  • Proven experience in writing compelling documents or proposals in a collaborative, fast-paced environment
  • Ability to manage multiple, competing tasks and prioritise workload

  • Highly desirable: project management experience to effectively manage the proposal process, from analysis and requirements to solution definition, project planning, meeting facilitation, draft development, and final proposal production 
  • Desirable: experience working with proposal automation software such as Responsive
  • Desirable: familiarity with the sales process, including experience working with sales organisations
  • Excellent Microsoft Word skills, and solid knowledge of Excel and Acrobat Pro
  • Must be organised, flexible, and self-directed to meet deadlines
