Job description

Bid Writer / Business Development Coordinator

Head Office, Rochdale (Hybrid — branch network & remote working)

35K-45K DOE plus Bonus

Full Time, Permanent


Are you a brilliant writer with a talent for winning business?

Do you know how to turn a complex tender spec into a compelling, compliant bid and enjoy the buzz of a submission going in on deadline? If you've got a background in bid writing or business development and want to bring that skill to a growing, values-led care provider, this could be the role for you.

We're looking for a Bid Writer / Business Development Coordinator to join Routes Healthcare's BD team. You'll own our tender pipeline end-to-end — from spotting opportunities on procurement portals through to writing, coordinating, and submitting winning bids — while also supporting the wider team with research, events, and CRM.

A little about us

At Routes, we're more than just a healthcare provider, we're a team that genuinely cares about our clients, and each other. For over 15 years, we've delivered care that supports people to live independently, safely, and with dignity in their own homes.

What you can expect from us:

  • A varied role with real ownership of the tender pipeline
  • Hybrid working — flexibility between home and Head Office and our branch network
  • A collaborative, supportive BD team
  • Genuine opportunity to shape Routes Healthcare's growth and reputation
  • Ongoing professional development
  • Buy and sell holiday scheme

What the role involves:

  • Leading the writing and submission of tender responses for LA, NHS, and private commissioners
  • Managing the full bid lifecycle, from opportunity identification to post-tender feedback
  • Maintaining a library of bid content, case studies, and quality statements
  • Coordinating input from Registered Managers, clinical leads, and senior leadership
  • Monitoring procurement portals for new opportunities and keeping supplier profiles up to date
  • Supporting BD presentations, pitches, market research, and CRM administration
  • Helping plan and deliver commissioner days, networking events, and sector conferences

What we're looking for:

  • 3–5 years’ experience in tender writing, bid management, or business development — ideally in health and social care, homecare, or a regulated sector
  • A track record of producing successful bid submissions
  • Excellent written communication skills, with the ability to write clearly and to word limits
  • Strong organisational skills and the ability to juggle multiple deadlines
  • Experience using procurement portals to track and respond to opportunities
  • Confidence engaging senior stakeholders to gather input
  • Full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle with business insurance

This role is subject to satisfactory references and an Enhanced DBS check.

Apply today and help shape how Routes Healthcare wins business across the North.
