  • identifying funding opportunities, guidelines and requirements;
  • supporting the proposal preparation, from eligibility/feasibility check to grant writing;
  • supporting the partnership creation;
  • developing budget and budget justification;
  • preliminary ethics review;
  • obtaining internal approval;
  • reviewing and submission of proposals;
  • organising ad hoc training and coaching (e.g. mock interviews)
