Role: Bid Project Manager (With Ad Agency Background) Location: Remote working until further notice A Little Bit About the Role: This is an opportunity to join as a Bid Project Manager, leading end-to-end pitch delivery across new business bids, RFPs, client-facing campaign pitches, and cross-market opportunities. Pitches are high-stakes, fast-moving, and rarely straightforward. You'll bring the structure, clarity, and coordination that turns ambitious briefs into compelling submissions, on time, every time.

You'll need to move between strategic oversight and granular detail, adapting your approach to what each pitch demands. AT its core, this is still a Creative Agency PM, however the experience of being involved in Pitches is a major part. WHAT YOU'LL DO Run end-to-end project management of pitches across new business, client-facing, and cross-market opportunities — from brief receipt through to final submission. Build and maintain detailed project plans, timelines, and resource schedules, ensuring all workstreams stay on track and stakeholders remain aligned. Coordinate cross-functional teams — creative, strategy, production, and senior leadership — facilitating clear communication, accountability, and decision-making at every stage.
