The successful candidate will serve as the primary director of development for two colleges and will be responsible for overseeing and leading the directors of development for additional colleges and areas. This role involves strategic planning, team management, and close collaboration with deans, campus leaders, and advancement partners to ensure the advancement of philanthropic goals.
