About the Role

The Company is in search of an Executive Director to lead its philanthropic efforts, with a focus on advancing the mission of the University. The successful candidate will be the chief executive and primary fundraiser, responsible for guiding the Foundation into a new phase of philanthropic expansion. This role is pivotal in building transformational donor relationships and shaping a strategic advancement program that aligns with the University's ambitions. The Executive Director will be the key link between North American constituents and the University's leadership, operating at the intersection of higher education, philanthropy, and international engagement. The ideal Executive Director will be a relationship-driven leader, capable of translating institutional priorities into compelling philanthropic opportunities, and will be tasked with growing a robust donor pipeline and stewarding a vibrant alumni and supporter community. The role requires a strategic vision and hands-on execution to elevate the Foundation's presence and impact, with a target of increasing annual fundraising significantly. The Executive Director will play a crucial part in expanding access to education and strengthening pathways for the next generation of global leaders, particularly in the context of the University's bold vision centered on transformation, equity, and international engagement.
