  • Drafting, reviewing, and finalizing NMTC Allocation Applications and supporting materials.
  • Writing compelling narratives for business strategy, community outcomes, and other sections to maximize scoring and competitive success.
  • Conducting quantitative analysis of client's track record of investments and impact metrics.
  • Collaborating with internal and external teams to identify, evaluate, and source pipeline projects aligned with each CDE's goal.
  • Researching and synthesizing relevant industry data, trends, and terms to strengthen business and community impact strategies.
  • Coordinating with investors to source and gather commitments, letters of interest, and other documentation required for application submission.
  • Managing timelines and deliverables to ensure on-time, accurate submissions under tight deadlines.

Successful Candidates Will Demonstrate/Possess:
  • Bachelor's degree in a relevant field (e.g., economics, community development, nonprofit management, business administration, finance, public policy, journalism, communications, etc.) or demonstrate relevant experience.
  • Minimum 2 years of professional experience in NMTC Application development, including participation in at least two NMTC Allocation Application rounds.
  • Working knowledge of NMTC program structures, community development finance, related reporting requirements and the CDFI Fund's AMIS platform.
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to articulate complex concepts clearly and persuasively.
  • Strong quantitative and analytical ability, including comfort using Microsoft Excel and related tools.
  • Excellent organizational skills; ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines simultaneously.
  • Project management experience, including ownership of complex, multi-stakeholder projects, and proficiency with project management tools.
  • Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to collaborate effectively with internal teams, clients, and external stakeholders.
  • A proactive mindset, critical thinking, and strategic problem solving.
