A Deeper Look into a Proposal Management Career
I was curious today to see where the proposal management profession is in the 21st century, what better way to find out than looking at salaries across the board? Earlier I posted an overview about what this job entails, so let’s review and then get down to what’s really important.
The duties and responsibilities of proposal managers often include:
-Working with a finance team to optimize offer value to clients.
-Participating in key client meetings as a project and proposal facilitator.
-Work as part of the business development team to develop custom proposals and respond to client data requests.
-Compiling estimates and technical data from several departments within the company in order to facilitate the sales process.
You are a key player as far as finding, retaining, and developing relationships with clients. So how much is this generally worth?
-With salary, bonuses, profit sharing, and commission, the general total pay is from $56,900 to $90,495.
-Proposal managers with less than one year of experience usually make between $30,658 and $76,432, whereas those with over 20 years of experience make between $76,460 to $115,818.
-Proposal manager salaries generally increase corresponding to the size of the company and their general sales.
-As of individuals reporting to the site, pay differs based on city starting on top and lowering to in this order: Houston TX, Fairfax VA, Washington DC, Los Angeles CA, New York NY
