Project Management

Pursuit/Project Manager

This person is responsible for the day to day of identifying pursuits, capturing and managing opportunities, managing proposals and submittals, including coordinating deadlines. This person will also implement the day to day.

Our company’s goal is to work with corporations to assist them with procurement strategies and consulting services to win public agency, corporate or federal contracts. We do this through strategic consulting as well as through the design, development and maintenance of business programs - all with a community and inclusion lens.. Our business programs include mentor protege programs, youth engagement programs, stakeholder engagement, as well as supplier diversity programs.

Our goals are to:

  1. Became a global brand and thought leader within the “procurement and public agency consulting” community. A subset of this is ensuring community and inclusion is a part of the landscape.
  2. Ensure that 100% of our clients create a return on their investment by working with us.
  3. Create high quality programming and services that help our clients achieve their goals.
  4. Meet the needs of demanding clients.

We believe that we can make significant impact for small and diverse businesses through these programs and we want to ensure that every client, every communication is a “Ritz” moment and experience.

As a small and growing entrepreneurial company, no job is too big or too small. This role manages and executes the day to day of pursuits and may also support project work. The role requires someone who is able to be able to handle many balls at one time; effectively and quickly organize various data sources, information to create cohesive documents, reports, assembly for easy access. This is not a training role. Extensive experience in administrative coordination, being resourceful and high functioning is key to success. Someone with proposal coordination is a plus.

We need you to step into this role running from day one, and bring your own manage the manager expertise along with exceptional organization skills and attention to detail.

Our Values

  • Quality Results - This allows us to provide the best product, communication, service for our demanding clients. This includes being timely, proactive, and providing exceptional results.
  • Personal Responsibility and Accountability - It allows us to admit when we’re wrong and be proud of ourselves when we win. No shrinking allowed. We admit to problems quickly, resolve them quickly and learn from them.
  • Proactive - This allows us to think ahead and offer our clients solutions that can prevent missteps. We always think of what could go wrong administratively (application failures, technology failures, etc and how we can ensure that the executive and the clients receive seamless experiences.
  • Outcome Driven - This is not a push the paper environment. We look for people to provide and deliver exceptional outcomes. Fast paced, no day, usually no hour, is the same.
  • On “Ritz” Brand - Quality is key when dealing with our clients. Every communication, every visual communication must be on brand and provide stellar client experience. Think Ritz, not Walmart.
