bids or proposals is essential.

You should be able to explain your contribution to a completed tender, including the documents you produced, the people you coordinated and the checks you made before submission.

We’re particularly interested in experience within engineering consultancies, construction, EPC/EPCM, architecture, infrastructure or other technical professional services. Relevant technical tender experience from other sectors will also be considered.

You’ll need:

• Strong writing, editing and document-production skills.
• Experience interpreting RFP/RFQ requirements and coordinating technical contributors.
• Confidence managing several deadlines and following up with busy colleagues.
• Strong Microsoft Word and PowerPoint skills.
• Attention to detail across document versions, submission instructions and final checks.

Adobe InDesign and CRM experience would be useful.

Why join?

You’ll have direct access to the people building the US business and exposure to bids for major capital projects.

As the pipeline and team grow, there is scope to take on greater proposal ownership and develop towards senior proposal or bid-management responsibilities. You’ll also have the opportunity to improve templates, content and processes from an early stage.

Package and location

• $75,000 base salary plus benefits.
• Permanent position, primarily based in the Denver office.
• Applicants must be authorised to work in the US without employer sponsorship now or in future.
