The Associate Director of Philanthropy (ADOP) is responsible for building and managing a portfolio of 75-100 qualified donors with the capacity to give more than $100,000, once the portfolio is developed. These individuals will be identified through a discovery process and sourced from an existing list of prospects. You will build strong relationships between those donors and TNC and act as the primary relationship manager for their engagement with TNC.

You will be responsible requesting gifts directly from individuals in portfolio to achieve individual fundraising goals of $135,000 in new revenue the first year and incrementally increasing to $1,500,000 annually by year 4. In this role, you will discuss sensitive financial information with donors, listen for opportunities for gifts of assets or other non‐cash gifts, such as real estate, and conduct planned giving conversations, as appropriate.

You will also use TNC’s donor database, make annual giving projections for each donor you manage, understand budgets, and develop proposals.
The ADOP reports to the Director of Philanthropy and works closely with the State Director, the Board of Trustees, the philanthropy team and program leaders to plan, implement, and coordinate effective annual and multi‐year strategies to generate support for the critical conservation priorities of TNC, primarily from individuals, but also including private foundations and corporations.
