About the Role

The Company is seeking a Chief Development Officer (CDO) to lead its comprehensive fundraising strategy and grow philanthropic support across individual, corporate, foundation, planned-giving, and community partnerships. The CDO will develop multi-year strategies and annual plans, personally cultivate and solicit major donors, and strengthen sustainable, diversified revenue. Responsibilities include advancing planned and legacy giving, endowment growth, donor stewardship, corporate partnerships, and fundraising events. The role also leads and develops the fundraising team, oversees donor research and CRM practices, manages budgets and forecasts, and collaborates across the organization to align fundraising with mission priorities and donor commitments. Candidates should bring progressive nonprofit fundraising leadership experience, generally eight or more years or comparable achievement, with a record of securing major gifts and managing full-cycle fundraising strategies. Required capabilities include leading and developing teams, building revenue plans, and working across major gifts, corporate philanthropy, planned giving, and donor stewardship. Strong financial and donor-data skills, CRM experience, and the ability to communicate forecasts and results are essential. The role also calls for excellent relationship-building, executive communication, public speaking, solicitation, negotiation, and cross-functional leadership skills, alongside a commitment to ethical fundraising, donor confidentiality, and responsible stewardship.
