• Experience responding to RFPs for software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions within a technical or high-technology organization.

• Experience with government or public sector proposals is a strong asset.

• Professional Certification in Proposal Management (e.g. APMP Professional Certification) is highly valued.

• Experience leveraging CRM tools (e.g. Salesforce) is required, along with technical competence in Google Suite for business (Sheets, Docs, Slides).
