Los Angeles, California, United States Hammer Museum Full time

The Hammer Museum at UCLA believes diversity, equity,
accessibility, and inclusion are integral to fulfilling our mission
to illuminate lives and build a more just work through art and
ideas. We actively see out different perspectives to broaden and
enrich our understanding of the world. We believe this inspires
thoughtful and provocative exhibitions and programs that serve the
vibrant and varied communities that make up the city of Los
Angeles. The Hammer understands that art not only has the power to
transport us through aesthetic experience but can also provide
significant insight into some of the most pressing cultural,
political, and social questions of our time. We share the unique
and invaluable perspectives that artists have on the world around
us.

Reporting to the Chief Development Officer, the incumbent will
work closely with senior leaders of the Development team to manage
overall prospect development across multiple fundraising areas,
including annual fundraising, campaign, and special projects to
advance ambitious goals. The incumbent will develop a productive
prospect pipeline, track progress on donor fundraising strategies,
and develop and maintain status reports for the Director and Board
members. This role will also lead overall stewardship efforts to
maximize philanthropic support. The incumbent will develop
individual stewardship plans, draft impact reports, oversee
acknowledgement process, establish standardized guidelines for
credit lines and other donor recognition, maintain donor lists, and
oversee stewardship events. This position will also be responsible
for drafting pledge agreements and act as a liaison with other
departments (communications, curatorial, operations, etc.) as their
activities relate to fundraising. The Prospect and Stewardship
Manager maintains a sophisticated and nuanced understanding of
donors' individual interests, enthusiasms, connections, and
relationships with the Hammer, in order to advance successful
engagement, cultivation, and stewardship strategies across the
institution. The incumbent's efforts directly support the frontline

Director, Donor Engagement; Deputy Director, External Affairs and

in major gift and principal gift support from individual donors
