Grants Management
6 open positions in this category
Grants management specialists in the 1109 series administer the business side of federal financial assistance: reviewing applications, negotiating awards, monitoring recipients for compliance, approving budget changes and closing out grants. The work follows the government-wide Uniform Guidance in 2 CFR 200 and each agency’s own regulations.
Recent listings have included grants management specialists at Department of Education headquarters, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the National Foundation on the Arts and the Humanities, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the National Science Foundation and the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health, from developmental positions with promotion potential to a senior nonsupervisory one.
Applying tip: announcements rate experience with the full grant lifecycle and with the regulations, so name the programs, award volumes and systems you worked in, and cite the Uniform Guidance and agency policies you applied. Some are posted twice, once for the public and once for current federal employees, so apply under the right one. Our FEMA guide describes hiring at one of the grant-making agencies in this hub.
