Are you looking to enhance your professional skills and work with some of the very best names in tech?

Are you looking to develop your skills and realise your full potential?

Join our Strategic Framework Team

We work on strategic opportunities that directly shape Softcat's ability to grow in the public sector market. You'll be joining a high-impact, supportive environment where curiosity, ownership, and learning are valued.

Success. The Softcat Way.

There's a uniqueness to Softcat – what we do, how we do it and why we do it. That's because we help customers to use technology to succeed, by putting our employees first. We give everyone the chance to step up and show how much they can achieve. We succeed when all our people succeed.

Do you want to have an impact and join a business where you can make the difference?

We're looking for a Frameworks Bid Executive to join the team and support the successful delivery of our framework bids.

Frameworks are essential to Softcat's public sector business – more than 80% of our revenue in this space is transacted through frameworks.

You'll be working closely with experienced Framework Bid Managers to support the bid process' operational, administrative, and compliance aspects while developing the skills to step into bid management.

This is an ideal opportunity for someone starting their career who has great attention to detail, strong organisational skills, and a willingness to learn. You don't need prior bid experience – we'll train you.

As Framework Bid Executive, you'll be responsible for:

  • Selection Questionnaires – Completing or supporting PQQs, ESPDs, and other pre-qualification documentation.
  • Pipeline & Tracker Maintenance – scanning tender portals, updating internal trackers, and maintaining structured records.
  • Document & Submission Support – Reviewing documents, formatting responses, and managing submission materials.
  • Quality Checks - Supporting last-stage checks to ensure compliant, polished submissions.
  • Clarification Management – Helping track and respond to clarification questions throughout the bid process.

We'd love you to have:

  • Detail-oriented – you spot the small things that make a big difference. We've hidden a few minor errors in this document to test your attention to detail.
  • Organised & proactive – you can juggle multiple tasks and keep things on track
  • A fast learner – you pick things up quickly and enjoy figuring things out
  • A clear communicator – you're confident engaging with colleagues in meetings and over email.
  • Comfortable with tech – you're confident using Word, Excel, Outlook, SharePoint and picking up new tools.

Work in a way that works for you:

We recognise that everyone is different and that the way in which people want to work and deliver at their best is different for everyone too. In this role, we can offer the following flexible working patterns:

  • Hybrid working – 3 days in the office and 2 days working from home
  • Working flexible hours - flexing the times you start and finish during the day
  • Flexibility around school pick up and drop offs

Working with us

Wherever you work, we want you to experience the freedom and autonomy to realise your potential. You will feel supported by a team that celebrates individuality, encourages different perspectives, and embraces every background.
