Join our dynamic team as a Grants Manager, supporting the Executive Director of Research in managing grant programs and partnerships.

  • Develop and edit complex content for proposals including peer-reviewed publications, research grants, and other program activities.

Take the lead on working with investigators or staff of each research team and others as appropriate to ensure funds are expended in an appropriate and timely manner to eliminate loss of funding.
  • Promote opportunities for external support by working collaboratively with the Research Development Coordinator to identify funding opportunities (and submission deadlines) through routine surveillance of sources such as SPIN, NIH Guides, NIH Request for Applications and Program Announcements, etc., and match specific funding opportunities with PIs based on knowledge of faculty and staff research/scholarly expertise/interests as well as knowledge of sponsors.
