• Supervise the grants administration team, establishing operational procedures and workflows that ensure efficient and compliant program delivery
• Monitor organizational performance and grant compliance across all funded providers, including financial reconciliation and audit readiness
• Coordinate across finance, contracts, technical assistance, and compliance teams to support rural healthcare organizations
• Serve as Program Director during absences, exercising leadership and decision-making authority for daily operations
