JOB OVERVIEW

Firefly Worldwide Inc. ( ---------- ) seeks a motivated, self-directed grant writer to support the advancement of our mission-driven work through diligent grant research, compelling grant application writing, and organized project management to support our team's work on a project basis. In this role, you will help uncover and pursue funding opportunities aligned with our leadership consulting practice's organizational mission. You will build upon our existing brand messaging and program descriptions to help identify and secure grant funding that makes our work possible.

This is a flexible engagement that can fit well into your already-existing schedule.

- Draft applications using our existing resources and brand messaging
- Submit and track applications through to completion
- Keep a clean, organized log of opportunities, deadlines, and statuses

You're a great fit for this role if you:

- Have solid grant research and writing experience and the ability to spot a strong opportunity
- Write clearly and authentically in ways that resonate
- Work independently with minimal check-ins and yet deliver top-notch results
- Can manage concurrent projects and deadlines effectively
- Exercise good judgment and handle sensitive information with care
