Judy Nichols Grant Writer +0610429121258 April 2024 ABOUT ME I am a professional grant writer, dedicated to making a tangible difference in communities across Australia and New Zealand. From small community projects to nation or state-wide tenders and large infrastructure, I have successfully secured funding for initiatives valued in the millions. My grant writing expertise is built on my academic learning and work experience. GOVERNMENT EMPLOYMENT EXPERIENCE I can liaise with government officials and understand the policies underpinning funding opportunities. Connecting policy with organizational needs is essential for successful grant writing. My government experience includes: • Commonwealth government researcher with the National Heart Foundation, • Senior Primary Health Policy Advisor for the Victorian Department of Health, • Community Services/Aged Care Manager in Local government, • Inaugural Primary Care and Community Health Services Manager – Victorian government • Inaugural Executive Officer – Primary Care Partnership South West (a State government policy lead change management initiative) I found love in the bush and transitioned to freelance writing, driven by the pursuit of funding for causes promoting positive health and social or economic development outcomes.
