Donor Support Specialist

$18 - $22 per hour
Temporary

LaSalle Network

LaSalle Network is partnering with a nationally recognized nonprofit organization to hire a Donor Support Specialist to join their team in Chicago. This is an exciting opportunity to join a high-profile Development team and play a key role in supporting a dedicated donor ticketing program.

This is not a traditional customer service role. You'll support a high-profile donor base and coordinate everything from individual ticket requests to large corporate orders and special arrangements. The ideal candidate is highly organized, responsive and customer-service oriented, with the ability to manage multiple requests while maintaining a high level of accuracy.


What You'll Do

  • Serve as a dedicated point of contact for donor and founding member ticketing requests, including presale access and ticket availability
  • Manage special donor arrangements, including reservations, parking, tours and other accommodations
  • Monitor the development inbox and provide timely support for donor and founding member inquiries
  • Partner with front-line fundraisers and the Development team to coordinate requests and ensure a seamless donor experience
  • Track incoming requests and manage workflow through Asana, ensuring details and follow-up are handled accurately
  • Prioritize requests, resolve questions and escalate more complex needs when appropriate
  • Support day-to-day donor operations and additional Development projects as needed


What We're Looking For

  • 2–3 years of professional experience
  • Strong customer service background; retail, hospitality, ticketing or client-facing experience is a plus
  • Nonprofit, fundraising, development or donor relations experience preferred, but not required
  • Comfortable working with donors, including high-capacity individuals and corporate contacts
  • Strong organizational skills and exceptional attention to detail
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to manage multiple requests and competing priorities
  • Strong follow-through and problem-solving skills


Position Details

  • Compensation: $18–22/hour based on experience
  • Schedule: Monday–Friday, 9:00 AM–6:00 PM
  • Location: Chicago, IL
  • Work Model: Hybrid, 1–2 days onsite per week
  • Employment Type: Temporary Contract, approximately 3 months, with potential for extension based on performance
  • Start Date: ASAP
  • Benefits: LaSalle Network consultants are eligible to enroll in benefits. For details, visit LaSalle Network Consultant Benefits
If you're an organized, customer-focused professional looking for an opportunity to support a high-impact Development team and work with a nationally recognized nonprofit organization, apply today!
