Director of Major Gifts

3 weeks ago

New York, New York, United States The Nightingale-Bamford School Full time
Aspen Leadership Group is proud to partner with The
Nightingale-Bamford School in the search for a Director of Major
Gifts.

The Director of Major Gifts will report to the Director of
Institutional Advancement and work alongside school leadership as
well as colleagues in annual giving, alumni relations, and
advancement services to cultivate and maintain relationships with
prospective and current donors to achieve long-term engagement and
increased financial support of Nightingale. As the point person for
major gift fundraising, the Director will spend much of their
workday outside of the office, meeting with parents, alumnae, and
other constituents. They will spearhead highly effective
prospective donor pipeline management. They will also serve as a
strategic partner to the Director of Institutional Advancement,
particularly in the area of campaign project management.

The successful candidate will be an energetic and seasoned
fundraiser and natural relationship builder, whose experience in
raising major gifts will help advance the school's mission and
strengthen the culture of philanthropy at Nightingale. The Director
of Major Gifts must be comfortable operating in New York City's
business and philanthropic communities. A background in major gift
fundraising and a successful track record of soliciting and closing
six-figure and higher gifts is required, along with exceptional
communication skills. The Director will maintain a portfolio of at
least 100 donors and prospective donors with the capacity to give
at the six-figure level and above. The Director will be expected to
be available to travel outside the New York City area and attend
evening and weekend meetings and events when necessary. First and
foremost, the Director will be a driven frontline fundraiser and
successful relationship builder. The Director will also have a mind
for details and organization, such that they can be an effective
strategic partner while also driving the work forward. Candidates
with both skill sets are preferred.

Founded by two bold, visionary educators in 1920, The
Nightingale-Bamford School's mission is to inspire girls to go
beyond barriers. Tied to this mission is a broader vision of
students who are joyful learners who have the intellectual depth
and courage to be critical thinkers, compassionate citizens, and
agents of their own lives. Nightingale educates girls' minds and
hearts and, in so doing, infuses their lives with meaningful
relationships, teaching them to value difference as a means of
growth, and empowering them to question the status quo with
confidence, empathy, resilience, and reason. Nightingale's
commitment to social justice and anti-racism requires that all
community members engage actively and thoughtfully in work around
diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Nightingale enters its second century in full embrace of the
philosophy established by its founders. As Miss Nightingale and
Miss Bamford believed, girls' schools educate girls best, and a
purposeful curriculum is a matter of both mind and heart. At
Nightingale, each girl can expect an education that prepares them
for success. Led by a fully engaged and student-focused faculty and
administration, they will be ready for whatever the world presents
to them. From the moment each girl enters the blue doors, they are
acknowledged, understood, and valued.

Generations of Nightingale alumnae have led lives of meaning, a
testament to the power of its founders' vision. Ensuring that the
same opportunities exist for future generations of students is of
primary importance. Thus, Nightingale is committed to maintaining
wise stewardship of its financial resources, planning now for a
sustainable future, including fostering a philanthropy culture that
supports Nightingale's current program and its vision for the
future.

A bachelor's degree or an equivalent combination of education and
experience and at least three years of experience in a leadership
position directing fundraising efforts for philanthropic or
nonprofit organizations is preferred for this position. The
Nightingale-Bamford School will consider candidates with a broad
range of backgrounds. If you are excited about this role and feel
that you can contribute to Nightingale-Bamford, but your experience
does not exactly align with every qualification listed above, we
encourage you to apply.

All applications must be accompanied by a cover letter and résumé.
Cover letters should be responsive to the mission of The
Nightingale-Bamford School as well as the responsibilities and
qualifications presented in the prospectus.

The salary for this position is $150,000 to $170,000
annually.

The Nightingale-Bamford School is committed to the inclusion of all
qualified candidates. If you require reasonable accommodation in
completing this application, interviewing, or participating in the
selection process, please contact Marianna DiVietro
