Grants Administrator

The Erie County Redevelopment Authority (ECRDA) is seeking a Grant Administrator to become part of a fast-paced, driven-to-excel grant administration team. Expectations are high, but the rewards are even higher. Deadlines dictate daily and monthly priorities, and the workplace atmosphere swings from highly intense productivity to lighter catch-up days. 

New grant applications and ongoing grant management are achieved through consistent communication and unwavering teamwork, which is why these two qualities will be a must for the ideal candidate. Basic knowledge of grant compliance at the state level will also be required, but because the new team member will be offered ample training and support throughout the grant writing and management learning process, extensive grant administrative experience will not be necessary. This is considered an entry-level position for anyone wishing to begin a new career and/or grow within the economic development realm. 

Additional details: 
•    This is a full-time position. Part-time applicants with grant administration experience and exceptional qualifications may be considered.
•    The training period (6-12 months, depending on experience) will be office-based
•    Occasional remote work, as appropriate, can be earned at the completion of the training period
