Job Description OKLAHOMA ARTS COUNCIL The Oklahoma Arts Council (OAC) is the official state agency for the support and development of the arts. We strive to build a strong, service-minded team to support our mission to lead, cultivate, and amplify the transformative power of the arts for all Oklahomans and their communities.

We are seeking an organized, service-minded, and detail-oriented individual to support the agency’s Grants Office and provide clear, responsive assistance to applicants, grantees, and review panelists across Oklahoma. The ideal candidate takes initiative, communicates clearly, works well with others, and enjoys helping people navigate systems and processes.

POSITION SUMMARY The Grants Coordinator is an important part of the Oklahoma Arts Council’s Grants Office and supports the grants management team in carrying out OAC grant programs clearly, accurately, and consistently. This position helps keep grant processes organized by supporting application and report intake, grant records and data management, scheduling, portal access, panel review materials, applicant and grantee communications, and other grants office workflows.

The Grants Coordinator works closely with the Grants Director, grants staff, and program staff to support the administration of OAC grant programs. The position helps keep grant processes moving by coordinating information, materials, communication, and follow-up between grants staff, program staff, applicants, and grantees.

This position is ideal for someone who enjoys organization, public service, problem-solving, and supporting work that requires accuracy, communication, and follow-through. The Grants Coordinator is often one of the first points of contact for organizations working with OAC grants and helps create a positive, clear, and professional experience for applicants and grantees across Oklahoma.
