The Associate Director, Coordinator II will be a fundraiser on a direct revenue generating team which was recently reorganized with the addition of a new Director, who is tasked with leading and growing the mid-level Annual Giving program – the Ambassadors – focusing on gift renewal and upgrade for contributions in the $1,000 – $24,999 range. The team provides a continuum of cultivation/solicitation/renewal and stewardship activities to engage and increase involvement and loyalty of CHLA donors.

The Associate Director, Coordinator II will need to quickly learn CHLA Foundation infrastructure and partners, including CRM, digital tools, direct response, information services, donor relations, and donor services, to successfully perform:

• Donor-facing inbound calls, what we call Ambassadors Concierge

• Donor-facing outbound calls and meetings
• As needed, perform data organization and reporting
• Exceptional communication skills and a desire to learn
• Planning and organization
• Building partnerships across the organization
• Managing resources to prioritize effectively as well as time-management
• Polish and presentation skills
• Conceptual thinking and a knack for problem-solving individually and on teams
• The ability to work independently in a hybrid environment

We are searching for an entrepreneurial, metrics-driven individual who will thrive in an environment of high-pressure. The right candidate will be as comfortable having deep 1:1 conversations with prospects and donors as performing critical back-end support work to ensure database integrity. This swift interchange of work will be challenging, but rewarding, as the team works together to build the next generation of the Ambassadors mid-level program. This is a high-performing, high-energy team that will require a positive, solutions-oriented individual for optimal support. In addition to great job experience, this position will also receive the opportunity for cross-functional and multi-level mentoring and partnerships.
