• Proposal and document management from conception to final delivery of bid packages (research, collaboration, editing, and successfully meeting strict internal and external deadlines).

• Proof reading to an exceptional standard to include grammatical, technical and brand accuracy.

• Assist with other sales support materials, as needed, such as ad hoc presentations, topical documents and updates, technical samples, and other materials to support competitive and non-competitive new business opportunities.
