The Department of Medicine Office of Research is the largest central departmental research administration team in the School of Medicine, managing a research portfolio worth approximately $250M and supporting around 225 research faculty. Within the Medicine Office of Research, we take a cradle-to-grave approach whereby Grants & Contracts Administrators (GCA) manage both pre- and post-award activities across a variety of fund sources for an assigned portfolio. We are looking to fill several positions over the next few months on both our grants administration and clinical research finance teams. While GCAs are assigned to a specific team and report directly to a Grants and Contracts Manager, belonging to a much larger more matrixed team environment means teamwork and positive working relationships are paramount to our collective success.
Pre-award activities include assisting departmental faculty in the development, preparation, and submission of grant proposals and clinical study financial and contract start-up. The GCA is responsible for ensuring all proposals meet agency and university guidelines and deadlines, and are entered and routed for institutional review in a timely manner. Post-award activities include detailed reconciliation of project financials, preparing complex financial reporting for investigators and business managers to assess whether a project is on target or if adjustments are needed, processing rebudgets, renegotiating industry funding, and project closeout.

- Reconcile monthly budget reports and inform PI of corrections/adjustments that have been made. Identify the need for cost transfers from budget reconciliation; submit cost transfers. Prepare and submit requests for re- budgeting/modifying the funded project budget.
- Reconcile and close all sub-recipient budgets and obtain all sponsor-required reports.
- Apply federal and university rules to management of effort allocation appropriately for individuals with salary support from federal awards.
- Ensure proper recording of revenue associated with all studies; apply revenue management standards; manage any overdrafts in line with unit procedures and institution guidance.
- Monitor compliance with agency and institutional/school regulations regarding reporting.
- Closeout all funded projects consistent with university process and timelines.
- Perform other duties as assigned to ensure efficient and effective research support in the Department of Medicine.
