EdSource is Hiring!

Grants & Fund Development

The majority of EdSource's annual revenues are from multi-year general support grants, supplemented by smaller grants to specific projects in the program. Most grants come from large and small private foundations, with a smaller percentage from corporate giving programs. EdSource also receives gifts from individual donors. EdSource has a long history of financial stability, but a sizable portion of revenues has to be generated each year. The agency is in a programmatic growth mode, and in the coming years, we hope to increase our unrestricted support as well as diversify our sources of support.

Our grants manager is retiring from EdSource after 12 years on our staff! We are looking for experienced individuals who can contribute to executing the full range of work related to the agency’s grants: prospect research, development (with the executive director) of letters of inquiry and full grant proposals, and development of grant reports; identifying and cultivating prospects and securing funding for the annual public Forum; identifying and cultivating individual major donors. Role, title, and compensation will be negotiable depending on qualifications and goodness of fit with the organization and our needs.

Descriptions for these positions will be finalized by June, but we will accept letters of interest and resumes for these positions now.
