Speculative Application – Bid Manager (Architecture Practice)
Drive the win strategy, marshal resources, and convert design vision into new commissions.

Who We Are
Architecture Social is a recruitment partner and professional community that supports architects, designers —and the work-winning specialists who secure their next landmark projects. Our practice clients rely on Bid Managers to shape pursuit strategy, mentor coordinators, and deliver compliant, compelling submissions. Even when those studios aren’t advertising, they ask us to keep them informed about outstanding bid leadership—so we maintain an active shortlist.

What our clients typically ask for
5–10 years’ end-to-end bid management experience within architecture, engineering, or construction consultancies

Ownership of complex frameworks and major project tenders: defining win themes, storyboards and review gates

Confident team leadership: coaching coordinators and subject experts, chairing colour-team reviews and enforcing brand standards

Expert document production skills in Adobe InDesign (or similar) plus clear copy-editing that turns technical input into persuasive narratives

Advanced portal & platform fluency: e-tendering portals (Proactis, Delta eSourcing, Jaggaer) and project information systems such as BIW, Asite and Aconex for secure document control

Commercial acumen: estimating bid costs, advising on fee strategy and tracking conversion metrics via CRM or pipeline dashboards

Stakeholder diplomacy: aligning architects, consultants and directors under tight deadlines while keeping clients informed

If your track record shows strategic thinking, deadline discipline and an impressive win rate, we want to hear from you.
