About the role

Jacobs is seeking a Proposal Manager to lead the preparation and production of proposals for federal sector opportunities from various offices in the United States. You will coordinate multidisciplinary teams, develop win strategies, and ensure compliant, compelling submissions that meet client requirements and schedules. The role emphasizes leadership, strong writing, and the ability to manage multiple pursuits with a focus on qualification, messaging, and quality across the pursuit lifecycle.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
