Job description

Job Summary:

The Grant Specialist plays a key role in supporting both internal stakeholders and the Sponsored Programs Office by guiding the development of strong, competitive proposals. This role ensures every submission meets sponsor and Care New England (CNE) requirements, while also maintaining meticulous documentation of proposals and approvals prior to portal submission. Beyond proposal development, the Grant Specialist oversees the fiscal, administrative, and regulatory management of grants, contracts, and sponsored programs from award receipt all the way through closeout. Collaborating closely with both internal and external partners, this position delivers comprehensive pre- and post-award services to ensure the success of funded projects.

The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment—skilled at balancing competing priorities, taking initiative, and applying sound judgment with a keen eye for detail. Strong communication skills, both written and verbal, are essential. Additional responsibilities may be assigned in alignment with the evolving needs and strategic goals of the department and the broader CNE system.

Duties and Responsibilities:

Manage pre- and post-award activities, including proposal development, budget preparation, award management, and compliance monitoring

Apply critical thinking, problem solving, and independent judgment to support interdisciplinary teamwork

Maintain accurate records and ensure adherence to sponsor, CNE, and departmental policies and regulations

Communicate effectively, both orally and in writing, with diverse stakeholders in an inclusive and collaborative environment

Demonstrate proficiency with Microsoft Office and data entry; experience with research administration systems and federal portals (e.g., grants.gov) preferred

Interpret and apply funding announcements, award terms, contract clauses, cost principles, and reporting requirements

Coordinate and monitor sub-recipient agreements and prior approval requests

Provide guidance to departments on sponsored projects and serve as a resource on federal, industry, state, and non-profit requirements

Engage in professional development to support continuous growth

Demonstrate a working knowledge and solid understanding of the practices/procedures related to (not all-inclusive):

Uniform Guidance, 2 CFR 200, Federal Acquisition Regulations, 45 CFR 75

National Institutes of Health Grants Policy Statement

Other federal grant policies as needed (e.g., NSF PAPPG in rare circumstances)

CNE and department policies and procedures

Requirements:

Bachelor's degree or a minimum of 10-years of relevant work experience is required.
