We are seeking an experienced Fundraiser to work under contract with IofCI, join our Development and Sustainability team and, as part of that team, play a pivotal catalytic role in helping IofCI prepare for the next generation of its work.

Work is both office and home-based / virtual depending on where the candidate is based.

PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITIES 

• Work with leadership to revise and refine the fundraising strategy, based on a process of continual learning from our experience; 

• Identify and research funding prospects to support the TBP, build up IofCI’s organizational infrastructure, and help national teams; 

• Develop individual strategies for connecting with, cultivating, and soliciting prospects; 

• Implement  a moves management system to track touches, guide cultivation, and help us move strategically to convert prospects into donors; 

• Support the Trustbuilding Program national teams’ efforts to harness their knowledge and contacts, and to identify, cultivate and solicit new funding sources; 

• Work with the Executive Director, the TBP Manager, the Communications Director, and the Sustainability team to develop attractive, compelling communications that support the development and fundraising strategy of IofC International;

• Work with affiliated national teams to help them develop local fundraising capacity that works in coordination with IofCI;

• Some travel [when allowed by pandemic restrictions] to meet with affiliated national teams and donors if necessary to implement our fundraising strategy. 

REQUIRED PERSONAL QUALITIES AND SKILLS  

Candidates should demonstrate the following qualities and skills: 

• Commitment to the core principles and vision of IofC, including spiritual grounding;

• Familiarity with Initiatives of Change or comparable work (desirable); 

• At least a Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field;

• Strong communication and presentation skills (in English); and a commitment to open two-way communication with colleagues and volunteer leaders; 

• Demonstrated leadership and people skills; 

• Proven success as a development professional in the international arena, with independent responsibility for a portfolio of donors; or comparable experience in corporate sales or advocacy; 

• Extensive experience in proposal development and writing in the international arena; 

• Demonstrated skill in cultivation, networking, solicitation, and stewardship of a broad array of donors, including foundations, individuals, businesses, and government entities; 

• Deep research and analytical skills; 

• Problem-solving skills; 

• Resilience and perseverance;

• Clear understanding of the ethics and accountability required in the fundraising field; 

• Ability to juggle multiple demands and remain poised and diplomatic at all times;
