Job Description

Freelancer.com is the world's largest freelancing and crowdsourcing marketplace in the world, with more than 90 million professionals across the globe. Our marketplace hosts a real life economy, where work is undertaken in every area you can think of. From design, writing, data entry and software development; through to cleaning, plumbing and dog walking - even NASA uses us!

The Enterprise team works with the largest organizations and governments in the world (80% of Fortune 500s), helping them move towards the future of work - a blended workforce of full-time employees and freelancers working side by side. We are growing at an accelerated pace and have aggressive growth targets for 2027 and beyond.

You will lead the Freelancer Enterprise Government Bid Team headquartered out of our Vancouver office. The team works with NASA and US Government agencies on delivering end-to-end program management for cutting edge NASA Task Orders.

In this role you will be responsible for maintaining and delivering on the pipeline of NASA Task Orders identified through a major NASA program. This role will see you lead the individual project management of each Task Order and also lead the overall NASA / Government program portfolio.

This is an exceptional opportunity to lead US Government originated engagements, including influencing all aspects of the program from proposals, commercials, P&L through to operations and delivery.

Requirements

  • Strong communication skills with excellent technical writing skills: you can translate business needs into technical requirements and explain technical concepts to a non-technical audience
  • Highly organized, analytical and able to work independently: you can juggle multiple engagements at the same time, you take ownership and you have a sense for prioritizing features, making estimates and creating timelines
  • Comfortable liaising and influencing multiple senior stakeholders
  • Proven work experience as a Project Manager or Program Manager
  • Attention to detail and a strong level of customer focus
  • High level of integrity and sense of urgency to “make things happen”
  • Negotiating favourable commercial contracts and terms
  • Comfortable writing bids and proposals, ideally for the Government sector
  • Ability to read, analyze, and dissect legal, compliance, and technical bid proposals and complex projects

Nice to Have:

  • US Citizenship (for US Government project clearance and on-site visits)

Benefits

This won't be a cog-in-the-machine job; you will be joining a global technology company that is a meritocracy, so if you are looking to make a difference and be rewarded for your efforts, this is the place for you.

We offer:

  • A meritocratic culture with the ability to take ownership and fast track your career.
  • Regular appraisals and personal development plans
  • Weekly Town Halls with the all important Q&A session with the CEO (you really can ask him anything)!
  • Relaxed dress code
  • Transparent communication and no bureaucracy
