大额捐赠与发展专员
Major Gifts & Development Associate
自成立以来，Parity Homes 已筹集超过 1500 万美元——几乎完全由我们的首席执行官通过从零开始建立与主要捐赠者、基金会和社区投资者的关系实现。我们正在寻找一位能够将我们已有的成果专业化和系统化的人，以便我们在不依赖某一个人的情况下实现规模化增长。
我们正在寻找一名主要捐赠与发展的专员，要求具备雄心、动力和真实的社交本能。这个人会因追求目标而充满能量——识别潜在捐赠者、打开门路、建立真实的关系，并最终促成大额承诺的达成。写作是这个职位的重要部分，但只是手段而非目的。最终目标是从捐赠者（捐赠金额在 200 万至 500 万美元之间）那里获得变革性的资金。
你将与我们的 CEO 密切合作，从研究到成交，推动主要捐赠者的培育。你需要战略性思考，主动行动，并对整个潜在客户流程负责。你写作是为了让人们投资于社区——而不是因为你喜欢排版报告。
你将负责：
- 在 CEO 参与之前，研究并分析主要捐赠者、基金会和会议参与者，确保每次会议都最大化价值。
- 负责后续跟进。以 CEO 的身份起草沟通邮件、感谢信和培育性沟通内容，确保语气、时机和下一步行动正确。
- 推动捐赠者通过培育流程——从初次接触、安排会议到资金承诺。
- 识别并跟踪与 Parity 使命一致的资助机会，并全程管理提交日历。
- 撰写有说服力的资助申请、初步咨询信、捐赠者报告和大额捐赠案例陈述。
- 为 CEO 的演讲活动和会议准备材料，突出资助机会。
- 维护和更新捐赠者 CRM 系统，确保流程始终最新且可操作。
- 主动提出新的资助策略和潜在捐赠者想法——你不会等待别人告诉你该去哪里寻找。
要求：
- 在商业拓展、非营利发展、大额捐赠或面向捐赠者的筹款岗位上有经验——我们更看重你的业绩记录而非头衔。
- 有成功撰写资助申请或大额捐赠沟通内容并获得资金的经验。
- 熟悉捐赠者培育策略和大额捐赠流程。
- 能够作为 CEO 或高级领导的延伸进行工作——以他们的口吻撰写内容，代表他们行事。

Since our founding, Parity Homes has raised over $15 million — driven almost entirely by our CEO, who has built relationships with major donors, foundations, and community investors from the ground up. We are looking for someone to professionalize and systematize what we’ve built so we can grow in scale without that growth depending on one person.
We are looking for a Major Gifts & Development Associate who brings ambition, drive, and genuine relationship instincts to this work. Someone who is energized by the pursuit — identifying prospects, opening doors, building authentic relationships, and seeing major commitments through to close. Writing is a key part of this role, but it is a means to an end. The end is securing transformational funding from donors giving at the $2M–$5M level.
You will work closely with our CEO to drive major donor cultivation from research through close. You will think strategically, act proactively, and take ownership of the pipeline. You write because it moves people to invest in communities — not because you love formatting reports.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
- Research and profile major donors, foundations, and conference attendees in advance of CEO engagements — so every meeting is maximized.
- Own the follow-up. Draft outreach emails, thank-you notes, and cultivation communications as the CEO, ensuring the right tone, timing, and next step.
- Move donors through the cultivation pipeline — from initial contact to scheduled meeting to funded commitment.
- Identify and track grant opportunities aligned with Parity’s mission and manage submission calendars end-to-end.
- Write compelling grant proposals, letters of inquiry, donor reports, and major gift case statements.
- Prepare the CEO for speaking engagements and conferences by building briefing materials that surface funding opportunities.
- Maintain and update the donor CRM, ensuring the pipeline is always current and actionable.
- Proactively surface new funding strategies and prospect ideas — you don’t wait to be told where to look.
Requirements
- Experience in business development, nonprofit development, major gifts, or a donor-facing fundraising role — we care more about your track record than your title.
- Demonstrated success writing grant proposals or major donor communications that resulted in funding.
- Familiarity with donor cultivation strategy and the major gifts cycle.
- Comfort operating as an extension of a CEO or senior leader — drafting in their voice, representing their brand, and owning the follow-through.
- Experience working in a startup, early-stage organization, or resource-constrained environment is a genuine plus.
- CRM experience (any platform) is helpful but not required.
Who You Are
- You are scrappy and resourceful. You figure things out. You don’t wait for a system to exist, you build one.
- You are relationship-oriented. You understand that major donors are people, not line items, and you know how to cultivate trust over time.
- You are a strategic thinker. You don’t just execute tasks — you see the board and know which moves matter.
- You are an excellent writer. Your words are clear, compelling, and calibrated to the reader — whether that’s a foundation program officer or a high-net-worth individual.
- You are driven by outcomes. You want to land big asks and you measure your own success by impact, not activity.
- You are mission-aligned. You care about equitable development, community ownership, and the kind of work Parity is doing — and that comes through in how you represent the organization.
- You are comfortable working independently in a remote, startup environment with limited hand-holding and high expectations.
- You are energized by building something — you don’t need a fully developed infrastructure around you to do your best work.
- You are drawn to organizations doing real, ground-level work and you want to be close to the mission, not at a remove from it.
- You see writing as one of many tools in your repertoire — and the goal is always to move people toward meaningful investment.
Benefits
- Fully remote, global
- $1,500 - $1,800 monthly commensurate with experience
- Generous PTO
