Determined within a relatively short period of time

The Transfer Operations Coordinator will assist the Executive Director in monitoring and supporting grant-related fiscal operations. While not a decision-making role, the Coordinator will play a key part in:

• Budget Support: Assisting with tracking grant expenditures, preparing financial documentation, and ensuring costs align with approved budgets.

• Asset Stewardship: Helping to safeguard the value of the multi-year grant investment by maintaining accurate records and supporting reporting requirements.

• Risk Reduction: Supporting compliance activities that reduce institutional exposure to financial, legal, and reputational risk.

• Operational Accountability: Coordinating documentation related to contracts, vendor services, and student support programming to ensure proper oversight.

Through these responsibilities, the Coordinator strengthens fiscal transparency, protects institutional assets, and ensures smooth execution of the grant’s objectives, under the guidance of the Executive Director.
