AI Summary

The Bid and Proposal Specialist will manage the end-to-end pursuit process from solicitation receipt to submission, ensuring compliance and high-quality responses. They will coordinate with subject matter experts, conduct client research, and develop persuasive content to improve win rates.
Main Objective of the Position  
Our mission is to Simplify Life. avertra helps highly regulated, customer-centric industries, led by utilities and energy, deliver exceptional experiences through our MiCustomer platform and digital services.

As we pursue more opportunities across the industries we serve, we are creating a dedicated home for our bids and proposals. This role lets us compete for more deals and raise the quality of every submission. You will be the person who makes a pursuit run: reading the solicitation closely, holding the team to every requirement, and shaping a response that speaks directly to what the evaluator is scoring.

You will manage pursuits from the moment a solicitation arrives (an RFI, RFP, RFQ, or equivalent) through to submission. That means building the compliance checklist and schedule, researching the issuing organization to sharpen positioning, drafting and refining persuasive content (using AI tools to move faster, then verifying it), and coordinating subject matter experts across teams so every input lands complete and on time. Over time, as you learn our way of working and the industries we serve, you will grow into owning the bid process end to end and building the reusable playbook and content library behind it.

Proposals run on deadlines, and some of them are US-facing, so a flexible schedule with occasional evening meetings is part of the picture. You can work US hours if you prefer, or split your day in a way that keeps you available when it matters.

Main Job Responsibilities

Bid Ownership & Orchestration
  • Run pursuits from receipt of the solicitation through to submission, building the proposal schedule, coordinating the kickoff, and driving review checkpoints.
  • Contribute to the bid or no-bid decision with a clear read of fit, requirements, and effort. Full ownership builds over time and is not expected from day one.
Compliance & Quality Assurance
  • Build a compliance matrix for every solicitation, tracking each requirement, question, format rule, and portal step to completion.
  • Run a final compliance and consistency sweep before submission so nothing required is missed.
Client & Opportunity Research
  • Research the issuing organization's priorities, strategic initiatives, and operating environment, and translate the insight into positioning and win themes we can leverage.
Persuasive Content Development
  • Draft, edit, and refine narrative responses, executive summaries, workbooks, questionnaires, and forms, written to the evaluation criteria.
  • Leverage AI tools to accelerate drafting and research, then verify accuracy, compliance, and voice before anything is submitted.
Cross-Functional Coordination
  • Align and follow up with subject matter experts across departments so input is gathered, complete, and delivered on schedule to the standard the response requires.
Process & Knowledge Management
  • Establish our response methodology: how questions are structured, answered, and evidenced, supported by a reusable content library, templates, and approved messaging.



Requirements

Meticulous
  • Proposals live and die on the details. You catch the missing form, the wrong word limit, the inconsistent name, every time, because a compliance slip can disqualify strong work.
Calm Under Deadline
  • Tight, immovable timelines are the norm, and you stay organized and steady when several are converging at once.
Evaluator-Centric Writer
  • You write how the response will be scored, turning technical input into clear answers that give the evaluator exactly what they are looking for.
Curious Researcher
  • You dig into an issuing organization's priorities and incumbents, and translate what you learn into a sharper win theme.
Diplomatic Driver
  • You chase input from senior colleagues who do not report to you, and you do it in a way that keeps the relationship strong.
AI-Enabled and Ambitious
  • You use AI to work faster, verify everything before it goes in, and you want to grow into owning the whole bid function.
Systems Builder
  • You turn one-off effort into something repeatable. Every pursuit should leave behind a template, an answer, or a lesson that makes the next one faster.
Knowledge, Skills and Abilities
  • Strong written English and the ability to write clearly under tight constraints.
  • Comfortable following up with senior colleagues who do not report to you to keep deadlines on track.
  • Willingness to use AI tools in your workflow.
  • Highly organized and detail-oriented, comfortable managing versions, checklists, and moving parts.
Education
  • Bachelor's degree in Business, B2B Marketing, Engineering, or a related field.
Experience
  • 2 to 4 years, with any experience in business development, proposals, bids, B2B or product marketing, or a related field. It does not need to be a full two years specialized in proposals.
Preferences
  • Background in enterprise software or SaaS.
  • Experience with public sector or government tenders and their procurement rules.
  • Familiarity with AI tools such as Claude Code (can be taught).
Travel
  • 25-50%
Work Schedule
  • Flexible, with occasional evening meetings for US overlap. Full US hours are an option, or split your day as long as key deadlines and meetings are covered.


Benefits

  • You'll join a global family of passionate people building a sustainable, scalable ecosystem committed to using logic to create a better experience.
  • You will be empowered to drive change, challenge the status quo, and innovate without bureaucracy slowing you down.
  • We will invest in you, with a clear path from contributor to owning the bid process and its playbook.
