Director of Development-Business

The Office of Institutional Advancement is seeking an accomplished, responsive, collaborative, and results-oriented fundraiser to join its Advancement team. This team member will be the primary development liaison for one of the College’s academic units, and will identify, cultivate, solicit, and steward alumni and friends of the College as well as corporate, foundation and other college stakeholders. The ability to think and act strategically will be critical to the success of this position.

Reporting to the Associate Vice President for Development, the Director of Development will focus efforts on face-to-face contact with prospects whose philanthropic capacity is $50,000 and more, managing a portfolio of 150 to 200 major donor prospects. It is expected that the Director will average 15 to 20 face-to-face strategic visits, which result in “moves” toward major gifts, and 2 to 4 major commitment solicitations per month. The Director will be strategic to ensure that solicitation “ask” are maximized based on donor capacity and philanthropic interest that is aligned with the College’s needs. The Director of Development will play a pivotal role in the identification and qualification of major donor prospects in preparation for Morehouse’s next capital campaign.
