- Prepare reports, presentations, meeting notes, and documentation to support Growth Team activities.
- Support responses to market surveys, RFIs, pre-solicitations, solicitations, RFPs, RFQs, and related requests.
- Maintain SharePoint libraries, templates, reusable content, and opportunity documentation using structured folders, metadata, naming conventions, and knowledge management practices.
