You'll bring creativity, organization, and strategic thinking to every stage of the proposal process - from planning and writing to design and final delivery. In this role, you will manage multiple projects simultaneously, coordinate diverse contributors, and ensure that every proposal reflects our brand, capabilities, and vision with clarity and precision.

• Write, edit, and refine proposal content to ensure clarity, consistency, and alignment with brand voice and messaging.
• Ensure all deliverables meet the highest quality standards in grammar, punctuation, readability, and tone.
• Suggest new approaches and enhancements to improve proposal storytelling, structure, and effectiveness.

• Use Adobe InDesign to create visually engaging proposal documents within standardized brand templates.
• Ensure proposals maintain brand consistency in graphics, layout, typography, and design elements.
• Organize and maintain a comprehensive library of proposal assets, including photos, templates, and supporting materials.

• Act as a central point of contact for proposal contributors, coordinating input from cross-functional teams.
• Communicate progress and updates clearly throughout the proposal lifecycle to ensure alignment and transparency.
• Provide guidance and expertise to internal partners, serving as a resource for proposal best practices.

• Contribute to ongoing improvements in proposal development workflows, tools, and templates.
• Explore opportunities to enhance visual presentation, streamline content creation, and strengthen proposal win strategies.

• Bachelor's Degree in Marketing, Business Management, General Business, or a related field.
• 4+ years of professional experience in proposal development, marketing, or business development support.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills with a keen eye for detail.
• Strong project coordination skills with the ability to manage competing priorities and deadlines.
• Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite, especially InDesign, and Microsoft Office (Word, Teams, SharePoint).
• Proven ability to collaborate across decentralized, cross-functional teams.

• Experience in the foodservice, hospitality, or facilities management industries.
