New York, New York, United States Brennan center for justice Full time

The Brennan Center for Justice at NYU School of Law is a
nonpartisan law and policy institute that seeks to improve the
systems of democracy and justice in the United States. We work to
hold our political institutions and laws accountable to the
American ideals of democracy and equal justice for all. Among our
core priorities, we fight to protect voting rights, end mass
incarceration, strengthen checks and balances, and preserve
constitutional protection in the fight against terrorism. Part
think tank, part advocacy group, part cutting-edge communications
hub, we start with rigorous research. We craft innovative policies.
And we fight for them — in Congress and the states, the courts, and
in the court of public opinion.

Position Overview

The Associate Director, Philanthropic Partnerships will serve as a
fundraising leader for the Brennan Center and its Development team,
which is charged with securing approximately $40 million annually
from a diverse base of individual and institutional
supporters.

As our first-ever position focused principally on raising funds
from new donors, the Associate Director will be one of the Center's
lead prospecting strategist and a central player in
cross-organization efforts to grow annual fundraising, with
particular focus on major giving from individuals and
families.

One major responsibility will be to significantly enhance and
expand the Center's partnership and networking opportunities by
ensuring robust presence in key donor communities and organizing
spaces. The role also will work collaboratively across the team and
organization to spearhead special initiatives and events to attract
and strengthen relations with prospective funders, while also
personally managing a portfolio of donors with high networking
potential.

The Associate Director will directly report to the Vice President,
Development and work under the guidance of the Managing Director,
Development (who spearheads major donor giving). The position will
regularly partner with and advise organizational and program
leadership, including the Center's President and CEO, and will
collaborate regularly with an 18-person Development team that
includes major gifts fundraisers and support staff.

Note: Brennan Center employees adhere to a
hybrid schedule that is subject to change, with employees currently
required to work in the office a minimum of three days per week, on
Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. While most employees follow this
in-person schedule, there may be some positions that require
additional in-office days. This position is based at our
headquarters in New York City. It will require occasional
travel.

Key Responsibilities:
Grow fundraising opportunities by developing and leading
comprehensive efforts to identify and engage donors who do not
currently support the Center

Implement tailored strategies to maximize exposure to potential
supporters, including by ensuring the Center's robust participation
and partnership with key philanthropic communities and networking
spaces

Manage, cultivate, and steward a portfolio of donor networks and
philanthropic influencers often in collaboration with
organizational leadership, program experts, and other fundraising
staff

Partner with Development teams to conceive, design, and
implement special initiatives and events to attract new support,
including efforts to further diversify our funding
base

Prepare and advise organizational leadership and staff before
donor meetings, including by overseeing and producing written
meeting prep

Secure funding from and steward a small portfolio (around
of high-value funding prospects while identifying prospects for
other fundraising staff to cultivate

Provide strategic and operational guidance to strengthen
prospecting and networking efforts led by the major, mid-level, and
institutional giving teams

Work proactively with others to create tailored fundraising
opportunities and campaigns to be leveraged across Development
channels (e.g., interviewing program staff to draft an initial case
for support for a new project area)

Draft and edit a variety of compelling fundraising
materials

Supervise support staff and interns in the production of
research and other materials

Guide the development of database systems and infrastructure to
support successful prospect management

on behalf of public interest causes

Demonstrated skill and experience in devising and applying
prospecting strategies to secure funding from new donors

Proven competence in absorbing complex legal and policy issues
and translating them into persuasive, donor-friendly communications
– both orally and in writing

Awareness of the U.S. philanthropic sector; knowledge of and
experience with funders who focus on democracy and justice or
related issues is a plus

Excellent writing/editing skills and ability to tailor products
to fit donor interest
