Headquartered in Alpharetta, Georgia, National Christian Foundation (NCF) is a 501(c)(3) charitable grantmaking ministry that provides creative giving solutions and inspires biblical generosity among Christian families, advisors, and charities. NCF has received more than $33 billion in contributions and made more than $25 billion in giver-recommended grants to 90,000 charities.

We combine a faith-based approach and like-minded local presence with the support and expertise of a trusted national organization. The purpose of this role is to plan, execute, and close a diverse portfolio of projects, while constructing business cases evaluating the cost and impact of future projects. This servant leader enables our team to turn strategic vision into tangible impact for NCF through effective project management, shepherding organizational change management, and leveraging PM software and best practices.
