Our work with Galliford Try
Our bid recruitment team first started working with Galliford Try in 2022. As a result of recent successes, the business was looking to grow their bids and pursuits team to handle the growing workload. As a result, Galliford Try got in touch with 3Search for support in their talent search. We have placed two Bid Writer roles in H2 of 2022...
- Bid Writer (North East)
- Bid Writer (Surrey)
A quick bid recruitment process
Our bid recruiters specialise in the construction and infrastructure industries and so was best equipped to support Galliford Try in their talent search.
The business had been looking for the right bid talent for a few months when they engaged 3Search. As the bid skill set is actively evolving, the company struggled to identify the talent needed for the Bid Writer roles. Having taken the time to understand the business and the role requirements, the team worked closely with the hiring manager at Galliford Try to identify high-calibre candidates. For each role, they had delivered short lists in a week and the roles were filled within a month.
We had been struggling for a while to fill a Bid Writer position directly, so one of our internal resourcing partners introduced me to Stuart at 3Search. What really impressed me is the level of service he provided at every stage – he listened to our requirements and sought suitable candidates just a short time after our initial briefing call. Both candidates taken through to the second interview were from Stuart, demonstrating the quality put forward. He was equally attentive and efficient through the feedback and offer stage, and we are so pleased and excited to have secured a high-calibre bid writer, who starts with us in January 2023. 3Search has now assisted us in filling two Work Winning roles to date, and I’d imagine they will be one of our first ports of call for future positions. I’d highly recommend them to anyone with Bid/Proposals recruitment needs.
Hear from our successful candidates...
I’ve recently been placed in a new role, starting in January, thanks to the support from 3Search and Stuart Watson. Stuart initially approached me via LinkedIn in late September and by early November I had secured the role. This was greatly helped by the patience and encouragement that Stuart showed throughout. When I had some early concerns, he listened and provided his view but, most importantly, he gave me space to think about things and to come to a decision that worked for me (from experience some recruiters can, unfortunately, be quite pushy). He was also very easy to get on with which made the process much easier. I highly recommend 3Search (and Stuart) to anyone that is looking for a new role.
