About the role

Houston Arts Alliance seeks a Director of Grants to oversee the distribution of about $15M in public arts funding annually, contracted with the City of Houston Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs. The role leads a team, advances fair and transparent processes, and reports to the CEO, with a hybrid schedule combining remote and in-office work. Applicants will bring strong grant-management experience, collaboration across departments, and a commitment to equity in funding decisions.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
