Job Responsibility

  • Assemble all narrative and supporting content into a unified application package that is accurate, complete, and aligned across sections.
  • Circulate draft versions to appropriate reviewers, incorporate feedback, and refine the final narrative for clarity and impact.
  • Support entry of final responses into the required submission platform before the official deadline and verify completeness prior to submission.

Requirements

  • Demonstrated experience preparing and administering grant applications, preferably for collaborative or public-sector funding opportunities.
  • Working knowledge of HUD-related grant processes and the documentation standards associated with formal submissions.
  • Strong grant writing skills with the ability to transform complex information into clear, compelling narrative content.
  • Proficiency in drafting, editing, and organizing detailed documents while maintaining consistency across multiple sections.
  • Ability to manage timelines, coordinate deliverables, and balance input from several stakeholders in a deadline-driven environment.
  • Experience handling data entry and compiling information with a high degree of accuracy and attention to detail.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively through a designated point of contact for information gathering.
