Lead the development of high‑quality written proposal responses and related client‑requested materials, ensuring clarity, relevance, and competitiveness
Collaborate with Growth & Business Relationship, Proposal Management, Recruiting, and subject matter experts to gather, validate, and synthesize accurate and current information
Translate complex technical, operational, and business concepts into clear, client‑centric narratives
Ensure proposal content aligns with Momentum’s brand voice, messaging standards, formatting guidelines, and solicitation requirements
Develop, maintain, and continuously improve a centralized proposal content library, including reusable content and writing best practices
Identify opportunities to improve proposal efficiency and quality through templates, tools, automation, and responsible use of AI‑enabled writing support
Review proposal feedback and outcomes to refine messaging and improve future proposal quality
Support broader growth initiatives, including executive summaries, case studies, and tailored client communications
Manage multiple concurrent proposal efforts while maintaining a high standard of accuracy, attention to detail, and deadline adherence
