This role is part of an operational support team within the organization that will ultimately be expected to improve the organization's internal satisfaction and efficiency, particularly in collaboration with the Development team.
Elemental is a highly dynamic and innovative organization that frequently pivots. This role requires an adaptable and open-minded individual who can facilitate and promote compliance among colleagues.
This position will report to the Controller. The position requires outstanding collaboration skills, proficiency in financial reporting and communication, adept workflow management, and the ability to gather program information and formulate comprehensive budgets. The ideal candidate is someone with relevant grant accounting and management experience who is excited to support our rapidly growing portfolio of restricted grants through the entire lifecycle of the grant, from proposal and budgeting to providing donor reporting and through to grant close-out.
The Elemental fundraising team has recently hit its peak performance with great success in securing substantial new grant funding. As a result, this large portfolio of donor-restricted grants requires careful management to ensure effective donor stewardship and continued growth through successful execution. We seek the right candidate to add strength to this team with experienced, creative leadership. The successful candidate will be able to work collaboratively to build policy, procedure, and process to manage the grant portfolio effectively.
Key Responsibilities Include:
