Proposal & Business Development Support

As part of a growing agency, you will contribute to the development of creative proposals and pitch documents for new clients and projects.

• Supporting the preparation and organisation of pitch documents and proposal materials.
• Maintaining and developing an internal library of proposal content, inspiration, and previous pitch materials.

Professional Profile – The Ideal Candidate

Role Details
