The role reports directly to the Senior Vice President for Development and Alumni Relations and works closely with Development Resources, frontline fundraising teams, annual and leadership giving, donor relations, communications, and other DAR functions. The Executive Director will also partner appropriately with University technology, information security, compliance, and other institutional partners to ensure that solutions are implemented using approved tools and consistent with University requirements.

Provide direct supervision, coaching, prioritization, and technical guidance to team members.* Build the capabilities of existing staff who have demonstrated aptitude in automation, agentic workflows, and emerging technologies. **Fundraising Enablement*** Partner with fundraising leaders to identify opportunities to improve prospect identification, portfolio management, donor engagement, solicitation preparation, stewardship, pipeline development, and fundraiser productivity.* Develop tools and workflows that make it easier for frontline fundraisers to access information, prepare for donor interactions, execute follow-up activity, and manage portfolios.* Support the development of technology-enabled approaches for engaging donors and prospects who cannot economically receive traditional one-to-one staff coverage.* Work closely with Leadership Giving, Annual Giving, Estate and Gift Planning, Major Gifts, Principal Gifts, Medical Development, and other fundraising teams to identify opportunities for increased philanthropic productivity.* Help establish a disciplined process for moving successful pilots from experimentation into regular DAR practice. **Process Improvement and Organizational Effectiveness*** Work with Development Resources leadership to ensure that new approaches complement existing systems, data practices, and operational processes.* Help DAR staff understand and effectively use new tools and capabilities introduced by the division.* Partner with Professional Development & Training to develop practical training, guidance, examples, and resources. **Institutional Partnership and Responsible Use*** Ensure that tools and solutions developed by the team operate within University-approved technology environments and established policies.* Partner with appropriate University offices on information security, privacy, compliance, technology standards, and related requirements.* Protect confidential donor, prospect, alumni, patient, and University information.* Establish appropriate human review and accountability within DAR workflows that use artificial intelligence or automation.* Ensure that innovation efforts support, rather than displace, professional judgment and relationship-based fundraising. ***This list of duties and responsibilities is not intended to be all-inclusive and may be expanded to include other duties or responsibilities as necessary.*** **Core Qualifications:*** Bachelor's degree in business, analytics, information management, computer science, advancement, or a related field.* Minimum 10 years of relevant work experience.* Demonstrated experience personally building, configuring, prototyping, or implementing technology-enabled solutions, rather than solely managing projects or vendors.* Demonstrated experience using automation, low-code/no-code platforms, artificial intelligence tools, workflow technologies, or comparable platforms to solve operational problems.* Experience moving projects from concept and prototype through implementation and adoption.* Experience leading and developing staff.* Strong project management, prioritization, and execution skills.* Excellent judgment and the ability to work effectively in environments involving confidential or sensitive information.* Ability to communicate effectively with both senior executives and operational staff.* Demonstrated ability to work collaboratively across organizational boundaries.**Preferred Qualifications*** Experience in advancement, fundraising, higher education, nonprofit organizations, or another relationship-intensive enterprise.* Experience with CRM systems such as Salesforce, Blackbaud, Ellucian, or comparable platforms.* Experience using enterprise artificial intelligence and productivity platforms such as Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT Enterprise, Gemini, Claude, or comparable tools.* Experience developing AI-enabled workflows, agents, automations, or similar applications.* Experience with Microsoft Power Platform or comparable automation and low-code development environments.* Familiarity with fundraising operations, donor pipelines, prospect management, annual giving, major gifts, or advancement services.* Familiarity with privacy, security, and responsible-use considerations associated with sensitive institutional data.* Master's degree or relevant professional certifications preferred.
