The Director of Philanthropy will be responsible for strategically developing and managing a robust individual gifts program with a focus on donors with the capacity to give $10,000 and above in Delaware County. This position will be responsible for identifying, cultivating, stewarding and asking gift prospects, with the goal to raise new revenue to support specific initiatives.
The Director of Philanthropy will work closely with the President and Board of Directors, Vice-President, Director of Corporate Engagement and the Director of Collective Impact, and other team members, as many major gift prospects overlap with other working areas.
We are looking for a collaborative team player at the United Way of Delaware County – working closely with leadership to identify key prospects for additional individual engagement. The ability to quickly build trusting relationships with the internal team and the Delaware community is a must. Because the team is small, this person must be nimble and shift with changing priorities.
This position will create a focus on leadership and major gifts by developing a portfolio of current and prospective donors and foundations with identified revenue and growth goals. Familiarity with “moves management” is helpful.
Salary: $71,000 to $80,000 per year
