Grants Program Coordinator
2 months ago
Do you have experience in project management? Do you enjoy creating efficiencies using digital tools? Are you interested in supporting the critical work of sustainability and climate action? We'd love to meet you The University of Minnesota's Institute on the Environment is seeking a Grants Program Coordinator (job code 8221GG) to support our mission of building a sustainable, equitable future – where people and planet prosper together.
This position coordinates and manages the day-to-day operations of IonE's granting portfolio, which includes large-scale Impact Goal grants and twice-yearly mini grants, among other calls and opportunities. Funds deployed through this portfolio come from a variety of sources, including the University's strategic plan (via a strategic investment called MNtersections); the MnDRIVE Environment program, which IonE manages on behalf of the UMN; philanthropy; IonE's own operating resources; and other funding sources.
In this role you will:
Ensure the effective and efficient administration of the internal (non-sponsored) grants portfolio, which exceeds $1M in total value and is distributed via multiple funding cycles per year;
Support day-to-day operations, through effective program coordination including regular communication with grantees, processing no cost extensions, and facilitating grants-related meetings and workshops; and
Strengthen our granting ecosystem and portfolio impact, by supporting grant stewardship activities and storytelling about news, milestones, outputs, and outcomes.
This position will be a member of IonE's administrative team, reporting to the IonE Director of Administration & Operations, April Deinken. The ideal candidate will be self-motivated, a creative problem solver, and looking to deepen and strengthen their project management capabilities. We don't expect candidates will have experience in all of the position duties and responsibilities; we do expect that the candidate will be resourceful, have a willingness to learn, and be comfortable collaborating in a complex, deadline-driven organization. This position works heavily in Google Sheets and Qualtrics, so experience in Google Apps Script (or other advanced spreadsheet functions) and survey administration will give candidates an edge, but is not required.
Principal Duties and Responsibilities
Grants portfolio management (70%)
This work relates to the overall operational management of the +$1M internal (e.g., non-sponsored) granting portfolio including all processes from Requests for Proposals to collecting Final Reports of Activities. Regular responsibilities include:
Manage the development and refinement of Requests for Proposals (RFPs), which are used to solicit project proposals from staff and faculty within the University system in collaboration with community partners
Coordinate, working closely with involved IonE staff, RFP processes, including but not limited to: (1) establishing RFP, review, and award timelines; (2) developing review rubrics; (3) populating and coordinating review panels; and (4) managing the award process

Other duties as assigned
Grants program support (30%)
This work includes the day-to-day support of the grants portfolio, including communication with grantees, processing no cost extensions, and meeting coordination, as well as coordinating storytelling opportunities and grant stewardship.
Serve as main point of contact and project manager for IonE's MNtersections, MnDRIVE Environment, Impact Goal, and mini grant programs, responding to general inquiries; providing input on infrastructure and processes; reviewing requests for no cost extensions and rebudgets; and requesting progress and final reports
Maintain accurate rosters and directories of project teams, including unit/org homes, communications contacts, period of performance, and other demographic and strategic information
Organize, document, and share work in Basecamp, Google suite collaborative products, and team file organization structure; strong organization of google folders to ensure all documents are organized using shared folders in ways that can be navigated independently and intuitively
Collaborate with the IonE communications team, incorporating requests for project news, milestones, and other story ideas into reporting processes, and facilitating access to information about outputs and outcomes
Coordinate meetings and activities related to coaching grant teams, workshops, and other gatherings that support grant awareness, applications, and award distribution, such as proposal development and annual reporting workshops
Initiate communications with grantees as needed – and monitor project progress (financial and project activities) from award to close out, and collection of relevant post-close out data
Other duties as assigned, such as participation in IonE-wide activities and professional development
Working Conditions:
This role will be performed in person on the St. Paul campus with the opportunity for remote/virtual work approximately 1-2 days per week. IonE offices and meeting spaces are accessible, and the building has accessible gendered restrooms on-site.
