Senior Vice President, Development Jobs in New York, New York, USA at Association of Fundraising Professionals
Location: New York
SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT, DEVELOPMENT | NATIONAL MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS SOCIETY
LOCATION FLEXIBLE – Candidate should be based in a metropolitan area with access to a major airport.
Several puzzle pieces have fallen into place that are bringing us closer to a world free of multiple sclerosis. The National Multiple Sclerosis Society advances health equity by dispelling misconceptions about who gets MS, engaging underrepresented groups, providing MS information in culturally accessible and plain language (including in Spanish), developing and expanding MS specialty care, and more, thereby accelerating diagnosis and the start of disease modifying therapy.
Amid this environment of organizational excellence, scientific and social progress, and forward-looking investment, the National MS Society seeks candidates for the newly created position of Senior Vice President, Development (SVP). Reporting to the Chief Development Officer, the SVP oversees a team responsible for the Society’s frontline revenue generation inclusive of general philanthropy/individual giving, institutional giving, prospect research, donor relations, and related strategic counsel on an organization-wide scale.
The SVP will contribute to preparation of the Society’s strategic plans and monitor and ensure progress while driving the ongoing evolution and optimization of general philanthropy/individual giving and institutional giving and leading a staff of more than 46 positions.
While the National MS Society will consider a broad range of backgrounds, the ideal candidate will have the following qualifications/experience:
Demonstrated commitment to the mission and values of the National MS Society.
Twelve or more years of progressive fundraising, corporate communications, and organizational development experience, with at least five years in senior management.
Successful track record of identifying, cultivating, soliciting, and stewarding major gifts from individual and institutional donors.
Experience in an organization with geographically dispersed operations.
Strong business acumen including financial analysis and strategic and operational planning.
Superior written and verbal communication skills.
Ability to direct and motivate staff and volunteers.
Experience with constituent relationship management (Salesforce experience a plus).
Inclusion, Diversity, Equity & Accessibility
The National MS Society mission is we will cure MS while empowering people affected by MS to live their best lives. Our core values of inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility (IDEA) are key to fulfilling this mission.
Why IDEA Matters at the National MS Society
Healthcare quality and availability varies widely in the United States. Many systemically disadvantaged groups cannot access the care they need. As a national health organization, speaking out and taking action about this is not just a choice. It is our responsibility.
