Help Build Australia's Largest Funding Intelligence Database

About Grant'd
Grant'd is Australia's funding intelligence platform, helping businesses, charities, community organisations and researchers discover, manage and secure funding. We're building one of Australia's largest funding databases and are looking for an exceptional Data Operations Coordinator to join our Research & Data team.

Working alongside our Research & Data Manager, you'll help expand our funding coverage from approximately 8,000 funding opportunities to more than 30,000, while ensuring every record meets the highest standards of quality and accuracy.

Airtable
Google Sheets / Excel
Data validation and quality assurance
CRM or database systems
Categorisation or taxonomy management
An understanding of the Australian funding landscape would be an advantage, but is not essential.

Success in This Role
Success isn't measured by how many grants you process.
It's measured by how effectively you help us scale while maintaining quality.
By helping improve our AI-assisted workflows and ensuring every funding opportunity published on Grant'd is accurate, relevant and reliable, you'll play a key role in building Australia's most trusted funding intelligence platform.

Why Join Grant'd?
You'll be joining a small, ambitious Australian technology company building the future of funding intelligence.
Your work will directly improve the quality of information used by thousands of organisations across Australia and help shape one of the country's largest funding databases.
