    • Highly organized with strong research and budget development skills
    • Superior writing, editing, and communication skills
    • Skills in internet prospecting and research
    • Experience working in a deadline driven environment
    • Excellent research, analysis, and reporting skills
    • Demonstrated experience in identifying, applying for, and receiving grants from public and private sources is a plus
    • Integrity and a sense of humor
    • Characteristics of a successful Volkert team member:
    • Be a brand ambassador for the company who engages in diversity and inclusion
    • Be self-motivated to meet individual goals and maintain accountability in a team environment
    • Exercise initiative and independent judgement in the solution of work problems
    • Be able to communicate effectively- verbal and written
    • Be able to multi-task in a team environment
