Freelance Proposal & Grant Writers for Ongoing Project Support

Only freelancers located in the U.S. may apply.U.S. located freelancers only

Summary

I’m building a trusted roster of experienced freelance proposal and grant writers to support my growing marketing and business consulting practice. I work with businesses and organizations that may need help responding to RFPs, developing proposals, pursuing grant opportunities, or managing the proposal/grant process from start to finish. I’m looking for experienced professionals I can bring in when the right need comes up, so we already know each other and are ready to work together. This is not necessarily an immediate project or a full-time position. My goal is to build relationships with talented freelancers for future project-based and ongoing work. Depending on your background, your experience may include: * RFP/RFQ responses and corporate proposals * Government or public-sector proposals * Grant research and opportunity identification * Grant writing and applications * Nonprofit, foundation, corporate or government grants * Proposal strategy, development and coordination * Executive summaries, narratives and supporting content * Editing, proofreading and compliance reviews * Managing deadlines, requirements and submission processes * Working with subject-matter experts to gather information and develop strong responses You do **not** need to have experience in all of these areas. Specialists are welcome. Most importantly, I’m looking for people who can independently execute the work. I can manage the client relationship, strategy and overall project, but I need experienced writers who can step in, understand what is needed and deliver high-quality work. I'm Especially Interested in Freelancers Who: * Have a strong track record in proposal and/or grant writing * Can share examples of successful work or relevant outcomes * Are organized and highly attentive to detail * Understand how to work against firm deadlines and submission requirements * Communicate well and are dependable * Can work collaboratively when multiple stakeholders are involved * Are comfortable working behind the scenes alongside a consultant or client team * Are interested in developing longer-term working relationships Experience working with agencies, consultants or as a behind-the-scenes/white-label partner is a plus. Before bringing someone into a client project, I’d like to have a short introductory conversation. When Applying, Please Share 1. Your primary area(s) of proposal or grant expertise 2. The types of organizations, industries or funding sources you have worked with 3. A few relevant examples and, where possible, outcomes or win/funding results 4. Your typical hourly and/or project rates 5. Your general availability 6. Any experience working with consultants, agencies or other client-facing partners If it looks like there could be a good fit, I’ll reach out to schedule a short conversation.
