Job Description

VP of Philanthropy

Scholars of Finance

• Be a member of the Executive Team of this organization, build our culture, and steer us toward achieving our mission to transform finance. • Set the vision, goals, and operating cadence for individual fundraising and volunteer engagement, aligned to strategy, revenue, and program outcomes. • Own the number — the pipeline, the forecast, and the path to it — steering fundraising and volunteer engagement efforts day to day across our organization. • Build and run the fundraising operating system (KPIs, dashboards, meeting rhythms, pipeline reviews) that gives leadership a clear view of performance and projections. • Manage budget and resourcing, anticipating seasonal shifts in donor activity and adjusting plans accordingly. • Take on and coach two direct reports, one fundraiser and one revenue operations manager, and strengthen their performance and output. • Build, coach, and develop a high-performing fundraising team that multiplies our collective velocity rather than carrying it alone. • Establish the systems, cadence, and accountability that enable individual giving and engagement to grow nonlinearly as the team expands. • Build a culture of trust, ownership, and continuous improvement among the people you lead — across both fundraisers and operations team members. • Work closely with Partnership, Events and Marketing team members to ensure a strong donor and volunteer experience, and establish clear unified forecasting. • Personally identify, cultivate, solicit, and steward a portfolio of HNW and UHNW donors, building authentic relationships that inspire significant, sustained support.

Job Requirements

  • 8+ years of relevant experience in nonprofit fundraising, major gifts, or philanthropy linked to finance, education, leadership development, or mission-driven organizations.
  • 3+ years building, managing, and developing high-performing teams across multiple workstreams and timelines.
  • Evidence of sourcing, closing, and stewarding major gifts and ownership of a significant relationship portfolio — and the appetite to build the function that scales it.
  • Proven experience building systems, teams, processes, stewarding hundreds of relationships of various types (e.g., donating, volunteering, advising)
  • Ownership and execution in fast-moving, deadline-driven, high-empowerment environments — you create structure and don't wait to be handed a playbook.
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication. You write with precision and speed and serve as a credible, compelling face of the organization with affluent leaders.
  • Proven ability to set and execute a fundraising or revenue strategy with clear goals, data-driven decisions, and measurable outcomes.
  • Proven comfort with working on a fully-remote team, and the ability to travel up to 10-20% of the time for off-sites and donor meetings.

Benefits

  • 401(k) match (100% match up to 5% of the base salary)
  • Generous health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Unlimited PTO; all federal holidays off
  • Quarterly team offsites, expenses fully paid when in-person
  • High-growth culture to accelerate your professional development
  • A unique company ensuring all team members thrive holistically
