This role is crucial as you will collaborate closely with our team of technical subject matter experts to create high-quality content that accurately reflects our capabilities and experience. The position is hybrid, requiring you to work from our Tysons Corner office two days a week, allowing for a blend of in-office collaboration and remote work flexibility.

You will also schedule and facilitate proposal kickoff meetings, color team reviews, and other critical proposal events, while maintaining proposal calendars and project plans to ensure adherence to deadlines. Collaboration with subject matter experts, capture managers, and leadership will be essential to align strategies and ensure that proposals meet federal regulations, guidelines, and customer requirements. Additionally, you will monitor government procurement sources to identify RFI/RFQ/RFP opportunities that align with our capabilities and support growth-related activities such as attending industry events and networking opportunities.
