  • Track, analyze, and report trends on subgrantee spending and matching contributions, and provide financial analysis and data for site visits, and/or other Center initiatives.

Qualifications include:

  • Five years of progressive experience in creating, managing, and/or evaluating program budgets in a nonprofit, grantmaking organization, or government agency.
  • Experience drafting multi-year budgets; analyzing and monitoring programs, budgets, and expenditures; identifying program and budget challenges and recommending solutions; and grant compliance.
  • Experience with federal grants and knowledge of the Code of Federal Regulations is preferred.
  • Must have strong organizational and problem-solving skills, be detail-oriented, and be able to develop systems including policies and forms for tracking information.
  • Capable of maintaining confidentiality while exercising sound judgement and discretion.
  • Interest in aging, trauma and a commitment to helping Holocaust survivors, older adults with a history of trauma, and family caregivers.

The applications for this role will be reviewed on an ongoing basis.
