- Document how our grantmaking process works today
- Spot opportunities to make things clearer, more efficient, and more consistent
- Help prepare timelines, documentation, and systems for our FY2027 grant cycles
What We’re Looking For
- Experience with Foundant GLM or similar grantmaking software
- Someone who can translate messy processes into clear, usable systems
- Strong attention to detail and organization
- Comfort working independently in a flexible, part-time role
- Clear communicator who collaborates well
