Education:

Bachelor’s degree preferred, or equivalent experience.

Experience:

Minimum of 7 years professional experience, with at least 1-2 years in a frontline fundraising or sales role.

Strong connection to music and/or the arts required. Musicians are strongly encouraged to apply.

HOW TO APPLY

Interested candidates should submit a cover letter, resume, and salary expectations no later than 9:00pm on Friday, July 26, 2024.

EQUITY + SALARY DISCLOSURE

A new Minnesota law, effective January 1, 2025, will require all job postings to include salary ranges. In preparation, we are proactively updating our postings to comply with this law. Over the coming weeks, you will begin to see salary information on all our job listings.

The salary range for this role is $87k-$102k annually.

We believe in practices that create real equity and pay parity regardless of background or identity and we freely discuss compensation with all qualified candidates the first time we interview them. Saving the salary discussion for the first conversation allows us to fully understand the needs of each candidate and to ensure that qualified candidates, even those who’ve historically been overlooked and/or underpaid, don’t self-select out of the processes based on salary alone, as our experience and research suggest. In addition to those who opt out, because they fear the salary may be out of reach for them, we equally don’t want to miss out on conversations with candidates who are slightly over the range when in some cases the total compensation including factors such as bonuses, flexibility, and better health benefits, etc. may exceed expectations. Finally, as a search firm – we are always looking for top-notch talent to introduce to our clients. Should the salary or any other requirement not be fit, there is often a chance that someone on our team is working on another position you may be a better fit for. If you would like to discuss your qualifications for this role as well as discuss salary and compensation – just give us a call, and we’d be happy to discuss

EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER

The MacPhail Center for Music and kpCompanies provide equal employment opportunities to all employees and applicants without regard to race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, gender identity, and sexual orientation), national origin, age, disability, genetic information, military service, or any other characteristic protected by law. We are dedicated to the principles of fair and inclusive workplaces.

All submissions are received in the strictest confidence.
