The Associate Vice President, Philanthropy (AVP) is responsible for managing a dynamic relationship portfolio of City of Hope's most financially capable donors and prospective donors, with an emphasis on individuals who could make a principal gift. The position serves as both a fundraising professional/calling officer, as well as a relationship connector/builder among Office of Philanthropy leaders, administrative and faculty leaders and high-capacity donors and prospects.
The AVP will develop complex relationship-deepening solicitation and stewardship plans customized to each prospect. The AVP works collaboratively across all business functions within the Office of Philanthropy to identify prospective donors, develop qualification, cultivation, and solicitation strategies, and ultimately deliver upon those strategies in a highly effective manner. The AVP supervises, mentors and coaches the frontline fundraising teams, faculty partnership officers, and administrative support staff.
The individual must possess a sophisticated customer-service orientation; an ability to understand and communicate complex scientific ideas and concepts; and a natural orientation toward problem solving, collaboration, intellectual curiosity, and accountability. The AVP will hold ultimate responsibility of ensuring proposals, stewardship reports, and communication materials (electronic and hard version) reflect the highest level of excellence and personalization for the donor.
This position represents the Office of Philanthropy internally at various levels with faculty and administration and may, as needed, serve as the primary or secondary point of contact with the entity president and other leaders. The AVP will participate with other Office of Philanthropy colleagues in strategy review sessions to ensure an optimally effective donor experience. Additionally, the AVP is responsible for remaining current on key funding priorities and initiatives to ensure optimal philanthropic support is matched to donor interest.
The AVP must be able to craft, review, and deliver highly effective position papers, briefings, talking points, letters, stewardship pieces and proposals. The position will effectively triage and/or manage donor relationships as appropriate and support the success of colleagues toward meeting shared goals for the Office of Philanthropy.
