Full Job Description

Position Summary:

The Director of Grant Development serves as the primary grant writer for the agency and is responsible for leading the development, writing, and submission of high-quality grant proposals that support the organization's strategic funding priorities. This position manages assigned grant opportunities from concept through submission, including opportunity assessment, proposal development, coordination of internal stakeholders, budget collaboration, narrative writing, editing, submission, and funder communication.

In addition to leading grant proposal development, the Director of Grant Development is responsible for managing assigned grant renewals and post-award grant activities, including compliance, reporting, funder stewardship, tracking deadlines, coordinating reimbursement or billing information as needed, and ensuring all grant requirements are met accurately and on time.

This position works closely with program leadership, development, finance, and executive leadership to gather programmatic and financial information, develop compelling and competitive proposals, align funding requests with organizational priorities, and ensure compliance with funder requirements throughout the grant lifecycle.

While executive leadership establishes the organization's overall grant strategy, funding priorities, and final pursuit decisions, the Director of Grant Development serves as the primary author and project manager for grant proposals and assumes primary responsibility for the successful development, submission, management, renewal, compliance, and stewardship of assigned grants and funding relationships.

Relationships and Contacts:

Within the organization: Initiates and maintains frequent contact and close relationships with program leadership, department directors, finance staff, and members of the Leadership Team.
