The Specialist will independently manage a diverse portfolio of grants and contracts, ranging from straightforward to highly intricate.

- Managing the submission process for grant applications to ensure accuracy and timeliness.
- Reviewing proposals for compliance with institutional policies and sponsor guidelines.
- Assisting PIs with the preparation and submission of proposals, ensuring all necessary documentation is completed.
- Preparing budgets based on PI information and sponsor requirements, ensuring all costs are accounted for.
- Ensuring compliance with IRB and ACUC protocols and training requirements.
- Assisting with post-award management, including budget distribution, account reconciliation, and invoice processing.
- Maintaining communication with PIs regarding the financial status of grants and contracts.
- Facilitating contract and grant closeouts as necessary.
A Bachelor's Degree is required, along with a minimum of four years of relevant experience in sponsored research or financial roles, preferably within an academic or medical environment.
Knowledge of accounting principles and federal guidelines for grants and contracts is essential.
Skills and AbilitiesThe ideal candidate will possess:
- Strong analytical and decision-making skills.
- The ability to manage multiple tasks and meet deadlines.
- Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written.
- Proficiency in using financial management systems.
This position is designed for individuals who thrive in a dynamic environment and are committed to supporting research initiatives through effective grant and contract management.
