Cleveland, United States District Partners Full time

Director of Development – Greater Cleveland Nonprofit


District Partners has been engaged by a growing nonprofit organization based in Cleveland to find a driven and passionate Director of Development. This is a unique opportunity for individuals currently working in development and fundraising roles at larger nonprofits to step into a leadership position and make a real, tangible impact. This organization serves 13 counties in Northeast Ohio to empower and uplift youth who are underserved through community access and enrichment opportunities, helping them overcome adversity and unlock their full potential. Through community-driven support, the organization is dedicated to breaking down barriers for a commonly overlooked population of youth, fostering post traumatic growth and success. The role provides the chance to directly influence the organization’s success, see the immediate impact of dollars raised, and work closely with a board comprised of CEOs, Presidents, and C-Suite leaders from both local and multinational organizations. If you are ready to lead fundraising efforts and grow with a dynamic, mission-driven nonprofit, this is the opportunity for you.


Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Direct Impact: You’ll lead the charge in fundraising efforts, with opportunities to see the direct effect of your work in the lives of youth and the broader Cleveland community.
  • Leadership Opportunity: Work directly with a highly engaged and prestigious board of directors, receiving mentorship and support to take your career to the next level.
  • Strategic Fundraising: Lead and implement a strategic development plan that will sustain the organization’s future, focusing on major gifts, donor relations, grants, and in-kind donations for unique dream experiences.
  • Career Growth: This is an exciting opportunity to step out from larger organizations and take the lead in growing a grass roots organization to it's full potential by developing relationships with individual, corporate, and community prospects while shaping the future of the nonprofit.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Identify and develop new individual, corporate, and community prospects.
  • Cultivate and grow relationships with current supporters and potential donors.
  • Facilitate major gifts and lead all fundraising initiatives, including events and grant proposals.
  • Oversee all donor communications, ensuring engagement and ongoing support.
  • Collaborate closely with the Board of Directors to implement a structured and sustainable fundraising plan.
  • Lead fundraising events and work with committees to deliver successful campaigns.
  • Coordinate in-kind donations for dream experiences and silent auctions.


What We’re Looking For:

  • 3+ years of experience in nonprofit development, fundraising, or advancement (CFRE preferred).
  • A strong relationship builder with a passion for connecting donors to impactful causes.
  • Strategic thinker with a proven track record of leading successful fundraising campaigns.
  • Experience with donor CRM systems, event planning, and grant writing.
  • Ability to work both independently and as part of a small team.
  • Excellent communication skills and a friendly, outgoing personality.


Compensation & Benefits:

  • Competitive salary based on experience.
  • Direct mentorship from a prestigious board of directors.
  • Significant opportunities for career growth and leadership.
