At EEI, we believe in doing things the right way, with excellence, integrity, and genuine care for our people. As an employee-owned company, our People First culture is rooted in trust, accountability, and shared success.

As a Marketing Coordinator, your primary responsibility will be supporting EEI's proposal and pursuit process—from reviewing RFPs and RFQs and developing response requirements through writing, editing, InDesign production, quality control, and final submission. You will also help maintain the project, resume, and marketing content needed to efficiently produce high-quality proposals and qualifications packages.

You will work closely with technical leaders, project teams, Marketing, and Business Development to translate complex engineering and building performance experience into clear, client-focused materials.

This role is ideal for a highly organized marketing professional who enjoys balancing writing, design, research, and deadline-driven coordination. You will regularly shift priorities, manage multiple concurrent assignments, and maintain strong quality standards in a fast-paced proposal environment.

Proposal Strategy and Coordination

• Review and analyze RFIs, RFPs, RFQs, QBSs, bids, and other solicitations; identify evaluation criteria, required response elements, forms, page limits, submission requirements, and compliance risks; and translate requirements into a clear proposal response plan.
• Develop proposal schedules, outlines, compliance matrices, and work plans; communicate milestones, ownership, review expectations, and deadlines to contributors.
• Coordinate proposal meetings, milestones, calendar invitations, follow-up communications, and collaboration with technical leaders, project teams, teaming partners, and subcontractors to gather and refine required content
• Complete final quality-control reviews to ensure proposals are complete, consistent, well-written, properly formatted, on brand, and compliant with solicitation requirements.

Writing, Editing, and Content Development

• Receive day-to-day proposal assignments, technical guidance, and quality-control direction from a Senior Marketing Manager or other designated senior leadership team members responsible for leading pursuits, particularly for complex or strategic pursuits.
• Write and edit clear, persuasive, client-focused content describing EEI services, project experience, staff qualifications, and differentiators.
• Translate technical subject matter related to engineering design, commissioning, building performance, energy, project management, program management, and construction management into accessible marketing language.
• Conduct research to support pursuit strategy, client and market understanding, and content development.

Design and Production

• Design and produce graphics and layouts for proposals, qualifications packages, presentations, collateral, advertisements, and digital communications.
• Apply EEI brand standards across print and electronic materials, coordinate employee and project photography, maintain organized visual assets, and prepare final files for electronic submission, printing, or distribution.

Additional Marketing and Business Support Projects

• Monitor assigned publications and procurement sources for relevant opportunities, prospective clients, and industry developments.
• Assist with prospect research and maintenance of client, media, and market contact information.
• Support website, social media, events, and other marketing initiatives as workload and priorities permit.
• Collaborate with employees marketing the firm’s services and, when appropriate, communicate directly with clients, prospects, architects, teaming partners, and other engineering firms.
