Job Description

Are you a story-teller? Do you have a thorough understanding of the Hawaii and Pacific Rim A/E/C marketplace? Are you able to leverage your network to build and join winning teams? Then we want to hear from you! Coffman Engineers is looking for the right individual to join our Honolulu office in the role of Marketing Manager. This is an exciting opportunity for someone with a passion for building relationships and writing proposals to join our team.

Marketing Manager duties:

• Work hand-in-hand with marketing gurus, engineers, various departments, and subconsultants to gather intel, assess prospective clients’ needs, and evaluate the competitive environment.
• Leverage your client network to serve as “matchmaker” by getting Coffman in the door with the right types of clients and positioning us on the best teams to pursue projects that are the right fit.
• Develop and implement proactive, strategic plans to target specific clients, market sectors, and geographic regions throughout Hawaii and the Asia-Pacific.
• Write a plain-English proposal with technically complex concepts that non-technical readers can understand. Each proposal is custom-written – it could be a single page or 30 pages. It could be in response to a government request for proposal or an architect’s request for qualifications. Every situation is different.
• Assist with internal and external messaging through press releases and award preparation.
• Support a variety of local and corporate marketing and BD initiatives.
• Assume the title of master juggler. You will be the detail-focused, schedule-driven, multiple-hat-wearing, punctuation-enforcing, relationship-building marketing manager.
