Careers

The Research Financial Analyst (RFA) position will be a critical member of the Division of General Internal Medicine. The responsibilities of the RFA include, but not limited to, long-range planning and formulating innovative solutions to the full range of grant management problems, which are frequent due to continual program changes, unpredictable fund sources, and a wide network of collaborators internally and externally. The position requires the incumbent to have a variety of highly specialized professional skills in grants, contracts, and financial analyses.

The RFA is responsible for establishing and maintaining standards and procedures for the fiscal and administrative management of extramural and intramural funds in the Division. At the RFA 3 classification, we expect the incumbent to manage a more complex level of contracts and grants. The incumbent will work collaboratively with the DA, Principal Investigators (PIs), the Grants and Proposals Team, and other business entities in the Office of Research and Controller's Office to facilitate and expedite the process of administering extramural funds for research faculty by reconciling expenses against approved budgets, generating projections based on actual expenditures, preparing the fiscal closing reports and final reconciliation of costs, troubleshooting over expenditures and appropriation issues, working with research faculty for post-award management issues, and other duties as assigned.
