This fosters the spirit of inclusion and opens the opportunity for diverse perspectives to impact and shape our delivery model and grow the culture of our company.

• Responsible for reviewing and interpreting RFP and RFQ documents and determining requirements for successful proposal submission – from Kick-off meeting to final submission.
• Develop persuasive proposals with tailored content and impeccable design.
• Write, proofread, edit, and format proposal content which may include adapting existing content, and boilerplates to ensure a cohesive proposal. Conduct quality assurance checks on proposals and marketing materials.

• Manage multiple concurrent initiatives and thrive in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.
• Work closely with our technical staff and Leadership to translate visions into compelling messages that convey Kasian’s strengths and differentiating approach.
• Assist in maintaining proposal resources including a database of supporting material such as boilerplate content, executive summaries, project descriptions and resumes.
• Produce proposals in Adobe Creative Suite which includes InDesign and other applications.
• Minimum 5 years of proposal management experience (experience in architecture and / or interior design is advantageous).
• Strong written communication and design fundamentals. This will include a high level of proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite as well as Microsoft Office including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
• Being a natural self-starter with the ability to prioritize, self-schedule, meet tight deadlines and work with colleagues from various departments, market sectors, and locations.
• A Degree or Diploma in Marketing, Communications, or Design is an asset but not a requirement.
• Prior experience in the architectural and / or interior design, engineering, or construction (AEC) field preferred, professional services experience
