Associate

You bring RfP-writing experience, move fast, and want your work to create real-world change?

We’re looking for an Associate to take responsibility for defined workstreams on high-impact projects in sustainability, finance, and development. This is a remote, permanent position, potentially part-time (80–100%) for professionals with relevant Proposal-Writing experience who are ready to think independently, deliver reliably, and grow quickly. All that in a fast-growing start-up.

You’ll work under the leadership of a manager, but with a high level of autonomy and trust.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

As an Associate in the RfP-Writing Business Line, you’ll play a key role within project teams – not just executing tasks, but actively shaping high-quality outcomes. You’ll:
• Scout for Requests-for-Proposal publications on relevant websites and select the most interesting tenders fitting Broadpeak’s expertise;
• Write the technical and financial proposals with high attention to detail;
• Engage with senior experts and/or joint-venture partner firms from our inhouse consultant database to build strong teams and/or consortia;
• Own specific workstreams and deliverables within larger projects in various sectors across LatAm, Africa and Asia;
• Conduct research, synthesize findings, and produce outputs that are sharp and actionable;
• Translate complex information into clear memos, slides, or decision-ready content;
• Maintain structure and momentum in your areas of responsibility – always in close alignment with your manager;
• Contribute to internal and client-facing discussions with insight and clarity;
• Track timelines, flag challenges, and help keep the project on course;
• Work with a mindset of ownership – while respecting that the project lead remains with the manager.

WHAT YOU BRING

We’re looking for experienced professionals who combine speed with structure, and autonomy with accountability.
• At least 3 years of relevant RfP-writing experience (e.g. in consulting, finance, development, sustainability, or public sector work);
• You work well in complex, fast-paced settings and enjoy figuring things out independently;
• You think clearly, write precisely, and communicate with structure and intent;
• High attention to detail and commitment to quality – your outputs are accurate and client-ready;
• You’re proactive, organized, and able to manage multiple workstreams simultaneously;
• You’re comfortable delivering under pressure, and open to feedback and iteration;
• Full professional proficiency in English (C1 or above) is a must;
• Other languages (e.g. French, Spanish, German) are a plus;
• You’re motivated by purpose-driven work and want to grow through real responsibility.

WHAT YOU GET

• Responsibility for meaningful content in projects with international scope;
• High learning curve through close collaboration with experienced managers;
• Flexibility and trust in a remote-first, outcome-focused setup;
• A role that develops your professional edge – in thinking, structuring, and delivering;
• A team culture based on curiosity, clarity, and low ego;
• Work that matters – beyond business as usual.
