What does the future of bid recruitment look like?

Did you know that almost 50% of the UK bid community has changed job, role or company in the last 18 months?

The bid world is still a small one so the demand for Bid Managers is unrealistic for the number of bid professionals in the UK.

The boom after the pandemic meant that companies were doing crazy things to attract talent in 2021 and early 2022. With those individuals that moved still finding their feet and enjoying their new challenge there are still firms that need to hire bidding talent. 

If you're among them, make sure to check out our guide to bid recruitment in 2023. Here, we detail the permanent and interim salaries for all proposal, pursuit and bid jobs, as well as what benefits bid professionals are looking for. Empowering employers to hire the very best bid talent.
