  • Schedule and lead RFP kickoff meetings, develop detailed project plans, and collaborate with professionals on drafts, as required.
  • Draft original copy for proposals and marketing collateral based on initial interviews with professionals about relevant experience, including content from previous proposals.
  • Provide quality assurance and document management, including liaising with document production team to deliver the highest quality proposals and presentations.
  • Serve as the master editor on most RFP responses and high-value pitches/proposals in order to quality-check readability and consistency of messaging; convert contributors' content into a cohesive document with a clear, single voice.
  • Develop strategic and creative best practice guidelines for the pitching process, including gathering intelligence, audience analysis, and client/project need analysis, perception analysis, and key message development.
  • Work closely with the professionals and Marketing team on developing improved marketing content for presentations, proposals, and other business development communications.
  • Actively develop a strong understanding of the Firm, its departments and practice groups, and the industries it serves.
  • Share information and best practices around response development with the broader business development team and professionals.
  • Ensure new experience matters are captured in the Firm's experience management database, which is used to produce on-demand collateral and proposal content, and maintain the integrity and completeness of the information across divisions and ensure that the content is well written and easily searchable.
  • Manage the marketing databases and knowledge management tools, including the library of pitch components, the proposal resource center and ensure completed proposals are filed.
  • Track firm-wide pitch activities and produce reports evaluating key factors such as overall win/loss rates, growth areas by practice and industry and other reporting as requested by Firm management.
  • Develop over time a robust working knowledge of the health care content most commonly included in RFP responses, proposals, and pitches.



Qualifications:

  • A minimum of five to seven years of proposal management or proposal development experience with a sophisticated professional services firm or corporation
  • Superior writing, editing, and proofreading skills and a strong attention-to-detail
  • Excellent interpersonal skills, along with a "can-do" attitude that results in developing impactful relationships with others
  • Ability to develop over time a robust working knowledge of the health care content most commonly included in RFP responses, proposals, and pitches
  • Ability to be proactive and results-driven and a demonstrated ability to plan, organize, and implement goals and objectives to consistently meet deadlines and manage numerous competing priorities
  • Flexibility to travel and work additional hours on short notice when needed to meet department goals, and the willingness to work extended and irregular hours to perform essential duties
  • A demonstrated ability to be team player and establish a positive and confident approach partnered by tenacity and commitment
  • Strong influencing and negotiating skills and an ability to persuade others to deliver;
  • Ability to manage multiple projects with competing, shifting priorities and make decisions professionally and effectively
