The Company
AMA Projects is a commercial construction company established in Canberra in 2010 by our three Directors. Since then, we have grown to include offices in Canberra, Melbourne and Brisbane, delivering projects across Australia.
We specialise exclusively in commercial construction and deliver a diverse range of projects including fitouts, refurbishments, services upgrades, small new builds, high-security facilities and infrastructure upgrades. Our clients include government departments, national institutions and private organisations.
Joining AMA Projects means becoming part of a collaborative, professional team that values technical capability, strong relationships and delivering high-quality outcomes. We provide a supportive working environment with genuine opportunities for professional development and career growth.
The Opportunity
AMA Projects is seeking a Bid Manager to join our tendering team in our Canberra office.
This role is ideal for someone with a background in construction project management or site delivery who enjoys the strategic side of projects (planning, problem solving, working to deadlines and building strong relationships), but may no longer feel the pull to be on site at 7am!
As Bid Manager, you will manage the tender process from start to finish, coordinating the many moving parts required to prepare high quality submissions. The role requires a strong understanding of construction methodology, exceptional writing skills and the ability to translate technical information into clear and compelling tender responses.
Working closely with our National Bid Manager, Estimators and Project Teams, you will play a key role in shaping project strategies and positioning AMA Projects for success.
