Description
At the American Cancer Society, we're leading the fight for a world without cancer. Our employees and 1.5 million volunteers are raising the bar every single day.

As a member of the GHQ Philanthropy team, the Senior Grant Writing Manager (Corporate) is an experienced senior professional who serves as a lead content writer for high-value (six figures and greater) regional and national Corporate solicitations.

In partnership with Corporate fundraisers, Sr. Grant Manager, Corporate supports a high-value portfolio of corporate and corporate foundation solicitations and carries a personal revenue support goal of $3-5 million annually. This role provides expert-level content development for the agency on all ACS pillars and programs, including cancer research, by translating internal programs of work or program concepts into comprehensive and compelling grant proposals. Attention to detail is critical.
The Senior Grant Manager maintains a robust collection of collateral materials and content, and continually builds out and refreshes donor-facing materials to support overall development efforts.
