DESCRIPTION

Major & Planned Gifts Officer

The Huntington

The Major and Planned Gifts Officer (MPGO) will join The Huntington at a landmark moment for the organization and will play a vital role in the evolution of the major and planned giving programs, as well as in Phase II of the Campaign for the New Huntington, an important initiative to expand the campus on Huntington Avenue and support growth of the endowment. With a robust group of loyal and generous donors, as well as a new list of potential prospects for the team to engage, the MPGO will develop deep and authentic relationships across The Huntington’s vibrant and enthusiastic community. The key focus of the MPGO position will be to collaborate with development colleagues to ensure continued growth and success in the organization’s annual fund effort.

The ideal MPGO candidate is a self-driven, goal oriented, front-line fundraiser responsible for cultivating and soliciting a robust portfolio of major donors. This role conducts prospect identification, cultivation, one-on-one solicitations, stewardship, and direct appeals to support annual operations, capital campaigns, endowment, legacy, and special programs. Reporting to the Director of Development and collaborating with the entire Development Team, this position will work closely with the Director and Chief Development Officer to strategize on individual major giving, bring best practices and industry knowledge to broaden and deepen individual philanthropy, and support the expansion of the planned giving program. Due to the interpersonal nature of this role and interaction with staff across the organization, the majority of this role will require in-person presence in the office and in the Boston community.

To express interest, please submit your cover letter and resume in confidence.
