Government Proposal Manager

The Proposal Manager (PM) collaborates with the Director of Consulting Services to plan, staff, and execute all types of government proposals (RFI/RFP responses, Multi-award vehicle responses, Market surveys, etc.) on behalf of WinBiz Clients. Depending on the complexity of the proposal, the PM may be managing a mixed team of WinBiz and Client writers, designers, SMEs, and stakeholders through all phases of an RFP response, or they may be the only WinBiz resource on the scene. The PM is more than an administrator, however, and must also be able to “roll their sleeves up” and format a resume, edit a draft, or interview a SME when the need arises.

The PM must be skilled in proposal strategy and industry best practices (e.g. Shipley and APMP) and must have a consultative approach to teaching clients best practices as they execute. The PM must be able to manage a varied workload, oversee a virtual team, and communicate effectively across all modern media, including text and web conferencing. A successful PM must be adept at adjusting to the various communication styles and processes of clients, and they must be comfortable working with small and mid-size enterprises. We are seeking consultants who are cool under pressure and can diffuse the stressful atmosphere of responding to proposals under strict deadlines.
