The Commonwealth Institute for Fiscal Analysis (TCI) provides independent research and analysis of state fiscal and economic policy issues in Virginia, with a focus on how these issues affect people with low and moderate incomes in the Commonwealth. TCI's mission is to use policy research and analysis to advance the well-being of Virginia communities and improve the economic security and social opportunities of all Virginians.
TCI is seeking an individual with an interest in fundraising and development for the position of Grants Manager to manage a large (over $2 million annually) and growing grants portfolio for the organization. The grants portfolio is made up largely of foundation and non-profit organizational grants and awards.
TCI respects, values, and celebrates the attributes, characteristics, and perspectives that make each person unique. Bringing diverse individuals together allows TCI and allies to collectively and more effectively address the issues that face Virginia communities. TCI further recognizes that we live and work in a society that is structured by racism and white privilege, both of which adversely impact communities of color. It is one of TCI's core values that its organizational culture, staff, partners, strategies, and investments advance racial justice within and beyond the organization.
CORE RESPONSIBILITIES:
Manage TCI's grant-related activities:
Coordinate and contribute to the writing and completion of grant proposals and reports.

Maintain clear systems for tracking donors, foundations, organizations and financial information.
Advance our stewardship of foundations and donors.
Administer grant funds, including a system for grant deliverable tracking, cost allocation, and reporting.
Promptly respond to inquiries from funders, partners, and other interested parties.
Assist in maintaining a budget-tracking database and other in-house research tools.
ADDITIONAL EXPECTATIONS:
The successful candidate should also:
Possess a problem-solving approach to organizational challenges and help maintain an environment that supports such an approach.
Serve as an open and available resource to colleagues across the organization.
Align with TCI's culture of proactive management.
Understand or quickly learn how state policy can be used to advance both racial and economic justice in Virginia.
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:
An interest in fundraising or development (experience with grants management is a plus)

Strong command over written and verbal communication

Ability to multitask and work well under pressure

Candidates should also be comfortable working in an open office environment that fosters critical collaboration among colleagues. TCI embraces an "all hands on deck" work environment where everyone is vital to its success and there is a sense of both individual ownership and shared purpose. TCI's focus is on outcomes, so its work style allows for flexibility and a solid work-life balance. With the current COVID-19 health pandemic, this role will begin as a fully remote position. Once the TCI office reopens, this position will move to our office in Richmond, VA.
