Chief Philanthropy Officer

The Chief Philanthropy Officer (CPO) will be a bold, relational, and results-driven professional who will serve as the organization’s senior philanthropic leader and a key member of the executive team. The CPO will build and lead a comprehensive, multi-year philanthropy strategy that fuels ESP’s growth and advances its mission: creating transformative experiences for people with disabilities and their families and changing communities for the better. This is both an enterprise leadership role and a frontline fundraising role. The CPO will lead and develop a high-performing team, personally manage a portfolio of ESP’s most significant donors and prospects, partner closely with the CEO and boards, and strengthen the systems, culture, and relationships required for sustainable philanthropic growth. The successful candidate will be a leader who has the strategic range, operational discipline, emotional intelligence, and organizational perspective to contribute well beyond fundraising. As ESP grows, this person will be expected to expand their enterprise leadership capacity and may be considered for broader organizational leadership opportunities over time based on performance, readiness, and the organization’s future needs. #J-18808-Ljbffr ESP
