The role

Make the difference in tenders. Your way.

What if you, as a Bid Manager at BAM Infra, get the space for your own way of working, because there are multiple paths to a winning tender? Ideally, you are involved early: even before the publication of the guidelines, you provide direction to the MEAT approach and team formation. From that line, you safeguard both content and process and ensure one clear core message that resonates through all client contacts, the main choices, and MEAT plans. Whether you are the course setter, bite into contract documents and approaches analytically, or excel as a coach for writers and experts: with us, you get the space to make a visible difference with your own style.

Make it possible

As a Bid Manager, you are the director of the quality proposal: you ensure that all information comes together in one clear strategy. You switch between process, content, and text. In the market, this role is sometimes referred to as 'MEAT manager'. At BAM Infra, you work closely as a Bid Manager with the tender manager, who is responsible for the procurement process and the coordination of the tender team.
Concretely, this means that you:

  • Determine together with the tender manager how you will approach this tender: which route suits this client and task, and who you need for it.
  • Direct the quality proposal from A to Z: you safeguard the MEAT strategy, ensure sharpness in choices, and process the core message consistently in all plans and presentations.
  • Strategically prepare client and dialogue meetings, sharpen the content, and help the team to convey this convincingly.
  • Coach your colleagues on the job in the field of tender strategy, including strategic thinking and persuasive writing.

Within the position, there is room to develop yourself and add value to our tender methodology. There is time and space to reflect together, improve, and continue building our way of working.

We offer you

  • Flexibility to shape your own work-life balance: working from home, remote working, flexible hours, and special leave for, among other things, caregiving or parenthood.
  • Possibility to work part-time or full-time.
  • A permanent contract with a monthly salary between € 5,580 - € 8,100 (based on 40 hours, excl. holiday allowance, in accordance with CAO Bouw & Infra and depending on age and experience) with opportunities for growth.
  • 25 vacation days + 15 ATV days.
  • Good travel allowance.

You recognize yourself in this if

We would like to give you the freedom to use your own style for a winning tender. In doing so, you will use these experiences and skills:

  • You have extensive experience (at least 5 years) in the tender world and a strong affinity with the infra industry.
  • You are an analytical and strategic thinker who quickly grasps complex information and translates it into a clear course and sharp choices.
  • You have a strong will to win and take that extra step to make the difference. In doing so, you are not afraid to take a stand and you communicate sharply and convincingly, both in text and in (client) meetings.
  • You derive pleasure from making others better: you like to help colleagues grow in their profession and give feedback in a way that people can truly use.
