Bids & Tender Specialist

We’re seeking a Bids & Tender Specialist to join a leading renewable energy company, contributing to the delivery of large-scale utility projects across Australia. This role is ideal for someone who is highly organised, detail-oriented, and passionate about supporting the growth of the clean energy sector.

In this position, you’ll assist across the entire tender lifecycle from pre-tender preparation through to submission and post-tender clarifications. Working closely with the Tender Manager and a range of internal stakeholders, you’ll help coordinate documentation, ensure compliance with submission requirements, and deliver high-quality proposals for major solar, battery energy storage (BESS), and hybrid energy projects.
Beyond tender coordination, you’ll also play a part in business development support by preparing presentations, maintaining up-to-date reference materials, and conducting market and competitor research to help strengthen the company’s position in Australia’s growing renewables industry.


What you’ll be doing:

• Coordinating tender submissions across all phases, ensuring deadlines and requirements are met.
• Liaising with engineering, commercial, legal, and project teams to compile and review documentation.
• Supporting bid compliance and quality control, including document formatting, tracking, and revisions.
• Assisting in the preparation of business development presentations, case studies, and reference projects.
• Conducting market research to provide insights into opportunities and competitor activity.

What we’re looking for:

• Experience in tender support, project coordination, or bid management, ideally within the renewables or large-scale infrastructure sector.
• Familiarity with procurement and bidding processes for major projects (utility-scale experience is highly regarded).
• Excellent organisational and time management skills, with a keen eye for detail.
• Strong communication skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to prepare professional reports and proposals.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint); exposure to tender management tools is a plus.
• A degree in Engineering (Electrical) is preferred but not mandatory.
