Job Description: |
The College of the Arts (COTA) invites you to join our grants team in the role of the new Grants Manager position, working alongside two grants accountants and reporting to the Associate Dean of Research and Strategic Initiatives. The College’s external funding has grown substantially in the last 5 years. The COTA grants team is committed to supporting and continuing that growth through fostering curiosity and advancing the college's capability to pursue a diverse array of funding opportunities and ambitious collaborations. This new position will be a crucial component in how we accomplish that, by leading the comprehensive development and submission of fundable proposals, from the initial ideation stages to modification and management of projects throughout the award period, serving as a pivotal resource for principal investigators (PIs), project teams, sponsors, and partners, and ensuring the seamless execution of grant-funded projects. You will play an integral role in guiding PIs through the process of identifying funding, refining project concepts, and constructing compelling proposals. You will also actively work to increase visibility of UF processes for arts fund-seeking faculty, staff, and students, collaborating with the College’s Strategic Communications office to promote and connect current COTA research to national and international conversations. In this role, your focus will not be on UFIRST, compliance, post-award, or business systems-building. Instead, you will concentrate on enhancing COTA’s grants profile for both individual and team-based projects, identifying, facilitating, and developing partnerships on campus, regionally and nationally and working with the Associate Dean of Research to create and implement a strategic plan that will grow and enhance COTA’s grants initiatives. The University of Florida College of the Arts intends to be a transformative community, responding to and generating foundational shifts in the arts and beyond. As business and academic professionals, artists, scholars, advisors, and teachers, we, the staff of the College, embrace the complexity of our evolving human experience and seek to empower our colleagues, students, and faculty to respond to and shape that experience fearlessly through critical thinking, creativity, constructive questioning, and respectful dialogue. We seek a colleague who engages with openness and enthusiasm for the work and the mission of the college. We seek a colleague who possesses skills in designing and facilitating work that advances curiosity, inclusion, open intellectual discourse, and the well-being of all in an environment of complex diversity. We seek a colleague who identifies as a trusted steward of resources, balancing institutional requirements and the demand for innovative solutions. The University of Florida is an equal opportunity institution dedicated to building a broadly diverse and inclusive faculty, seeking faculty of all races, ethnicities, genders, backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives.
