The Opportunity :

Essnova Solutions, Inc., an Inc. 500 federal contractor and SBA 8(a) / HUBZone-certified small business, is seeking a highly competent Capture Manager with the strategic acumen and execution horsepower to drive high-value wins across our federal portfolio. With access to powerful contract vehicles including GSA OASIS+, Seaport NxG, FAA eFAST, GSA MAS, and 8(a) STARS III and deep capabilities in IT, Cybersecurity, Healthcare, Geospatial, and Environmental services, we are uniquely positioned for explosive growth. Essnova possesses necessary clearances and ISO, and CMMI Level 3 certification and exceptional past performance.

The Role :

We are looking for someone who has personally led and won multiple large federal contracts- someone who brings strategic thinking, unmatched execution, and a sense of urgency to every pursuit.

You will interface directly with government customers during market research, RFI, draft RFP, and Q&A phases. You will bring clarity to ambiguity and move fast to position Essnova ahead of each procurement cycle. You will hand off fully captured opportunities to the proposal team, ensuring compliance matrices, technical solutions, and teaming documentation are complete and airtight.
