We're expanding into the US public sector and need someone to own that pursuit end to end.

  • Run go/no-go calls on each opportunity: read the solicitation, flag eligibility and set-aside requirements, and recommend which to pursue
  • Build and submit compliant bid responses -compliance matrices, required forms, past-performance write-ups, and pricing inputs — before deadline.
  • Handle registrations and vendor onboarding (SAM.gov / UEI, state vendor portals, education purchasing cooperatives)
  • Map prime contractors and cooperatives we can partner or subcontract under to enter set-aside work
  • Track the pipeline, deadlines, and outcomes, and improve win rate over time
What we're looking for
  • ~2–3 years in bid/proposal work, US staffing presales, or government tender response ( SAM.gov or US state/education portal experience(
  • Sharp reading comprehension: you can digest a 120-page solicitation and pull out what actually matters
  • Obsessive about deadlines and compliance.
  • Clear written English and comfort assembling structured documents
  • Self-directed you can run this entire function without anyone standing over you.
  • Nice to have: experience with language-services or professional-services bids
