For our newest leadership role, Grant Researcher / Writer / Facilitator, Groundworks seeks a dynamic team member with demonstrated success in grant research, grant writing, and grant reporting as well as experience in virtual and in-person training and facilitation for a professional audience.

Groundworks seeks candidates familiar with New Mexico’s unique social sector and culture. As a cohort facilitator, the role will apply Groundworks’ cohort blueprint model to manage, communicate with, and facilitate multiple simultaneous statewide cohorts focused on preparing for, applying for, and attaining grants of significance and other capacity building efforts.
