This is a cross-functional, highly collaborative role that requires strong project management skills, the ability to synthesize complex technical information, and a heart for ministry impact. The Grant Acquisition Manager will support the Senior Director of Development and senior department leaders in stewarding foundation relationships and securing essential funding for mission-critical projects.
