The posting

Senior EU Funding Proposal Specialist

Location: Remote

Type: Permanent full-time / Freelance collaboration

Are you a skilled EU funding proposal writer who knows how to turn complex ideas into compelling, winning applications? Do you thrive in international environments, enjoy building project narratives, and understand what evaluators are looking for? We are looking for a senior profile who takes initiative, writes with precision, and knows the EU funding landscape inside out.

If you are looking for autonomy, strategic impact, and real growth opportunities, this is the right place for you.

About us

We are an internationally oriented team specialized in the development, preparation, and implementation of EU projects. We collaborate with research organizations, companies, and public institutions across Europe, co-creating projects with real impact.

Your role

As a Senior EU Funding Proposal Specialist, you will lead the preparation and development of high-quality EU funding proposals — and where relevant, support the subsequent implementation of successfully approved projects.​

Key responsibilities

  • Lead the development and writing of project proposals, ensuring full compliance with EU funding guidelines and evaluation criteria;
  • Translate complex project ideas into clear, compelling narratives that resonate with evaluators;
  • Strategically structure proposals across all sections — concept, methodology, impact, budget, and consortium;
  • Liaise with key stakeholders, including research institutes, companies, and public institutions, to gather input and align project stories;
  • Support project implementation following successful approval, including reporting and progress monitoring.

Professional qualifications

  • Proven track record of successfully submitted EU funding proposals across programmes such as Horizon Europe, Eureka, Digital Europe, Innovation Fund, Connecting Europe Facility, LIFE, Interreg, or similar (please specify relevant programmes and success rate in your CV/cover letter);
  • Deep understanding of the EU funding landscape, including grant mechanisms, eligibility criteria, and evaluation processes;
  • Exceptional written English — proposal writing is the core of this role;
  • Experience coordinating multidisciplinary consortia and managing stakeholder input;
  • Additional European languages are a significant asset.

You will stand out if you:

  • Can demonstrate a portfolio of funded proposals across multiple EU programmes;
  • Have experience with large-scale or complex consortium projects;​
  • Understand the R&D&I environment and can write convincingly about innovation and impact;​
  • Have experience in project implementation in addition to proposal writing.​

Additional expectations

  • Leverage AI tools to optimize proposal development workflows;
  • Continuously develop expertise through professional literature and workshops;​
  • Mentor junior colleagues in proposal writing and EU funding strategy.

What should your application include?

Submit your CV along with a brief description of your proposal writing experience (in English). Highlight specific proposals, your role in developing them, the programmes targeted, and the outcomes achieved.

What we offer

  • Meaningful work on international projects with real-world impact;
  • Collaboration with leading partners and institutions across Europe;
  • A dynamic, project-driven environment where your expertise truly matters;
  • Opportunities for continuous personal and professional growth;
  • A stimulative remuneration package with performance-based variable pay;
  • Flexible working hours and a fully remote work arrangement;
  • Participation in impactful and innovative EU projects;
  • A collaborative, supportive team that values initiative and expertise.

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.
