• Develop a deep understanding of a city’s needs, the political environment, and the deal structure that will make execution possible, in conjunction with other members of the team
• Perform all tasks associated with managing a new partnership deal from initiation to completion (e.g. coordinating all aspects of the written RFP response, subsequent presentations, contract negotiations and transition to implementation teams)
