Mae cyfle newydd a chyffrous wedi codi yn adran Cyllid Allanol Coleg Gwyr Abertawe i baratoi a chyflwyno ceisiadau grant, cyllid a thendrau o’r radd flaenaf ar gyfer y Coleg.

Gan weithio’n agos â’r Pennaeth Cyllid Allanol ac Ymchwil, byddwch yn gyfrifol am greu cynnwys, cefnogi rhaglen reolaidd o geisiadau a thendrau ar gyfer rhaglenni a ariennir gan gyllid Ewropeaidd, y Llywodraeth neu gyllid allanol eraill, a chysylltu ag ystod eang o dimoedd o fewn y coleg i ddatblygu bidiau o ansawdd uchel.

Byddwch yn gweithio gydag arbenigwyr pwnc a’n timau masnachol i ddeall a chrynhoi dogfennau helaeth ac ysgrifennu cynnwys dengar sy’n gwneud y mwyaf o’u gwybodaeth arbenigol. Byddwch hefyd yn datblygu a chynnal ystod eang o wybodaeth i wella ein cyflwyniadau yn barhaus.

Bydd gennych radd neu gymhwyster cyfwerth (yn ddelfrydol mewn Saesneg neu bwnc perthnasol arall), sgiliau cyfathrebu gwych ar lafar ac yn ysgrifenedig yn ogystal â phrofiad blaenorol o ysgrifennu cynigion gwerthu ac ymatebion tendro llwyddiannus.

Gyda sgiliau trefnu gwych a’r gallu i weithio dan bwysau i derfynau amser i gyflawni canlyniadau cynlluniedig, bydd gennych lygad dda am gyflwyno a byddwch yn gymwys i ddefnyddio amrywiaeth o becynnau Microsoft.

Ni cheir ceisiadau Cymraeg eu trin yn llai ffafriol na cheisiadau Saesneg. 

Mae Coleg Gwyr Abertawe yn ymrwymedig i ddiogelu a hyrwyddo lles pobl ifanc ac yn disgwyl i’r holl staff rhannu’r ymrwymiad hwn. Bydd penodiadau eu gwneud ar sail gwiriad DBS manylach a bydd gofyn i chi ymaelodi â Chyngor Gweithlu Addysg Cymru.

Fel rheol, bydd penodiadau yn cael eu gwneud ar waelod y raddfa gyflog gyda chynyddrannau blynyddol ar 1 Awst bob blwyddyn (ar yr amod eich bod wedi cwblhau 6 mis o wasanaeth).
