Job Title: Bid Coordinator (Part-Time)
Company: Lead & Accelerate Ltd
Location: Remote
Hours: 3 days per week, 10:00am — 3:00pm (flexible days to suit you)
Hourly Rate: £12.31 per hour
About Us
Lead & Accelerate is a fast-growing bid management consultancy helping businesses across the UK win public sector contracts, frameworks and tenders. We work with clients across a wide range of industries — from security and fire safety through to construction, facilities management and technology — supporting them from onboarding through to final submission.
We are expanding and looking for the right person to grow with us.
About the Role
This is a brilliant opportunity for someone looking to take their first or early steps into the world of bid writing and public sector procurement. You don’t need to be an expert — you need to be organised, a strong communicator, willing to learn and genuinely interested in developing a career in bid writing.
As our Bid Coordinator, you will support our bid writers and account management team across a range of tasks, helping to keep our submissions on track and our clients well supported. Over time, with the right attitude and commitment, this role has a clear and genuine pathway into a full bid writing position within the business.
What You Will Be Doing
- Supporting the bid writing team with the coordination and preparation of tender submissions
- Tracking deadlines, portals and submission requirements across multiple clients
- Researching tender opportunities and summarising requirements for the team
- Assisting with gathering supporting documents, policies and evidence from clients
- Uploading and managing documents on procurement portals
- Maintaining accurate and up-to-date records across our client tracker
- Drafting and proofreading sections of bid responses under guidance from senior bid writers
- Communicating professionally with clients to chase outstanding information
- Supporting the onboarding process for new clients
What We Are Looking For
- Some experience in an administrative, coordination or writing role — bid writing experience is a bonus but not essential
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- Highly organised with excellent attention to detail
- Comfortable managing multiple tasks and deadlines simultaneously
- A genuine interest in public sector procurement, tendering or bid writing
- Proactive, self-motivated and able to work independently in a remote environment
- Comfortable using Microsoft Office, Google Workspace or similar tools
- A positive attitude and a desire to learn and grow within the business
What We Offer
- £12.31 per hour
- Flexible working — choose your own 3 days to suit your lifestyle outside of work
- A genuine career pathway into a full bid writing role as the business grows
- The opportunity to join a fast-growing consultancy at an exciting stage of its development
- A supportive and collaborative team environment
- Real responsibility and variety from day one
