Good morning,
I am seeking enthusiastic and qualified candidates to fill a total of FIVE positions in the College of Agricultural Sciences as Penn State University in picturesque State College, PA. I am adding to our staff
of twelve, filling 4 new positions, 2 each in pre- and post-award, and also a manager for post-award services. The sponsored programs enterprise as Penn State is largely decentralized to the colleges, so you’ll be actively involved in the full life cycle
of grants and contracts from preparation and submission through financial management and closeout. The depth and breadth of the sponsored programs portfolio for agriculture is surprising to most people. We work with all the federal sponsors, various states
and municipal entities as well as corporations and a large volume of international partners. We’re a high volume office (800+ proposal submissions and 1,000+ active accounts) with a great team of professionals and it’s never boring! Central PA enjoys all
four seasons and the gorgeous fall foliage in the mountains is almost here, followed by winter sports and then outdoor enjoyment in the spring and summer. We also have a robust food, arts and culture scene! Penn State offers a full benefit package including
75% tuition discount for you, your spouse and dependents.
I hope I’ve piqued your interest enough to take a look at our job postings via the links below. We will begin reviewing applications immediately and will continue until the positions are filled.
Asst. Director/Post-Award Lead Administrator
