Business Development Manager

What You Will Do:

• Pipeline & Prospecting
• Identify, qualify, and prioritize new business opportunities across target industries and client segments in partnership with the Chief Growth Officer (CGO) and other senior leaders.
• Build and manage a healthy pipeline through outbound prospecting, referrals, and inbound lead qualification.
• Maintain and continuously improve the BD CRM (e.g., Folk), ensuring accurate tracking of opportunities, activity, and forecasts.
• Develop and nurture relationships with prospective clients and industry partners.
• Represent Precision at industry events and networking functions.
• Proposal Writing, Coordination & Management
• Own the end-to-end proposal process: RFP/RFI intake, requirement analysis, and timeline development.
• Write, edit, and manage client-ready proposals, capabilities statements, and pitch materials — partnering with the Marketing Manager on brand collateral and messaging, and with subject matter experts on content.
• Coordinate cross-functional input from account leads and senior leadership to keep proposals accurate, on-brand, and on deadline.
• Maintain a proposal library, templates, and boilerplate content for efficiency and consistency.
• Manage proposal workback schedules and milestones.
• Lead post-submission debriefs and win/loss analyses to refine approach over time.
• Pitch & Deal Support
• Help prepare and, where appropriate, co-lead pitch meetings and presentations.
• Support the Director and CGO in developing scopes of work and pricing.
• Coordinate BD-specific events and prospect-facing activations, working with the Marketing Manager on execution support where needed.
• Marketing Collaboration
• Surface BD intelligence to the Marketing Manager — recurring prospect questions/objections, competitive/loss intel, and sector-specific traction — to inform content topics and positioning.
• Lead competitive research initiatives to directly shape go-to-market strategy and positioning
• Flag closed deals and notable wins as case study and award-submission candidates for the Marketing Manager to produce.
• Own proposal-specific versions of collateral (case studies, service descriptions, one-pagers used in active pitches) and sync regularly with the Marketing Manager to keep them consistent with master brand versions.
• Own guest list/targeting strategy for prospect-facing events while the Marketing Manager owns production and brand experience.
• Reporting & Process
• Maintain accurate, current pipeline and proposal reporting for the Director and leadership.
• Support the Director's process-improvement initiatives (e.g., AI proposal tools, CRM optimization) by operationalizing new tools day-to-day.
