Offres d'emploi : cdo

Everytown for Gun Safety is seeking a strategic, experienced Chief Development Officer (CDO) to build on a track record of fundraising success and take the program to the next level. The CDO will be responsible for building a unified, strategic development program and ensuring Everytown's success for decades to come.

The CDO will inherit a strong foundation mission-driven staff, loyal donors, effective fundraising consultants, and a powerful brand and will be charged with building the systems, structure, and team needed to grow the organization's fundraising in its next chapter. The CDO will unify two fundraising functions (major donor and grassroots fundraising) that have historically operated independently, establishing a rigorous prospecting and pipeline development infrastructure, and creating a culture of accountability, collaboration, and strategic ambition across the development program.

The CDO will report directly to and partner with President John Feinblatt and collaborate closely with fellow members of the senior leadership team. This role is both strategic and hands-on: the CDO will set enterprise-wide fundraising strategy and grow and manage a portfolio of top-tier donor relationships.

The ideal candidate is a proven senior fundraiser who thrives in high-level donor relationships, brings the strategic vision and management experience to build a best-in-class development program, and has the leadership presence to be a credible partner to the President and a trusted voice at the senior leadership table.

Core Responsibilities:

• Strategic Leadership & Revenue Growth
• Major Donor Fundraising & Relationship Management
• Digital Fundraising
• Pipeline Development & Donor Lifecycle
• Team Leadership & Management
• Cross-Departmental Engagement & Collaboration
• Operations, Systems & Infrastructure

Qualifications:

• Minimum of 15 years of progressive experience in fundraising, with at least five years in a senior leadership role overseeing a multi-channel development program
• Experience in political fundraising, advocacy organizations, or issue-based campaigns
• Familiarity with fundraising for organizations that operate across multiple entities (501(c)(3), 501(c)(4), 527s, etc.)
• A proven track record of directly soliciting and closing major gifts at the six- and seven-figure level
• Experience with digital fundraising strategies and how they integrate with relationship-based giving programs
• Demonstrated success building and managing high-performing teams, including external fundraising consultants, with duties including hiring, developing, and holding talent accountable
• Experience overseeing diverse revenue portfolios including major gifts, institutional/foundation giving, mid-level programs, and planned giving
• Strong strategic planning skills with the ability to develop and execute multi-year fundraising plans tied to organizational priorities
• Experience building fundraising infrastructure, including prospect research systems, donor lifecycle frameworks, pipeline management, and performance reporting
• Exceptional interpersonal skills and presence, with credibility and comfort engaging board members, C-suite executives, and high-net-worth individuals
• Experience working closely with a CEO or President on donor strategy and relationship management
• Strong operational acumen, including budget management, vendor oversight, and cross-departmental coordination
• Deep commitment to Everytown's mission of ending gun violence

The salary range for this position is $350,000 to $400,000 annually. Everytown offers a generous package including medical, vision, and dental insurance, paid time off, 401K Match, Education Assistance, and more.

This role is based in New York City with a regular in-office presence required. The CDO will work closely with the President and senior leadership team, and being present in the office is essential for the informal relationship building, real-time decision making, and donor engagement that this role requires.
