Vice President of Development and Alumni Engagement

Wake Forest University invites inquiries, nominations, and
applications for its next Vice President, University Development
and Alumni Engagement (VP).

Wake Forest is dedicated to educating the whole person and
upholding the promise of its motto, Pro Humanitate — for
humanity. The University is a distinctive institution, combining
exceptional graduate and professional schools, a rigorous academic
liberal arts core for undergraduates and innovative research
programs for its lively academic community of over 2,000 faculty,
nearly 2,000 staff and more than 8,000 students. Wake Forest is
committed to educating students to be bold thinkers who can address
the most challenging problems of today's world. This commitment is
made manifest through close student-faculty engagement paired with
the breadth and resources of a nationally prominent research
university.

The historic Wake Will Lead campaign, which concluded in
2020, raised over $1 billion from nearly 60,000 Wake Forest
families and friends. Wake Forest is now preparing for its
bicentennial in 2034 — the beginning of an exciting journey for the
University and an opportunity to reaffirm its values and
priorities, establishing an ambitious course for Wake Forest's
third century. Within this context, the VP will join the University
to build on the Advancement Division's success.

Wake Forest seeks an innovative, collaborative, and experienced
leader to work with Senior Vice President Mark Petersen and the
leadership team to guide Wake Forest University into its next
comprehensive campaign. The campaign is projected to have an
ambitious goal, requiring the next VP to optimize the current
fundraising operation, prepare for growth, build capacity,
capitalize on the strength of the current staff, and maintain
strong internal and external focus.

The incoming VP will be a forward-thinking, engaging, and
transparent leader, ready to provide strategic vision and oversight
to the University's comprehensive development program with the goal
of inspiring new levels of engagement, commitment, and
philanthropic support from the global Wake Forest community. In
addition, the VP will possess superior communication skills, strong
listening skills, and the ability to make connections across the
University in order to promote collaboration and the sharing of
information. Bringing a commitment to community and service, the VP
will help translate the work of University Advancement toward Wake
Forest's motto of Pro Humanitate, improving the greater
societal good.

All applications, nominations, and inquiries are invited.
Applications should include, as separate documents, a CV or resume
and a letter of interest addressing the themes in the leadership
