USA (Remote)
Posted 10 hrs ago
Job Description
SWGA Homecare is a growing healthcare technology and home-care company building its funding infrastructure. This is an entrepreneurial founding-stage opportunity to build a non-dilutive and strategic funding pipeline before lending becomes a major capital strategy.
All open positionsEmployment type: Part-time, Contractor (strategic executive), with potential to expand as funding and company operations grow.
Location: Remote (US), with occasional travel to Southwest Georgia as appropriate.
The mission
Own the company’s grants and strategic funding strategy, identify qualified non-dilutive capital opportunities, build institutional relationships, and move opportunities from discovery through submission, award, compliance, and reporting.
What you'll do
- Build and maintain a grants and strategic funding pipeline, prioritizing qualified, high-probability opportunities.

- Track submissions, decisions, awards, reporting requirements, and renewal opportunities.
- Establish repeatable funding processes and an executive funding dashboard.
- Identify strategic partnerships that can unlock grants or other non-dilutive resources.
Bootstrap orientation
We are looking for an entrepreneurial operator, not someone who simply fills out grant applications.

Preferred background
Demonstrated grant development, fundraising, or business development experience. Familiarity with healthcare, health tech, home care, rural/community programs, workforce initiatives, or economic development is valuable.
