Fehr & Peers is looking for a Proposal & Marketing Coordinator to join our Bay Area marketing team. We collaborate with a large team of planning and engineering professionals passionate about improving communities and contributing to driving innovation in the transportation consulting industry. Our work is deadline-driven and detail-oriented, but it’s also always a team effort: we solve problems together, share what we learn, and help each other get strong proposals out the door.

You’ll work closely with project managers, principals, marketing colleagues, and teaming partners to organize pursuit schedules and requirements, develop and edit content, and produce polished, compelling materials. We’re looking for someone who communicates clearly, follows through, manages competing deadlines, and cares about both accuracy and presentation.
You'll also have the opportunity to collaborate with and learn from fellow marketing professionals within our company and take on greater responsibility as your experience grows. If you have an entrepreneurial mindset, a commitment to quality, and a genuine enthusiasm for creating compelling content this role will be a great fit.
