Some of your main responsibilities will be;

  • Draft, review, proofread and amend content for bid responses, in line with our value proposition and win themes, drawing on our bid library as appropriate for initial draft content, CVs, etc.
  • Lead the Global Bid Team support on less complex project/mandate bids, working directly with partners and other stakeholders including the graphics team, practice/industry/client BD, compliance, pricing, etc, to deliver high quality, client focussed bids that maximise our chances of winning
  • Receive the bid request documentation and work with lead partner/s and other bid response team members to commence the response process, develop and communicate the work plan and project manage contributions and submission requirements throughout the bid lifecycle, including for bid documents, presentations, requests for further information, BAFO negotiations, etc.
  • Contribute to the design of graphical aspects of proposal documents and presentation decks, using our bid templates and ensuring compliance with our visual identity. You will ensure the design elements support our messaging, working with our Graphic Design team as needed for complex design elements


As part of our commitment to driving bid excellence and supporting the continuing professional development of our team, Ashurst is a corporate member of APMP.

About you:

To be successful in this role, you will have the following skills and experience:

  • Experience of proposal writing and management in either a legal, professional services or other relevant environment, and experience of producing written content for proposals. Strong bid process knowledge, writing and project management skills; able to transform technical information into clear, compelling, succinct content for proposals to various audience types (including financial institutions, major corporates and public sector)
  • Ability to articulate differentiators, benefits and win themes (our value proposition). Good grasp of bid best practice as it relates to written proposals and presentations, especially the requirement to focus content on the customer/client (their needs and concerns)
  • Keen eye for design, able to improve the visual impact and aesthetic properties of proposal materials

What makes Ashurst a great place to work?
We offer you all the things you should expect from an international law firm, some of which include:

  • competitive remuneration with the flexibility to reward high performance;
- flexible working;
- complimentary gym memberships;
- corporate health plans;
- a global professional development offering for all employees; and
- an industry-leading programme that celebrates diversity and inclusion.


We are committed to delivering positive impacts to our communities through our Social Impact programme, with a strong emphasis on working with First Nations people through our pro bono practice.

We aim to recruit, retain and promote the best people from the widest possible talent pools.

We are committed to offering a safe and welcoming environment for all employees to ensure they are supported to work at their best.


Beyond this, what sets Ashurst apart from others is our global strength, our drive to innovate and collaborate, and our commitment to excellence.

It is these values that make Ashurst a unique place to work.
