JOB OVERVIEW

Role Summary

This role owns the movement of client opportunities from initial conversation through to signed engagement. The focus is on structuring proposals, maintaining pipeline ---------- ntum, and ensuring no opportunities are lost due to delays or lack of follow-up.

Proactively follow up with prospects and clients
Identify stalled deals and take action to move them forward
Maintain a simple, effective CRM or tracking system

3. Client Coordination
Coordinate next steps with clients after initial conversations
Manage scheduling, materials, and communication flow
Ensure a high-quality, professional client experience

4. Founder Support (High-Leverage Only)
Prepare briefing notes for sales calls
Highlight risks, gaps, or opportunities in deals
Reduce reliance on the founder for day-to-day coordination

What Good Looks Like (90 Days)

All leads are tracked and visible at any time
Proposals go out within 48 hours of key conversations
No deals are “lost” due to lack of follow-up
Founder is no longer writing proposals from scratch

Ideal Profile

5–10+ years in consulting, agency, or professional services
Strong writing and structuring skills
Highly organized but also proactive and assertive
Comfortable working with senior executives
Able to operate with minimal direction
