Pivoting from private sector bidding to grant writing for the third sector

Hi Rita,

I am considering a move from private sector bid management to grant writing – perhaps with a focus on securing funds for ‘small fish’ environmental restoration projects or similar. I wonder what your thoughts are on the cross functional skills I may be able to utilise in this transition versus what new skills specific to grant writing I may need to acquire – and from where. Many thanks!
