After nine years as Signature Events Manager, and three years as Grants Manager, Dena Morrison is retiring from CSL, effective September 12. Under Dena’s leadership, CSL’s events grew to new heights, and she used her fantastic communication skills to have a highly-successful term as Grants Manager. We will share more about Dena’s impact at CSL closer to her retirement, but wanted to share this information along with the posting of the Grants Manager job opening.   While Dena will be impossible to replace, we are seeking a talented individual to join our team to make a significant contribution to our community as Grants Manager. Please use the link below to apply, and we encourage you to share this post! https://lnkd.in/gk__eNJ4
