  • Lead special events and fundraising initiatives to engage the school community (including Give2Visi Giving Day)
  • Manage the implementation of Visitation Annual Fund solicitation appeals
    • Coordinate with the communications office and manage outside annual fund specialists (BCG and GiveCampus)
  • Cultivate and maintain relationships with donors, prospects, and volunteers
    • Assist with prospect research
  • Coordinate donor acknowledgment, recognition, and stewardship programs, with particular focus on leadership and first-time gifts
  • Manage volunteer leaders (including Visitation Annual Fund parent volunteers)
    • Provide prospect identification tools and reports to support solicitation efforts
    • Coordinate volunteer thank you cards for donors
  • Prepare monthly and quarterly reports and analyses of program results (including the tracking and status of individual major gifts) for the Director of Advancement
  • Implement best practices in gift processing, data management, and donor relations
  • Support the Database Manager with gift entry and acknowledgement to ensure timely recognition of gifts
  • Coordinate the Reunion giving program
  • Perform other duties as assigned

Job Requirements:

  • Bachelor’s degree
  • 3-5 years in a development-related role in an educational environment or a related field
    • Direct experience supporting an annual campaign
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office (particularly Excel) and Google Workspace tools and strong knowledge of Raiser’s Edge
  • Direct experience managing volunteers, including recruitment, training, and supervision
  • Availability and willingness to work occasionally outside the normal schedule, including early mornings, evenings, and weekends to accommodate donor and volunteer meetings and events
  • Experience in Catholic or independent schools preferred
  • Experience in digital design media (Photoshop/Canva/InDesign/Illustrator) a plus

Physical Requirements:

  • Ability to move around campus and into several non-ADA compliant buildings

The salary range is $75,000-$80,000 annually, commensurate with experience.
