Milwaukee, United States Ozaukee Washington Land Trust Full time

**Summary of Organization**

Since 1992, Ozaukee Washington Land Trust (OWLT) has been the region’s driving force in land preservation and protection. OWLT owns and actively manages 36 nature preserves in Ozaukee and Washington counties, conserving over 7,000 acres in the Milwaukee River, Menomonee River, and Lake Michigan watersheds. The River Revitalization Foundation (RRF) was founded in 1994 by the Kiwanis Club of Milwaukee and the Rotary Club of Milwaukee. With unique opportunities within the urban city, RRF has protected 821 acres, including the establishment of the Milwaukee River Greenway and 5 miles of riverfront trail connections along the Milwaukee River.

In 2022, the Boards of Directors and staff of OWLT and RRF began exploring a closer partnership. The result of this exploration was positive with both Boards voting to formally move towards merger. Today, OWLT and RRF are operating under a joint management agreement planning to complete a formal merger on July 1, 2024. The new board representing both organizations will become active on July 1, 2024. Staff are already integrating programs and operations with formal strategic planning and a new branding process to commence after the merger is finalized.

OWLT/RRF is committed to honoring diverse experiences, perspectives, and unique identities while fostering work environments that are inclusive, equitable, and welcoming. The Land Trust does not discriminate on the basis of age, gender, race, national origin, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, or disability in any of its policies or programs.

**Opportunities of the Role**

This is a unique opportunity for a seasoned Development Director to design and lead the integration of two fundraising programs as the merger process of two organizations is finalized. With a regional, watershed approach, the Development Director will drive the fundraising strategy of the rebranded land trust (yet-to-be named) with an expectation of attracting significant new philanthropic support and government grants. Aligned in mission, each organization has a distinct individual donor base and already enjoys an overlap in foundation giving and corporate sponsorships.

Positioned in strength and stability, the organizations hold more than $2 million in board designated or unrestricted cash/cash equivalents and have secured over $3 million in pledged/awarded, restricted support for the next 2.5 fiscal years. OWLT doubled their donors from 2021 to 2022 (from 500 to 1,000) creating an opportunity to focus on donor stewardship while continuing to build the donor base.

The Development Director will join a newly formulated senior leadership team with the opportunity and expectation of creating and contributing to a new work culture that honors the strengths of each organization as well as the diverse communities and constituencies served by each.

**Position Description**

The Director will design, direct, and lead a new fundraising program, integrating programs from each organization including the annual fund, foundation and corporate giving, special events, the creation of formal major gifts and planned giving programs, and creation of a donor stewardship program. The Director will staff a volunteer Development Committee whose role is to partner with staff on fundraising activities with a focus on identification, qualification, cultivation, and stewardship of donors.

The Development Director reports to the Executive Director and supervises the Grants Administrator and Administrative Associate (both new roles to be filled).

**Leadership and Management (35% time)**
