About the Role

The Company is in search of a visionary Chief Development Officer (CDO) to lead the diversification of its funding streams and the exploration of resource-generating initiatives. The successful candidate will be instrumental in shaping the organization's future, particularly in the growth of a philanthropic community that shares a commitment to the power of storytelling in education, connection, and inspiration. This role is pivotal in an era where the need for such transformative experiences is more pronounced than ever. The CDO will be dedicated to the mission of the company, which is to capture and share the stories of individuals whose lives have inspired meaningful change, and to provide a platform for reliable, trustworthy historical information that fosters understanding of democracy, justice, and social change. Applicants for the CDO position at the company should be accomplished and innovative, with a proven track record in fundraising and a deep understanding of the nonprofit sector. The role requires a strategic thinker who can develop and implement comprehensive fundraising strategies, including major gifts, grants, and innovative campaigns. The ideal candidate will have experience in building and nurturing donor relationships, as well as a passion for the values of integrity, historical truth, artistry, and public purpose that the organization embodies. A background in media, education, or related fields is a plus, as is a network of connections within philanthropic and educational communities. The CDO will work closely with the leadership team to ensure the long-term sustainability of the organization, particularly in the wake of its recent transition to full nonprofit operations and the exciting developments in its digital and educational programming.
