Job Description

Are you someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment and enjoys bringing structure to complex projects? Do you love collaborating with others, managing multiple priorities, and using your creativity to make things happen? If so, you could be a great fit for our Proposal Coordinator role. We're looking for someone to join our Marketing team--based in Kitchener, Burlington, London, or Toronto--who thrives on deadlines, values collaboration, and is excited to help us win work that shapes the future of our communities.

What You'll Do

In this role, you'll coordinate and support the development of proposals from the moment an opportunity is identified through to final submission. You don't need to be a proposal expert yet, and you won't be responsible for writing technical content or pricing - our engineers and subject matter experts handle that. Your focus will be on organizing the process, shaping the messaging, and ensuring everything comes together smoothly.
