Proposal Writer & Government Contracting Specialist

Apply through Indeed or send your resume directly to: danielle.babbey@acumenagency.com

Acumen Agency Is Mass Hiring

Acumen Agency is a growing startup and international business services company currently undertaking mass hiring across Canada and internationally.

As we expand our government contracting and business services operations, we are looking to hire 250+ Proposal Writers and Government Contracting Specialists to help identify opportunities, prepare proposals, and respond to government procurement opportunities.

This is an opportunity to gain practical experience in government contracting, proposal development, business development, research, writing, and professional services while growing with an expanding international company.

About Acumen Agency

Acumen Agency is a full-spectrum business services and professional services firm serving small and medium-sized businesses, large enterprises, governments, charities, and NGOs.

Our services span areas including:

Business Consulting • Marketing • IT Services • Financial Services • Corporate Services • Professional Services

As we expand, government contracting will become an increasingly important part of our business development strategy.

The Opportunity

This position starts as a performance-based role with clear objectives and measurable results.

Your primary responsibility will be to help Acumen Agency identify and pursue government contracting opportunities and develop strong, professional responses to RFPs, RFQs, RFSQs, tenders, and other government procurement opportunities.

Compensation is tied directly to performance and results. Strong performers will have opportunities to increase their earnings and potentially transition into salary-based positions as soon as possible as the company grows.

We are looking for people who are motivated by results and want the opportunity to learn, earn, and grow with a startup.

What You'll Do

Responsibilities may include:

Research government procurement portals and identify relevant contracting opportunities.
Monitor RFPs, RFQs, RFSQs, tenders, and other procurement opportunities.
Review solicitation documents and understand requirements, specifications, evaluation criteria, and submission deadlines.
Determine whether opportunities are suitable for Acumen Agency to pursue.
Prepare professional and persuasive proposal responses.
Draft executive summaries, technical responses, capability statements, methodologies, and other proposal sections.
Coordinate with internal team members to collect information required for proposals.
Research government agencies, departments, programs, and contracting requirements.
Ensure proposals are complete, accurate, professional, and submitted according to requirements.
Track proposal deadlines and maintain an organized opportunity pipeline.
Assist with pricing, scopes of work, schedules, and other proposal documentation.
Research competitors and relevant market information.
Maintain proposal templates, documentation, and internal resources.
Follow up on submitted proposals and track outcomes.
Help improve Acumen Agency's proposal-development process as the company scales.
Identify additional business opportunities within government and institutional markets.

More Than Just Proposal Writing

We are looking for people who can think beyond simply writing documents.

Strong candidates may also have opportunities to participate in:

Government business development.
Client research and lead generation.
Contract opportunity identification.
Sales and business development.
Market research.
Client communications.
Strategic partnerships.
Account management.
Business consulting.

The ability to identify an opportunity, understand what the customer needs, and help the company win the contract is highly valuable.

Performance-Based Compensation

This is a performance-based position.

Acumen Agency is currently in a unique stage of growth. Rather than simply paying for hours worked, we want to reward people who produce results and create value for the company.

Performance may be evaluated based on factors such as:

Quality and completeness of proposals.
Number of qualified opportunities identified.
Proposals successfully submitted.
Proposal quality and competitiveness.
Contracts awarded.
Revenue generated.
Overall contribution to business development.

Compensation and performance bonuses are directly tied to results.

As the company grows and revenue becomes more predictable, our goal is to transition strong-performing team members into permanent salaried positions as soon as possible.

Performance Over Academic Credentials

Academic qualifications are appreciated, but they are not the only measure of success at Acumen Agency.

If you have strong writing ability, research skills, business knowledge, government contracting experience, attention to detail, and the ability to produce results, we encourage you to apply.

Relevant experience can be more important than having a specific degree.

We are particularly interested in people who can learn quickly, follow requirements carefully, write professionally, and deliver results.

Who We're Looking For

The ideal candidate is:

An excellent written communicator.
Highly organized and detail-oriented.
Comfortable researching complex information.
Able to understand and follow detailed requirements.
Comfortable working with deadlines.
Self-motivated and able to work independently.
Interested in government contracting and procurement.
Comfortable using online procurement portals and research tools.
Strong at professional business writing.
Analytical and capable of understanding customer requirements.
Goal-oriented and motivated by performance.
Entrepreneurial and willing to take initiative.
Comfortable working in a fast-growing startup environment.
Interested in growing into greater responsibility and leadership.

Experience in any of the following is an advantage:

Government contracting
Proposal writing
RFP/RFQ responses
Procurement
Grant writing
Business development
Consulting
Professional services
Technical writing
Research
Sales
Account management
Project management

Experience is an advantage, but motivated candidates who can demonstrate strong writing, research, organization, and communication skills are encouraged to apply.

Learn. Earn. Grow.

Joining Acumen Agency means becoming part of a growing company where there is significant room for advancement.

As we expand our government contracting operations, opportunities may develop in:

Proposal Management • Government Contracting • Business Development • Sales • Consulting • Operations • Account Management • Management • Leadership

We expect to hire 250+ proposal professionals as this division develops, creating substantial opportunities for high-performing individuals to take on greater responsibility.

If you perform well, your opportunities can grow with the company.
