• Developing proposal schedules, coordinating content collection, and ensuring compliance with client requirements and evaluation criteria.
• Creating compelling layouts, graphics, schedules, project experience pages, and other visual content using Adobe Creative Suite.
• Supporting shortlist interviews through presentation development, rehearsal coordination, interview preparation, and debrief sessions.
• Maintaining marketing resources, pursuit materials, resumes, project descriptions, and proposal databases.
• Collaborating with business development and technical teams to support pursuit strategies and communicate Wiley|Wilson's value proposition.

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in Marketing, Communications, Business Administration, English, or a related field.
• Two or more years of experience in professional services marketing, preferably within the architecture, engineering, or construction industry.
• Experience preparing SF330 qualifications packages and other public-sector procurement submittals.
• Strong writing, editing, communication, organizational, and project management skills.
• Proficiency with Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop) and Microsoft Office.

The role requires regular collaboration with team members across multiple offices. Hybrid work flexibility is available.
