• Analyze proposal document packages from cities, identifying key priorities, criteria, eligibility, and scoring

• Gather insights and build competitive strategies through productive partnerships with our local operations and policy teams as well as a wide range of other cross-functional partners, spread across several countries and time zones

• Build on our established best practices, toolkits, and content library in collaboration with the other proposal team members

• Travel to our most important markets on an as-needed basis to strategize and plan for upcoming projects with pre-tender workshops, consultants, and brainstorms with local teams

About You:

• 5+ years of relevant experience, preferably with a focus on content writing and project management

• Experience with reading and analyzing regulations, bid documents, and/or city planning documents

• Excellent writing skills, with a love for the written word. You have a knack for resonating with a target audience, whether it’s executive leadership, elected officials, community organizations, or local government staff

• Bachelor’s degree required (focus on language, journalism, or literature, or other related fields like public administration, urban planning, or transportation), with an advanced degree preferred

• Public or private sector experience in procurement is a plus
