Award Manager information

What is an award manager?

Award Managers are professionals responsible for overseeing grants, contracts, or other types of awards within an organization, typically in academic, nonprofit, or research settings. They ensure compliance with funding agency requirements, manage budgets, and coordinate reporting and documentation. Award Managers work closely with principal investigators, finance teams, and sponsors to facilitate the successful administration of externally funded projects.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an award manager, and why are they important?

To thrive as an Award Manager, you need expertise in grant management, compliance, and budgeting, often supported by a degree in business administration, finance, or a related field. Familiarity with grant management systems (such as Salesforce or Fluxx), and knowledge of donor regulations and reporting requirements, is typically required. Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and effective communication help build successful partnerships and ensure accurate record-keeping. These competencies are essential for managing complex funding portfolios, maintaining compliance, and maximizing the impact of awarded resources.

How does an award manager typically collaborate with program teams and stakeholders throughout the grant lifecycle?

Award Managers play a crucial role in the coordination between program teams, finance, and external stakeholders during the entire grant lifecycle. They ensure that all compliance requirements are met, manage reporting deadlines, and facilitate clear communication between departments to address any grant-related issues. Regular meetings and status updates are common, allowing Award Managers to proactively resolve potential challenges and maintain alignment with donor expectations. This collaborative approach not only helps in smooth project implementation but also supports accountability and transparency across the organization.

Guest Service Manager - Award Winning Speakeasy

The Americano

Scottsdale, AZ • On-site

$22 - $27/hr

Full-time

Re-posted 15 days ago

Job description

Tell Your Friends – Scottsdale, AZ

Tell Your Friends isn’t just an award-winning bar. It’s a secret worth sharing — a dimly lit, high-energy cocktail lounge hidden beneath The Americano. At TYF where impeccable cocktails meet an atmosphere of energy, cool vibes, music, and curated connection. We’re the place where style, elegance and edge play all night long — and we’re looking for a Guest Service Ambassador who lives for that kind of energy.
You’ll be the pulse and heart of the room: part Maitre’d, part operator, part vibe curator. From door to drink to final farewell, you ensure every guest is wrapped in friendly world-class hospitality with a wink of something more.
But this isn’t just about charm — we’re looking for someone who knows the business of hospitality too.

What You’ll Do:
  • Lead the guest experience from start to finish welcoming guests, guiding VIPs experience, supporting our membership program, managing flow as you create the energy and vibe throughout the night.
  • Build and manage relationships with regulars, high-profile guests, industry players, and new faces, ensuring everyone feels like they belong and leave wanting more.
  • Oversee reservations and the floor - working the door with the host team, and supporting the service team to optimize table placements, pacing, while optimizing seating.
  • Lead pre-shift meetings, support training and service execution providing purposeful strong hospitable presence both on the floor.
  • Support service where needed — whether that means jumping behind the bar, assisting with VIP bottle service, or managing high-volume table support.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with bar culinary teams and ownership to ensure seamless service, guest satisfaction, and the night’s success.

Membership Program Management:
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for members - handling membership onboarding, renewals, and personalized communication.
  • Manage the membership database, tracking engagement, event attendance, and spending patterns.
  • Collaborate with leadership to design and execute exclusive member events, perks, and experiences.
  • Develop and implement systems to recognize VIP and repeat guests, ensuring tailored touchpoints and follow-ups.
  • Generate monthly reports on membership growth, retention, and satisfaction metrics

Compensation & Perks:
  • Membership program performance bonuses
  • Dining and event privileges
  • Opportunities for growth within the Clive Collective/Creation family
  • Competitive hourly pay + service incentives

What You Bring:
  • A magnetic, hospitality-first presence, guests and your team trust your instincts and follow your lead.
  • 2+ years in a guest-facing leadership role (VIP host, AGM, nightlife floor manager, or hospitality-focused service captain).
  • Previous bartending and/or serving experience is required - you’ve been in the weeds and know how to support a team that’s deep in it.
  • Deep understanding of service, flow, guest behavior, and the subtleties that shape the room.
  • Experience with cash management, tip reconciliation, opening/closing procedures is a plus.
  • Working knowledge of OpenTable, SevenRooms, or other reservation platforms is essential.
  • Unshakable under pressure, warm with guests, direct with your team, and always one step ahead of the room.
At Tell Your Friends, we don’t just serve drinks — we serve moments people talk about long after the night ends. If you’ve got the style, discipline, and hospitality chops to keep the magic alive, let’s talk.
