Grant Manager and Development Writer

We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes "Job Description Summary" and "About Reynolda" and "Essential Functions" etc. We need to map to headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use

for each section heading. Only include sections that have real specific content. No filler. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like application instructions, EEO, etc. Keep substantive info. We need to extract content: - Job Description Summary: "Researches, develops, submits, and monitors corporate, foundation, and government grant requests and strategies to meet institutional fundraising goals for Reynolda House and Reynolda Gardens. Collects and analyzes key data points to support grant requests, provides project management support for institutional initiatives, assists in the coordination of major giving proposals, and provides strong development writing for letters and publication articles." That's a summary; could go under About the role? Or Responsibilities? Probably About the role. - About Reynolda: description of the organization. Could be About the role? Actually "About Reynolda" is about the organization. Could be placed under About the role? Might be better as a separate section "About the organization" but not in allowed headings. Allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to fit content into those. We could put "About Reynolda" under About the role (maybe as description). Or we could treat "About the role" as summary of role and include both summary and about Reynolda. Responsibilities: Essential Functions list (many bullet-like sentences). We'll turn each sentence into

. Requirements: Minimum Qualifications: "Bachelor’s degree required plus three to five years of related experience preferred." Qualifications: Knowledge, Skills, Abilities list. Skills: maybe part of Knowledge, Skills, Abilities but we can separate? The allowed headings include Skills separate from Qualifications. We could put Knowledge, Skills, Abilities under Skills? But Qualifications also includes Minimum Qualifications. Let's decide: - About the role: include Job Description Summary and About Reynolda description. - Responsibilities: Essential Functions (list). - Requirements: Minimum Qualifications (Bachelor’s degree + 3-5 years experience). - Qualifications: Knowledge, Skills, Abilities (the bullet list). Could also include "Experience and fluency with..." etc. - Skills: maybe we could split but we have already covered skills in Qualifications. To avoid duplication, we could put Skills empty? But we must not emit heading with filler. So we should not include Skills if we already covered under Qualifications. However the instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could combine Knowledge, Skills, Abilities into Qualifications and not have separate Skills. - Benefits, Pay, Schedule: not provided, so omit. Thus we will have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications. Now we need to format. About the role: combine summary and About Reynolda into prose

maybe multiple paragraphs. Responsibilities:

• each essential function sentence. Requirements:

  Bachelor’s degree required plus three to five years of related experience preferred. Qualifications:

  • each bullet from Knowledge, Skills, Abilities list. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include each bullet exactly as given. Let's list the bullets from Knowledge, Skills, Abilities: - Outstanding written communication skills - Ability to research, plan, organize, and manage projects - Proven success in grant writing in the humanities/non-profit industry and knowledge of state, federal, private, and public funding agencies - Experience with Federal grants preferred - Ability to manage deadlines for self and others and maintain an up-to-date grant and sponsorship calendar for submission of proposals and stewardship reports. - Strong interpersonal and motivational skills and ability to work well within a team environment. - Demonstrated ability to write clearly and persuasively. - Attention to detail and accuracy are essential. - Accounting and budgeting experience preferred. - Demonstrated ability to navigate Google Apps and Microsoft Office software, especially Excel, is essential - Experience and fluency with, or ability to learn, Blackbaud ALTRU and CRM, Workday, Grant Research software including Foundation Directory Online, Grants.gov, and ease with learning new software applications. - Ability to handle confidential materials and donor information with discretion. - Ability to organize workflow and coordinate multiple concurrent activities in a high-volume environment, including the ability to set and meet realistic project timelines. - Ability to communicate clearly and effectively with internal and external colleagues. - Creative decision-making skills; research, analytical, and critical thinking skills. - Ability to work evenings and weekends, as necessary. We need to keep punctuation as is. Now Essential Functions list (the sentences). Let's extract each sentence separated by periods. The text: "Drafts and edits proposals and grant applications for Reynolda House and Reynolda Gardens including gathering, researching, and developing content and supporting materials, editing proposals, and developing budgets. Coordinates pre-award and/or post-award activities for grants. Pre-award activities include assisting Museum staff in the development, preparation, and submission of grant proposals. Post-award activities include the establishment of accounts in the financial accounting system, re-budgeting of funds, timely stewardship reports, and making or reporting changes to the award or expenditures. Collaborates cross-departmentally to compile and maintain relevant data including staff and visitor demographics, attendance data, survey responses, and marketing metrics. Completes and provides relevant data for state and national statistical surveys for museum and garden non-profit organizations.

Drafts related correspondence for stewardship and donor cultivation for Executive Director and Director of Advancement and External Affairs. Assists the Director of Advancement and External Affairs with administrative needs for fundraising efforts as well as Departmental operations. Performs other related duties as assigned." We need to turn each sentence into
  • . Some sentences are long but okay. Now About Reynolda paragraph: "Reynolda is set on 170 acres in Winston-Salem, N.C. and comprises Reynolda House Museum of American Art, Reynolda Gardens and Reynolda Village Shops and Restaurants. The Museum presents a renowned art collection in a historic and incomparable setting: the original 1917 interiors of Katharine and R. J. Reynolds’s 34,000-square-foot home.

Collects and analyzes key data points to support grant requests, provides project management support for institutional initiatives, assists in the coordination of major giving proposals, and provides strong development writing for letters and publication articles." We can combine them into About the role section: maybe two paragraphs. Now ensure we don't include boilerplate like "External Applicants Please ensure..." etc. Remove all application instructions, etc. Now produce HTML fragment:
