POSITION TITLE: Development Manager 

POSTING DATE: September 3, 2024

DATE OF FIRST APPLICATION REVIEW: September 27, 2024

LOCATION: Yellow Springs, Ohio

POSITION REPORTS TO: Executive Director

FLSA STATUS: Full-time, exempt

STARTING SALARY RANGE: $60-70K commensurate with experience


ORGANIZATION SUMMARY:

Glen Helen is the legacy of Hugh Taylor Birch, who, in 1929, donated a wooded valley to Antioch College in memory of his daughter, Helen, with the hope that it would be forever preserved. Throughout our history, Glen Helen has played a lead role in shaping the ecological literacy of our visitors, our community, and the region. It is home to the first residential environmental learning facility in the Midwest and Ohio’s original facility for education and rehabilitation of birds of prey. Within our borders, we shelter a National Natural Landmark, a National Environmental Education Study Area, and nearly two miles of the State and National Scenic Little Miami River. As a private nature preserve, Glen Helen depends on the support of individuals to maintain the preserve and its exciting and varied programs.


The Glen Helen Association acquired the preserve in 2020 and, as a start-up organization, assumed all responsibilities for funding its ongoing operations. The Association recently concluded a $4.25M campaign to finance the purchase, restart programs shuttered during the pandemic, and conduct urgent maintenance to facilities and trails. 


The Glen Helen Association now seeks an experienced development professional to carry out an effective fundraising apparatus to support the ongoing programs, projects, and activities, and new initiatives of the Glen. The ideal candidate will have compelling development experience, a commitment to nature and environmental education, and a spirit that will inspire and grow a strong philanthropic community for Glen Helen. 


KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

●      Work collaboratively to implement and oversee the Glen Helen development plan; implement specific fundraising campaigns and initiatives within the broader development plan

●      Manage a portfolio of active and prospective donors, and execute cultivation and solicitation strategies as directed by the Executive Director

●      Make direct solicitations with a focus on major gifts and planned gifts

●      With support from Executive Director and program leaders, develop grant proposals, including communications with grantmakers, proposal writing, and reporting

●      Work collaboratively across all Glen Helen programs and teams; empower, mentor, and advance staff, board, and Development Committee volunteer fundraising

●      With Executive Director, develop accurate revenue projections (multi-year, annual, and monthly) with achievable stretch goals

●      Manage development-related expenses

●      Assist with donor database management and tracking of donations and pledges: acknowledge gifts in accordance with best practice and legal requirements; track and report on the status of solicitations, assignments, and results

●      Draft and execute specific donor communications and stewardship plans

●      Play a key role in implementing the annual fund campaign; may manage specific components of the campaign

●      Represent Glen Helen at public and private events

●      Additional duties and responsibilities as agreed upon


QUALIFICATIONS:

●      Excellent verbal and written communication skills and ability to communicate effectively to different audiences, especially with high net worth donors

●      Passion for Glen Helen’s mission and our conservation education work

●      Specific expertise in major gifts fundraising, including major donor prospecting, with demonstrated success in closing gift solicitations at the five-plus figure level

●      Proven, exceptional ability to engage others in fundraising

●      Self-motivated to manage complex systems and projects with thoroughness, accuracy, timeliness, and professionalism

●      Ability to troubleshoot challenges with patience and creativity
