Job Description

TSC is seeking a Business Development Lead (BDL) to support business expansion activities with a focus on business capture. The role is split between business capture, traditional business development, capture management and proposal writing. It is expected that the candidate will take ownership to develop and grow relationships with current and new customers as well as key points of contact. The successful candidate will take a lead role in expanding business opportunities and identify key areas to focus on strategic growth with customer shaping, white papers, proposals, and increased capture focus. The BDL will support various programs and pursuits that are in line with TSC's strategic focus on Precision Weapons, Radar and Fire Control, Airborne Sensors and ISR, EW and SIGINT, and Space Systems and Intelligence.
