Summary

Title: GovCon Sales / Capture Assistant Needed for AI Automation & IT Services Agency I run an AI automation and IT services agency, and I am looking for someone to help with government contracting sales, capture support, and subcontracting outreach. I already have AI systems that can research opportunities, identify contracts, and create initial opportunity summaries. I do not need someone whose only skill is searching SAM.gov or procurement portals. I need someone who can help turn researched opportunities into real conversations, teaming relationships, subcontracting opportunities, and proposal submissions. Our services include: * AI automation * Workflow automation using n8n, Make, Zapier * AI voice agents and chatbots * CRM automation * IT support and systems administration * Cybersecurity support * Data/document processing automation * AI video and content automation workflows Responsibilities: * Review AI-researched government contract opportunities * Help decide which opportunities are worth pursuing * Build and manage a pipeline of prime contractors and teaming partners * Conduct outreach to prime contractors, public-sector vendors, and small business liaison contacts * Follow up with prospects and help book intro calls * Help position our agency as a subcontractor for AI automation and IT services * Improve or help create our capability statement * Support proposal preparation when an opportunity is worth pursuing * Track outreach, replies, deadlines, and next steps in a CRM or spreadsheet * Help create a repeatable GovCon sales process Ideal experience: * Government contracting sales, capture support, business development, or proposal coordination * Experience with U.S. and/or Canadian government contracting * Experience contacting prime contractors for teaming or subcontracting * Strong written communication skills * Ability to understand IT, AI, automation, software, or technical services * Comfortable working with AI-generated research and validating the best opportunities Important: This is not just a research role. I am looking for someone who can help with sales execution, outreach, follow-up, positioning, and proposal support. To apply, please answer: 1. Have you done GovCon sales, capture, subcontracting, or teaming outreach before? 2. Have you contacted prime contractors or small business liaison officers before? 3. What would your outreach strategy be for an AI automation / IT services agency? 4. Can you help improve a capability statement? 5. How would you decide whether a contract opportunity is worth pursuing? 6. What would you do in the first 14 days? 7. What is your hourly rate? This will start with a paid trial. If the work is strong, this can become ongoing.
