Description
Hana Engineers and Consultants, LLC is seeking an experienced Proposal Coordinator to join our growing team and support our federal, state, and local government proposal program. This is a hands-on position for a proposal professional who enjoys collaboration, strong organization, and producing high-quality, compliant, and competitive submissions.
At Hana, the Proposal Coordinator partners with technical leadership and business development to coordinate proposal development from pursuit decision through final submission. This role is responsible for managing schedules, gathering inputs, supporting compliance, and helping ensure every proposal reflects Hana’s technical excellence, professionalism, and brand.
The ideal candidate is confident managing multiple proposals simultaneously, comfortable working with senior technical staff, and motivated by delivering strong proposals in a respectful, collaborative, and accountable environment.
Duty Location(s):
- Remote, with preference for candidates able to report to our Charleston, SC or Richmond, VA offices on a hybrid basis
- Fully remote candidates will be considered if they have strong prior remote experience and are willing to travel to an office periodically (typically quarterly) for in-person collaboration
About the Role & What Success Looks Like
This role is designed for a proposal professional who can coordinate multiple proposal efforts, keep teams organized, and help drive proposals to timely, compliant submission. The Proposal Coordinator works closely with Hana’s technical teams and business development leads to translate pursuit strategies into clear, compelling, and well organized proposal responses.
As Hana’s proposal team grows, this position offers opportunities to expand responsibilities across proposal operations, process improvement, and content library management, with a path to increased ownership based on performance and business needs.
The ideal candidate brings a calm, professional, and collaborative leadership style to the proposal team and is comfortable writing and editing proposal narratives. Currently, this role is non-supervisory with no direct report but works most closely with Hana's Proposal Specialist, often coordinating with them on their work assignments, reviewing their deliverables, and coaching them for quality and timeliness.
This position is intentionally focused on proposal execution and coordination. Success is measured by on-time submissions, compliance with solicitation requirements, quality and consistency of proposal deliverables, and strong internal collaboration with technical contributors.
