Washington, United States Smithsonian Institution Full time

Come join a team of dedicated staff at an exceptional time in the Smithsonian’s history as we prepare for the Smithsonian Campaign for Our Shared Future. This ambitious fundraising campaign’s public phase will run from 2024 to 2026, culminating with the nation’s 250th anniversary. It will expand the Smithsonian’s reach and impact, empowering the institution to find solutions to today’s most pressing challenges. The Smithsonian is also planning two exciting new museums. The National Museum of the American Latino and the Smithsonian American Women's History Museum share the experiences and perspectives of Latinos and women across history and deepen our shared understanding of what it means to be an American. The Smithsonian has built a model fundraising organization, driven by talented staff across our many museums, research centers and cultural centers. This position offers exciting opportunities for the successful candidate to make a significant impact on the future of the Smithsonian. There is no better time to join this amazing Institution.

Key Responsibilities
The Smithsonian American Art Museum (SAAM)—the oldest and largest of Smithsonian art museums—seeks a creative and entrepreneurial individual to create scalable growth for the Annual Fund and Director’s Circle membership program. The incumbent will join a collegial and successful Development team that is responsible for raising support for core museum priorities. The incumbent must be able to plan, execute, and manage an annual fund strategy in coordination with counterparts in External Affairs and Digital Strategies and be familiar with best practices in philanthropic messaging and digital communications. This position is also responsible for managing an ambitious membership program to increase acquisition, improve renewal rates, implement innovative donor stewardship, and increase overall membership revenue. The Annual Giving Manager will manage a portfolio of prospects and conduct visits to recruit new members and develop a robust pipeline for SAAM’s major donor and planned giving programs. Event and programmatic experience is vital to the success of both annual giving and membership. Responsibilities include preparing donor communications including solicitations, renewals, and acknowledgments; tracking and reporting on membership; managing direct mail appeals; creating compelling marketing materials; and coordinating membership events.

Skills, Knowledge, and Expertise
Minimum of three years of relevant experience, including managing a membership and annual fund program, is desired. Strong written and verbal communication skills; the ability to manage multiple deadlines; and superior organization skills are essential to success. Experience at a cultural organization is preferred.
