The role also involves campaign management, staff leadership, and cross-departmental collaboration to ensure that fundraising efforts are aligned with the organization's goals. The ideal candidate will be an experienced and charismatic leader, a dynamic development professional, and an inspiring communicator. They should be committed to the values of the organization, including its dedication to integrating accountability and supporting a racially equitable environment. A minimum of 7 years' progressive fundraising experience, direct management of a professional fundraising team, and a working knowledge of philanthropic best practices are essential.
