About the Role
Organization is seeking a dynamic and experienced fundraising professional to lead and expand our strategic partnerships and development efforts. As Americans continue to struggle to achieve economic security and prosperity, this is a pivotal time for the country and Organization, which is at the forefront of fighting for all Americans rather than just the already wealthy and well-connected. That requires a financial system that supports the real productive economy and creates broad-based wealth, rather than extracting wealth from those who already have too little. With a uniquely qualified staff of subject matter experts, Organization advocates for that economy primarily by being a counterweight to the financial industry in the policymaking process across Washington, from the White House and Congress to the regulatory agencies and the media. We bring Americans’ voices and interests to the halls of power, forcing those in power to address Main Street interests.
This is an exciting and rare opportunity to play a key role in building an economy that makes the American Dream available to all Americans again, advances economic, social, and racial justice, and restores transparency, oversight, and accountability in the financial system. This work impacts every American because it impacts everyone who rents an apartment, has a home, a job, a bank savings or checking account, a credit or debit card, a financial app, a mortgage or student loan, a loan of any type, or uses any financial product or service.
As Director of Strategic Partnerships and Development, you will shape and execute a comprehensive fundraising strategy to grow and diversify our base of supporters. You will work closely with the President & CEO, the Board of Directors, and a passionate team of experts to drive Organization’ mission forward. This position will ensure that the organization has the resources to continue fighting for an economy that is full of opportunity, serves the needs of Main Street Americans, small businesses, and community banks, and rewards Americans with the security and prosperity they deserve.
