At DMU you will make a meaningful contribution to the dynamic future of Medicine and Health Sciences. DMU is seeking a Grants Specialist and Partnership Manager. The position supports the Executive Director of Research in managing internal grant programs and partnerships. The incumbent manages the lifecycle of sponsored program administration, including identification of funding sources, grant, and contract proposal assistance, grant writing assistance, development and review, proposal submission, grant and contract negotiation, sub-award issuance, and post-award administration (both financial and non-financial) related to funding provided in the form of gifts, grants, cooperative agreements, and contracts from external funding sources (e.g., federal agencies, state agencies, private companies, or foundations) that provide support for research, teaching, and learning, and service mission of the University.
What you'll do:
Write requested portions of grant proposals, contracts, subcontracts, and reports. These duties may include administrative and resource-sharing of core components, budget justifications, description of resources, and environment (in consultation with others in and outside the Office of Research).
Provide support to ensure applications are accurate and complete (including collecting and maintaining information such as bio-sketches, other support, etc.). Review and edit the final draft of applications, contracts, etc., to ensure completeness and compliance with sponsor guidelines.
Keep appropriate administrative staff apprised of the status of submissions when proposals are funded to prepare for the post-award process, human resource needs, and financial aspects. Take the lead on working with investigators or staff of each research team and others as appropriate to ensure funds are appropriately expended and timely to eliminate funding loss.
Assist the Executive Director of Research in developing, reviewing, revising, updating, and implementing University policies (time and effort, financial conflict of interest, etc.), plans, processes, and procedures related to pre-and post-award administration of grants.
What we're looking for:
Bachelor's degree required, with advanced degree desirable.
Three to five years as a grants administrator and related professional experience is required.
