Proposal Coordinator

You are a creative and adaptable writer, no stranger to technical jargon, with excellent attention to detail and the perfection of a forensic detective. You are resourceful and have a knack of finding solutions by using all tools at your disposal. You believe in efficiency and work best under deadlines. You use checklists, sticky notes, and calendars on a daily basis and get a tiny thrill out of dotting your i’s and crossing your t’s.

You are a content curator; you read and sort through information with ease. You have the skills to translate the systematic syntax of science into words anyone can understand. You enjoy helping others and are comfortable playing various roles as needed to get the job done. You are a hands-on worker, able to work collaboratively or on your own. You are curious, attentive, and eager to learn from colleagues at every level.
