- Working with subject matter experts and senior leaders across the firm to understand what the client needs, and articulate client-focused solutions that win the work
- Supporting projects that continually improve bidding capability across all our teams.
Ideally you’ll have:
- Tertiary qualifications in marketing, communications, PR or journalism
- Experience working in a marketing, communications or business development role
- Strong writing, proofreading and editing skills, with exceptional attention to detail
- Excellent communication skills, with the ability to develop good working relationships with team members at every level
- Confidence coordinating input from subject matter experts, including senior leaders
- The ability to effectively manage multiple tasks simultaneously and meet fixed deadlines
- The ability to quickly learn new software, systems and processes
- A high level of proficiency in Microsoft Office (particularly Word), including document design, layout and formatting
- Basic proficiency in Adobe InDesign and Photoshop (desired but not mandatory)
- Bid development experience and / or experience working in a professional services firm (well-regarded but not mandatory).
