Princeton University seeks a highly motivated, well-qualified individual to serve as a Grant and Contract Administrator (GCA) in the Office of Research and Project Administration (ORPA). The GCA will be responsible for a portfolio of academic departments supported by grants, contracts and other research-related agreements. Primary duties include the review and submission of research proposals, along with the negotiation and acceptance of grants and contracts. In addition, the GCA will work in close collaboration with multiple stakeholders on and off campus to help ensure the overall effective coordination of research administration services, systems, policies, and processes.

The GCA is responsible for the formal solicitation, negotiation and administration of extramural support for University research, training, and public service projects funded by government and non-government sponsors (sponsored projects).
Responsibilities
The GCA is responsible for conducting comprehensive analysis of proposals for extramural support to government and non-government entities, and negotiating a full array of grants, contracts and other research-related agreements, some of which may require risk mitigation recommendations and strategies related to complex or problematic terms and conditions). The SGCA will partner with the ORPA Contracts Manager regarding nonfunded agreements (i.e., confidentiality agreements, data use agreements) as well as funded agreements that contain particularly challenging/potentially risky terms. The GCA will also collaborate with the Subaward Administrator as necessary at proposal stage, as well as to provide assistance in preparing and negotiating subawards issued.
The GCA is responsible for advising and assisting Princeton University department administrators, principal investigators, and staff members; interpreting and explaining request for proposal conditions, grant, contract and other research-related agreement terms and conditions, and assisting in the resolution of issues that develop in the course of projects by consulting with the investigator(s), staff, and sponsors. The GCA will participate in developing and providing training on sponsored research to the campus community.
The GCA must have a strong service orientation, good problem-solving abilities, effective oral and written communication skills, and the ability to work collaboratively and effectively with faculty, staff, students, and sponsors. As a professional staff member, the GCA is an advocate for responsive, effective research administration.
