Support the coordination of field programs, including logistics (e.g., accommodations, travel) and resources (e.g., field personnel, assistants, equipment). Support preparation of proposals, including development of scopes and cost estimates, and participate in business development with existing clients and identified leads. Act as a QP (in your relevant field) in support of field teams, assisting with decision making processes, triaging of requests, and information sharing across ERM and client teams.
