  • Support development of executive summaries, technical approaches, staffing narratives, and past performance sections 
  • Coordinate Pink/Red/Gold reviews and final production activities 
  • Manage final assembly and submission readiness 

Subconsultant / Data Call Support 

  • Respond to data calls from prime consultants 
  • Coordinate resumes, project sheets, certifications, forms, and teaming documentation

Qualifications 

Required 

  • 5+ years of A/E/C proposal management experience 
  • Strong understanding of public-sector proposal processes and compliance requirements 
  • Experience supporting DOT, transit, municipal, planning, or infrastructure pursuits 
  • Excellent organizational skills and ability to manage multiple deadlines simultaneously 
  • Strong editing, formatting, and quality-control capabilities 
  • Ability to work independently with minimal oversight in a deadline-driven environment 
  • High attention to detail and professional judgment 

Preferred 

  • APMP certification or Shipley training 
  • Experience with transportation engineering or infrastructure consulting proposals
