Work with lawyers and Business Development to understand client objectives and develop tailored value propositions, win themes and supporting evidence.
Guide and contribute to drafting and editing executive summaries, service approaches, team profiles and experience statements, ensuring clear and persuasive responses.
Coordinate pitch presentations and briefing materials, supporting lawyers with key messages, presentation preparation and rehearsals.

Quality Assurance and Submission Management

Review proposals for accuracy, completeness, consistency and compliance with client instructions, evaluation criteria and submission requirements.
Coordinate review and approval of pricing, commitments and sensitive information with responsible lawyers, Finance, General Counsel and other stakeholders, as appropriate.

Proposal Content and Knowledge Management

Lead the development and maintenance of reusable proposal content, templates and pitch materials to support efficient, high-quality responses.
Partner with lawyers and the Business Development team to capture representative matters, client insights and practice-specific credentials for use in pitches and proposals.
Ensure proposal content reflects the firm’s voice, brand standards and market positioning while remaining tailored to each opportunity.
Develop compelling experience narratives and case studies that demonstrate relevant capabilities and client value, subject to appropriate approvals.

Proposal Systems and Reporting

Oversee proposal tracking and the use of content management and collaboration tools to maintain visibility into active pursuits, deadlines and team capacity.
Report on proposal activity, outcomes and trends to the Chief Growth Officer. Use client feedback, win/loss insights and process data to improve future submissions.

Oversee proposal-related use of the firm’s Expertise Database and identify improvements in representative work collection and tracking.
