Self-perform a thorough Win/Loss Analysis on submitted bids to analyze competitor approaches and continuously calibrate future estimating accuracy.
Support and comply with all components of the company’s health and safety programs.
Willing to mentor when needed.
Regular and reliable attendance is an essential function of this position.
