The company:

Everyone writes, everyone pulls reports, and everyone sits in on client calls. No pitching for work we cannot actually handle. Founded in 2001, we now have 31 employees. Deadlines move when clients change their minds, so plans have some slack built in.

The posting will close once we have a strong shortlist.

Duration: 3 months. Start: Within 30 days.
