About The Position

The Grant Program Manager runs the day-to-day work of Methodist Jennie Edmundson Hospital’s two grant-funded Hub programs: the Southwest Iowa Center of Excellence (CoE) and the Combat Cancer Health Hub. The role keeps deliverables on schedule, tracks program data, meets compliance and reporting requirements, and keeps Spoke partners connected and informed. This position is grant-funded and exists only while the grants that fund it remain funded. The position is based at Methodist Jennie Edmundson Hospital in Council Bluffs, Iowa. The schedule is Monday through Friday and is very flexible, but the role is not fully remote and requires regular in-person reporting. The manager works within the Director’s direction and independently takes initiative to support the programs.
