  • Facilitate strategy discussions to identify client-centered value propositions and differentiators
  • Write creative, persuasive executive summaries that follow best-practice approaches
  • Partner with a graphic designer to develop engaging finalist presentation materials

What you need to have:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, Journalism, Marketing, English, Communications, or a related field; or equivalent professional experience
  • 2-4 years in marketing, sales, or related field; experience in professional services or consulting is a plus!
  • Strong project management, writing, and editing skills
  • Ability to manage competing deadlines and adapt to shifting priorities
  • Detail-oriented while maintaining a big-picture perspective
  • Comfortable with ambiguity and frequent change
  • High sense of personal accountability and self-motivation
  • Collaborative mindset, open to team feedback
  • Proficient in Microsoft 365, including Word, PowerPoint, and Excel

What makes you stand out?

  • A thirst for knowledge and passion for trying new things
  • Experience strategizing for digital deliverables (microsites, videos, etc.)
  • Familiarity with SharePoint, Qorusdocs, or online bid procurement tools (such as Ariba)

Why join our team:

  • We help you be your best through professional development opportunities, interesting work and supportive leaders.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
