About Lucid

Lucid is a rapidly growing national engineering and asset advisory services practice employing over 300 staff across Australia.

Our purpose is Creating a Better World, which interlocks with our vision of becoming Australia's most forward-thinking, agile, and influential engineers and asset advisors. Our purpose and vision enable our people's commitment to innovation and sustainability.

About the Role

We're seeking a detail-driven and proactive Bid & Project Advisor to take ownership of end-to-end proposal development and project coordination for our Defence portfolio.

This is a hands-on role working closely with Defence leads and national stakeholders to deliver compelling EOIs, bids, and presentations that reflect Lucid's value and capability in the sector.

You'll drive the bid process - from early assessment and kick-off through to strategy, writing support, submission, and post-bid review - ensuring clarity, professionalism, and consistency every step of the way.

Key Responsibilities
  • Lead the end-to-end development of proposals, EOIs, and strategic client submissions within the Defence sector.
  • Assess size, scale, value and effort required to respond; coordinate go/no-go discussions and seek input from relevant stakeholders.
  • Facilitate bid kick-offs and workshops to align responsibilities, timelines, and develop winning themes.
  • Prepare and manage bid timelines, register submissions in Lucid's proposal register and Deltek CRM.
  • Coordinate regular checkpoints with bid contributors to keep submissions on track and escalate if needed.
  • Lead document formatting and review processes to ensure brand consistency, clarity, and professionalism.
  • Work with technical leads to update CVs, gather relevant case studies and align content with strategy.
  • Support shortlisted submissions with oral pitch preparation, including PowerPoint development and rehearsals.
  • Involve National Clients & Markets Lead and Bid Manager in major submissions or cross-state opportunities.
  • Conduct post-submission debriefs (win/loss), share lessons learned, and contribute to continuous improvement of national bid processes.
Skills & Capabilities
  • Strong MS Word, PowerPoint and Adobe InDesign skills.
  • Excellent written communication, editing, and proofing (non-technical content).
  • Project management and time-bound coordination experience.
  • Experience managing stakeholder input and navigating competing priorities.
  • Comfortable working with Defence bid structures and requirements.
  • Familiarity with government portals and online submission systems.
Key Attributes
  • Collaborative, calm and organised.
  • Learner mindset – embraces feedback and looks for better ways of working.
  • Strong attention to detail and pride in high-quality outputs.
  • Flexible, dependable, and solutions-focused.
