At GSF Media, we don't believe in one-size-fits-all. Since 1997, we've helped brands grow through clear strategy, creative execution, and content that converts. Every proposal we create is built from the ground up, tailored to the client and designed to communicate value with clarity.
We're looking for someone who understands how to connect what a client needs with what we offer and then present that in a way that's strategic and visually compelling. We're not looking for someone to fill in templates. This is much more creative and strategic. This role is central to how we communicate our value before a contract is ever signed.
The Role :
As our Proposal Strategist & Designer, you'll own the creation of custom proposals and pitch materials for prospective clients. You'll work closely with sales, marketing, and creative leadership to translate discovery notes into tailored strategies and then quickly design presentations that make the case visually and logically.
This role blends strategy, communication, and design. You'll need to understand the difference between LSA ads and organic social, and know when to recommend each. You'll also need to keep everything aligned with our brand standards while moving fast and staying sharp under pressure.
What You'll Do :
- Collaborate with sales and strategy teams to build custom, accurate, and compelling proposals
- Recommend the right services for each prospect — based on notes, briefs, or quick strategy huddles
- Design high-impact proposals using a blend of tools like Keynote, Qwilr, and Adobe Creative Suite
- Ensure proposals reflect GSF's visual identity and clearly communicate the "why" behind our approach
- Maintain flexible internal frameworks for proposals without relying on copy / paste methods
- Spot and fix misaligned messaging or inaccurate service recommendations before they go out
- Help improve our proposal workflow, visual standards, pricing, and service-matching process over time
