Business/Bid Manager or Coordinator

We're PTW Architects. We've been shaping the built environment for over 130 years — delivering architecture and interiors across Australia and internationally. We're a studio that takes design seriously, and we bring that same care to how we present ourselves and win work.

We're looking for a New Business Manager or Coordinator to join our Sydney team — someone who can drive our bids and submissions end-to-end, and bring genuine graphic design talent to how we tell our story to clients.

What you'll be doing

• Managing the full lifecycle of bids, tenders and submissions — from EOI through to final lodgement and debrief
• Designing compelling, visually sophisticated proposal documents and pitch presentations (InDesign is your natural home)
• Working closely with our Directors to craft responses that land — clear writing, strong visuals, compelling narratives
• Building and maintaining our content library — project references, CVs, imagery — so we're always ready to move fast
• Contributing to the wider marketing programme: case studies, awards, social content and more

What we're looking for

• 3+ years of end-to-end bid coordination experience — architecture, engineering, planning or construction backgrounds are a great fit, but we're genuinely open to strong bid coordinators from other sectors. Transferable skills are very welcome here.
• Strong graphic design skills — particularly Adobe InDesign — and an eye for layout, typography and visual storytelling. We want someone to think outside the box for imaginative layouts.
• Good writing skills who can help turn complex technical content into clear, client-focused copy.
• Someone organised and calm under deadline pressure, who is proactive and takes ownership and pride in their work.
• Genuine curiosity about architecture and the built environment.

Ideal but not essential

• AEC sector experience
• Familiarity with NSW government procurement and tender formats
• Experience with infographics, masterplans or site plan visualisation

Not sure if you tick every box? Please apply anyway.

We mean it. We're not looking for a perfect CV — we're looking for the right person. If you have strong design skills and are building your bid experience, or you're an experienced bid coordinator who's developing their graphic capability, we'd genuinely love to hear from you. What matters most is your attitude, your eye for quality, and your enthusiasm for the built environment.
