Grant Analyst
  • Appleton, WI
  • remote
  • Temporary / Contract
  • 37.00 - 40.00 USD / Hourly
  • Grant Analyst | Make an Impact With Your Financial Expertise Are you an accounting or finance detail oriented who enjoys digging into the numbers while also seeing the real-world impact behind the work? We are looking for a Grant Analyst to join a well-established service organization in Appleton and play an important role in the financial management of federally funded programs. This long-term contract opportunity offers much more than tracking dollars and preparing reports. You’ll have ownership throughout the grant lifecycle—partnering with program leaders, monitoring multimillion-dollar funding, analyzing spending, supporting audits, and helping ensure critical funding is used effectively and responsibly. If you have experience with federal grants, grant accounting, financial analysis, or federally funded programs and enjoy being the person others turn to for answers, this could be a great next step. What You’ll Be Doing Take ownership of the day-to-day financial management of federal grant awards, including budgets, spending, cost allocations, and compliance requirements. Monitor grant activity and analyze spending trends to help teams stay ahead of budget concerns and maximize available funding. Prepare funding draw requests and ensure reimbursements and cash activity align with approved budgets and grant requirements. Prepare and submit required financial reports, ensuring deadlines and federal reporting requirements are met. Reconcile grant activity to the general ledger and applicable federal payment systems, researching and resolving discrepancies along the way. Serve as a financial resource to program leaders and internal stakeholders, helping them understand budgets, variances, spending trends, and available funding. Assist with developing grant budgets, forecasts, and financial analyses throughout the lifecycle of each award. Gain valuable exposure to internal and external audits, Single Audit requirements, and federal grant compliance. Coordinate the financial closeout of completed grants, ensuring reporting, documentation, and outstanding obligations are fully resolved. Why This Opportunity? This is an excellent opportunity for someone who wants to combine accounting, financial analysis, and meaningful work. You’ll have the chance to build relationships across the organization, gain deeper exposure to federal funding and compliance, and take ownership of work that directly supports important programs in the community. If you enjoy problem-solving, working with numbers, and being a trusted financial partner rather than simply producing reports, we’d love to hear from you.
