You will develop and maintain strong relationships with asset owners, developers, EPC firms, general contractors, public agencies, and industry partners to generate and sustain a robust project pipeline. Responsibilities include leading client outreach, market analysis, and strategic planning efforts; preparing and delivering compelling proposals, presentations, and interviews; and collaborating with estimating, preconstruction, and technical teams to align pursuit strategies with client needs.

You will also represent the organization at industry events, conferences, and client meetings, strengthening brand presence and market credibility.
