Main Purpose of Job

Do you have a passion for helping prevent veteran homelessness? Are you seeking an incredible opportunity to make a tangible, daily difference in the lives of some of Maryland’s most vulnerable veterans?

The Maryland Department of Veterans Affairs is hiring a Grants Administrator for the Maryland Veterans Trust, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization established in Maryland statute to provide financial and other assistance directly to veterans and their families, as well as to public and private organizations that do the same. Among those we serve are veterans seeking to avoid imminent foreclosure or eviction, the repossession of their car or a shutoff of their electric service. The Grants Administrator of the Maryland Veterans Trust is a hands-on position touching every step of the grants lifecycle from application to disbursement and beyond.
