About The Position

Allego is hiring a Security & AI Proposal Specialist to help customers evaluate and approve Allego as a trusted vendor, including its AI-powered capabilities. The role primarily coordinates customer security and AI due diligence, while also supporting RFPs and other proposal activities. The specialist owns the response process, knowledge base, and response content, working in partnership with Security, IT, and Legal, which own Allego’s security and privacy programs and policies. This hands-on, collaborative position combines project coordination, security knowledge, knowledge management, and customer communication.

Success means customers complete due diligence more efficiently, security and AI approvals create fewer adoption and revenue bottlenecks, and internal teams can focus on their core responsibilities.
