Director of Philanthropy

Rivet

RIVET is seeking a strategic, relationship-driven fundraiser to grow, steward, and activate a community of ~100 donors, focused on high-net-worth individuals and family foundations. As we scale towards a future powered by Gen Z, RIVET’s philanthropic community plays a critical role in funding, advising, and growing this movement.

The Director of Philanthropy leads RIVET’s fundraising and donor engagement strategy - responsible for securing significant philanthropic investment while stewarding a highly engaged network of families and individuals. Working closely with the CEO, Impact, and Marketing teams, you will lead on frontline fundraising and manage a robust donor pool to ensure members feel deeply connected to RIVET’s mission, people, and impact. This is a hands-on role for someone who is excited to shape a global philanthropic community. RIVET currently has four offerings: Leadership Council (for families), Youth Impact Council (designed for individuals), Youth Impact Fund (for family foundations), and Social Innovator Accelerator (for firms).

This new, evolved role will focus on three work streams:

  1. Drive philanthropic revenue : Lead frontline fundraising across the organization by identifying and developing a donor pipeline, moving prospects through the cultivation cycle, and closing gifts.
  2. Steward & strengthen RIVET’s donor community through effective communication and programming: Build, manage, and deepen relationships with RIVET donors, ensuring members, including teen & young adult family members, feel highly engaged, valued, and connected to RIVET’s mission and people.
  3. Activate donors as a force for organizational growth : Design and deliver meaningful engagement experiences to leverage donors’ networks, insights, and influence to support RIVET’s broader growth, including across new foundations, firms, and brand partnerships.

You will join a dedicated, low-ego team in launching a first-of-its-kind philanthropic movement led by youth. Supported by the CEO and admin team, this role works across the organization and volunteer leadership.

Check out the full role overview here!

Please make sure you read BEFORE applying.

We will review applications on a rolling basis.
