Job Title: Program Manager/Grantwriter
New Jersey Council of Teaching Hospitals
Trenton, New Jersey
New physicians. New medicine. New ways. For New Jersey. www.njcth.org
Different times call for different ideas. For more than two decades, the New Jersey Council of Teaching Hospitals (NJCTH) has been the vanguard for maintaining a strong system of academic medicine in the state. Together with our members, we’ve increased funding for medical education. We’ve protected precious resident slots from disappearing. We’ve set new standards for medication safety for children, and we’ve escalated awareness and action to address the threat of physician shortage.
Serving under the direction of the CEO, the Program Manager/Grantwriter will provide leadership, coordination and on-the-ground execution of programs that support the development and implementation of various physician workforce and medical education innovation programs; including member support services, committee facilitation, workshop/conference development, information and analysis, and monitoring sector developments for opportunities and ideas. This is a unique opportunity to help create the programs that will be attractive to funders and manage grantseeking, application and implementation from beginning to end.
Today, we are looking for a committed, competent and caring professional who can play a pivotal role in creating a vibrant future for health care in our state.
We are seeking a Program Manager/Grantwriter to join us and help us continue our organizational vision and advancement. As a key member of our Executive Team, the Program Manager/Grantwriter will work closely with the Chief Executive Officer and our members and staff to help us develop new programs and secure private funding from foundations and other sources to support our services. The successful candidate will have experience with grantwriting and foundations, strong initiative and a demonstrated ability to help us improve our existing relationships and to identify new funders to support our programming.
