Job Description

Altis Technology is currently seeking a skilled and results-focused Writer to join their IT Proposals division as a Proposal Specialist.

Your main goal will be to showcase the experience and abilities of our qualified candidates in clear and effective responses to Requests for Proposals.

This will occasionally require powers of deduction, along with a bit of detective work, as you gain a clear understanding of each opportunity and work together with our recruiters to propose the winning candidate.

This role will rely on your resourcefulness, your writing ability, your time management skills and your attention to detail.

It will call on your superb interviewing skills to gather all required information from our candidates in order to effectively demonstrate their compliance to the bid requirements.

You will treat each proposal like a separate project, with due dates and a deadline. You need to be able to organize your time efficiently, as you manage multiple amendments on multiple bids, simultaneously.

It’s important that as a member of our team you bring your A-game every day with a growth mindset, operating ethically and consultatively, while contributing to our Company Culture and to the community at large.

We offer a competitive compensation and benefits package, flexibility which includes the ability to work remotely following the initial learning and development period (1 day / week onsite for first 3 months), career pathing opportunities, and continuous support and access to resources to help you succeed in your role.

If you are seeking a motivated, collaborative team, and love a bit of healthy competition, we welcome your application! Key Responsibilities :

  • Gaining an understanding of each opportunity by thoroughly reading the RFP and flagging any concerns with questions that the Account Manager can direct to the client for clarification
  • Working in collaboration with Recruiters and Account Managers to find compliant candidates
