Anthro Energy is hiring a Government Programs Manager to lead execution of our government-funded programs and help grow the non-dilutive funding. The role blends three key efforts: leading technical program management of awards, writing winning grant and contract proposals, and supporting non-dilutive strategy and business development.
You will lead existing programs end to end, including technical scope, schedule, milestones, deliverables, budget, risk, government reporting, and compliance. You will work cross-functionally internally and with external partners to keep programs on track and audit ready. You will lead proposal development from solicitation through submission. You will also support the VP of Government Programs and the executive team in identifying, qualifying, and capturing non-dilutive opportunities aligned with Anthro's go-to-market strategy.
