    You’re like me. You are respectful, professional and take your business seriously. You value accountability and work best with professionals who understand the hard work that goes into earning each dollar. You understand that for all services, there is a trade-off between time, quality and cost - and this should be your choice. This is especially the case when it comes to your business. What’s right for one project isn’t necessarily right for yours. This is why when it comes to my Upwork freelancing I try to give you the best of communication, responsiveness and quality. At the start of each relationship I will make sure to extensively scope out the project so that we both understand what I can do for you and you are satisfied. This is why I have a 100% job satisfaction rate on Upwork. I hold a Masters of Business (Logistics & Supply Chain Management) from RMIT, specialising in international development and emergency management. I also hold a Graduate Certificate in Community Development (Emergency Management) and Bachelor of Arts (Political Science & Sociology) from the Australian National University (ANU). Currently I am ghost-writing for the following businesses: - US based refrigeration company looking to enter the Australian market. - A trucking company wanting to minimise the effect of overseas competitors selling aftermarket parts - A legal firm wanting to improve their processes in order to minimise time spent training new staff - A leadership company wanting to publicise their leadership training camps and new E-book. If you want a professional and experienced freelancer without the stress then get in touch to discuss your requirements.

    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. UNIVERSITY EDUCATION My research, writing, and analytical capacity developed during my studies. • Master of Science from the Flinders University School of Medicine • Masters in Health Administration from UNSW (Health Planning) • Graduate Diploma in Nutrition in Dietetics • Graduate Diploma in Diabetes Education • Bachelor of Agricultural Science ( Major Animal Physiology and Biochemistry) FREELANCING CLIENTS AND SUCCESS RATE As a sole practitioner, I won over 60 million dollars for health services, not-for-profits, health charity foundations, local government, for-profit companies, and start-ups. I’m flexible and work with clients in different ways, from idea to project development, developing the project logic, finding the evidence, partnership facilitation, grant spotting, funder liaison and advocacy, grant writing, editing, proofreading and managing acquittals. My success rate is very high—at around 75-85%. As an experienced grant writer, “I look at the grant through the eyes of the funder rather than the organisation seeking funds.” My expertise in grant writing spans across a wide range of sectors. Over the years, I have come to realise that even though I am often not a technical expert in all areas, my expertise lies in understanding the Response to Tender, Specifications, or Grant Guidelines and writing the grant persuasively with deep research and evidence to match. I have successfully secured grants for projects in mainstream health, indigenous health, justice, infrastructure, education, employment, regional development, tourism, agriculture, digital innovation for SMART communities, software innovation for health, domestic and family violence, elder abuse, migrant and settlement services, education and employment pathways, and infrastructure. This diverse portfolio reflects my ability to adapt to different sectors and deliver results.
