  • Proposal Development: Prepare accurate and compelling quotes, bids, and presentations in collaboration with design and estimating teams.

  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with internal teams—designers, project managers, logistics, and customer service—to ensure accurate fulfillment and successful project delivery.
