    TYPE: Consultant/Contract

    McColm & Company (McCO) is a mission-driven and customer-focused consulting firm that equips change makers with the knowledge, skills, and insights they need to succeed in an increasingly complex world. McCO specializes in supporting U.S. federal customers with internationally and thematically focused portfolios by designing and delivering bespoke professional training programs, effective capacity building programs, and by providing highly specialized advisory and analysis expertise to decision makers.

Successful candidates will bring relevant and extensive U.S. Government proposal writing experience.


    DESCRIPTION & REQUIREMENTS

    Technical Proposal Writers will be contracted on a consultancy basis to support McCO to design and develop technical approaches related to professional training and capacity building, advisory and technical consulting, and research and analysis for specific opportunities (primarily funded by DOS, DOD, and DoI) in the areas of security, peacebuilding, and diplomacy; economic growth and trade; conservation, climate, and energy. Technical Writers will support the Business Development Unit by providing technical writing, quality assurance, and editing on assigned proposals. Candidates would enter into a long-term framework agreement with McCO, reporting to the Director of Business Development. Work authorization in the US is required.

    Successful candidates must be active self-starters with strong writing, editing, communication, interpersonal, strategic thinking, and management skills.

    • Contribute to the workplan development in collaboration with bid managers.
    • Write (either independently or as part of a team) clear, compelling and complete technical approaches that are compliant with bid requirements including evaluation criteria.
    • Work with a variety of specialists across the organization to incorporate their input into the technical proposal ensuring they come across as a 'one voice' technical solution.
    • Attend (or lead, when appropriate) color team reviews.Identify more appropriate content formats (e.g. infographics, diagrams) that help strengthening the bid readability.
    • Write/support other proposal sections (Management Approach, Past Performance) as agreed according to specific contract and proposal requirements.

    • Subject matter expertise in one of McCO's 3 service areas: professional training and capacity building, advisory and technical consulting, and research and analysis.
    • At least 5 years' experience as a lead technical writer on winning bids for U.S. government clients, especially DOD, DOS and DOI.
    • Demonstrated capability to successfully design innovative, practical, and viable technical solutions for federal proposals.
    • Excellent ability to work flexibly as part of a team in a fast-paced environment with tight and fluctuating deadlines.
