Description
Meade is a full-service design firm specializing in innovative and cost-effective engineering solutions for data centers, cloud providers, and large-scale construction projects. Our team of expert engineers, designers, and consultants is dedicated to delivering high-quality, reliable, and sustainable solutions that drive the industry forward.
At Meade, we foster a collaborative and dynamic work environment where creativity, technical excellence, and professional growth are at the forefront. We take pride in our commitment to innovation, efficiency, and superior service-values that not only define our projects but also shape our workplace culture.
If you're looking to be part of a company that values expertise, teamwork, and cutting-edge design, we'd love to hear from you!
Job Description:
Meade is looking for a Senior Marketing Proposal Manager to run our proposal function, full stop. That means owning which pursuits we chase, how we tell our story, and whether what goes out the door actually gives us a shot at winning. You'll lead the proposal process, work directly with principals, and have the judgment to build a clear, data-backed recommendation on which pursuits are worth the firm's resources. Final go/no-go rests with leadership, but this person's read on fit and win probability should be the input that decision starts from.
This is a senior seat. We're not looking for someone to format documents. We're looking for someone to make the call on where our resources go and defend that call in the room.
Job Duties:
Pipeline strategy
You'll own the firm's opportunity pipeline strategy, prioritizing pursuits based on fit, win probability, and strategic value to the firm's vertical and geographic growth goals, and build the recommendation leadership uses to make the final go/no-go call. That means leading decision meetings with principals and BD leadership, bringing market intelligence and competitive analysis to the table, with a clear recommendation and the data behind it.
Proposal leadership and content strategy
You'll build win themes with principals and project managers, turning technical capability into a story a client actually wants to read. You'll oversee every proposal, SOQ, and RFP response for consistency and quality, build out a real content library (boilerplate, resumes, past performance) so we stop rebuilding from scratch every time, work with the bid project manager to manage subconsultant and teaming partner input, and lead interview prep; presentations and coaching included.
Quality and process
You're the last set of eyes before it goes to leadership. You'll set the QA/QC standard, enforce it, and keep improving our templates and process so the team gets faster and the win rate goes up.
Cross-functional work
You'll work closely with BD and principal staff to keep proposal strategy tied to actual business development goals, own win/loss tracking, run debriefs that produce real lessons, not just a rubber-stamp meeting, and report pipeline health and win rates to leadership.
Minimum Quaifications:
- 7+ years in AEC proposals/marketing, with real time experience inside an engineering firm, architecture firm, or general contractor.
- Bachelor’s degree in marketing, communications, architecture, engineering, or a related field.
- A track record leading complex, high-value RFP/RFQ pursuits start to finish.
- Experience managing or working inside a proposal team.
- Advanced skills in InDesign, Word, and PowerPoint; Adobe Creative Suite is a plus.
- Executive presence; you can sit across from a principal and hold your position.
- Writing and editing chops that turn technical detail into a narrative someone actually wants to read.
Compensation & Benefits:
This position is available to candidates residing in the following states: AL, AZ, AR, FL, GA, IN, MI, MO, NV, OH, OK, SC, TX, UT, VA, WA, WV; however, preference will be given to Tempe, AZ. Compensation and benefits are subject to eligibility requirements and may vary based on location and applicable laws. The pay range for this position will be provided in accordance with applicable state and local laws. Actual compensation will be determined based on factors such as skills, experience, qualifications, internal equity, geographic location, and business needs.
The estimate pay ranges for this role are as follows:
- Virginia: $119,800-$154,000
- Washington: $125,600-$161,400
Eligible employees may participate in Meade-sponsored benefit programs, including medical, dental, vision, life insurance, disability coverage, 401(k), paid time off, paid holidays, and other company-sponsored benefits.
