Grants Contract Specialist

Grants & Development Manager — SR1 Cradle to Career Initiative SoulFood International / SR1 · Mississippi (on-site) · Full-time Priority first hire · Performance-based · Salary + bonus

SR1 is building a Cradle to Career initiative that carries our communities from early learning all the way to a living-wage career — and we have the track record to back it up, with numerous educational awards already to our name. Now we are hiring the Grants & Development Manager who will fund it.

This is the hire that powers the whole initiative. You'll write and win the grants that turn our proven ability to execute into funded programs. You'll start with our Agriculture Health Initiative — funding the farm, the food, and the nutrition and health programming that anchors the pipeline — then expand into the education and workforce initiatives that follow. Your pay rewards results: a solid base plus a bonus tied to clear, agreed milestones.
