## About the role

Most competitive K-12 deals are decided before anyone reads the proposal - by whether the district can fund the purchase, and whether we're already on a contract vehicle they can buy from. We're looking for a Senior Bid & Capture Manager to own both halves of that equation: the bid work that wins the pursuit, and the capture work that shapes the odds before it starts. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- 7-10 years across proposal writing, bid management, public sector capture, contract vehicle or vendor list management, or SLED contract management, with wins in a competitive market you can walk us through in detail
- Fluent with AI tooling and opinionated about where it helps a writing-and-compliance function and where it introduces risk
- Familiar with at least one major cooperative or state contract vehicle from any side of the table - supplier, cooperative staff, or public agency buyer
- Skilled at translating funding and procurement complexity into something a salesperson can act on immediately, and energized rather than drained by being the person the field comes to
- Comfortable owning a broad function alone: prioritizing across competing deadlines, declining low-probability bids, and chasing subject matter experts who have competing priorities
- Able to build process and systems
