Grants Research Analyst Internship
The Aubrey Group is seeking two creative interns to join our Grants team. This post is an excellent fit for young professionals looking to increase their understanding of local government, state and federal departments, regulatory compliance, fundraising, nonprofit management, and grant seeking. We welcome candidates who are passionate about the impact that thoughtfully designed strategic programming can have on communities and who share in our values of kindness, curiosity and diligence. Our interns will learn grant writing and program development, and develop expertise in specific subject areas. Interns will be expected to report to our Camden, NJ office with a hybrid schedule in place for virtual workdays.
This internship is a great opportunity for students seeking exposure to all aspects of government and the intersections of the public and private sectors. Our clients include local governments (cities and towns), housing authorities, institutions of higher education, utility authorities, nonprofits, and for-profit businesses. Additionally, we submit applications for our clients to all federal and state agencies as well as various foundations.

This is a valuable opportunity for students interested in public administration or public policy.

Company Background and Culture
Our team creates content for and facilitates the submission of competitive funding proposals, licensure processes, and tax credit applications. Our clients are working on the front lines of urban development and rural preservation. The problems that they face are interesting and important, and our consultants are passionate about helping them design and fund innovative solutions.
We understand our work on individual projects in connection to the big picture – who we are as a country and a community, what we owe to each other, and how we can work together to accomplish our shared goals. We see our time spent on work as an important piece of our overall fulfillment, and we strive to build a workplace that enriches, challenges, and supports every member of our team. We do our best to balance having high aspirations and expectations of each other with the humility and grace that allows us to understand that we are not perfect. We have an understanding amongst our team that no one “gets in trouble” for making a mistake: only for concealing one, or refusing to take responsibility. We see it as our shared responsibility to learn from and help each other.
Our firm believes that building diversity into the foundation of how we do business creates a more fulfilling workplace and allows us to better serve our clients. We take responsibility for developing a workplace that is attractive to, and supportive of, individuals from diverse backgrounds. This includes, but is not limited to, people of color, people who have experiences with disability, LGBTQ folks, people with experiences with immigration, those who honor diverse religious traditions, and individuals from poor and working-class backgrounds. We also value diversity of professional, educational, and technical backgrounds. If you see a potential fit for yourself on our team, but this specific position description isn't the best fit for you, we’d still like to hear from you.
