Donor Relations Advisor

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Donor Relations Advisor based in United States.

This role is focused on building and nurturing long-term relationships with donors to strengthen financial support for mission-driven programs across a defined U.S. region. You will manage a portfolio of existing and prospective donors, using tailored engagement strategies to deepen commitment and increase giving.
The position blends relationship management, strategic fundraising, and storytelling to connect donors meaningfully with organizational impact.
You will work closely with internal teams to align donor interests with funding opportunities and program needs.
The role requires a high level of personalization, communication, and trust-building across in-person, virtual, and written channels.
You will also contribute to regional fundraising growth through structured engagement planning and donor stewardship activities.
This is a hybrid, field-engaged role that combines independent portfolio management with collaborative, mission-focused work.

Accountabilities:
  • Manage a portfolio of assigned donors by developing and executing individualized engagement and stewardship strategies.
  • Build and maintain strong donor relationships through personalized communication, including meetings, calls, written updates, and virtual interactions.
  • Identify, qualify, and cultivate prospective major and planned gift donors to expand long-term funding opportunities.
  • Develop and implement Moves Management strategies to guide donors through progressive stages of engagement and giving.
  • Prepare tailored proposals, funding requests, and impact communications aligned with donor interests and organizational priorities.
  • Maintain accurate donor records and engagement tracking within CRM systems (e.g., Salesforce).
  • Collaborate with internal teams to align donor engagement with program updates, communications, and impact storytelling.
  • Represent the organization at regional events, donor meetings, and engagement activities, including occasional travel domestically and internationally.
Requirements:
  • Bachelor’s degree in nonprofit management, business, communications, marketing, or a related field.
  • 3+ years of experience in fundraising, donor relations, major gift development, sales, or relationship management roles.
  • Strong ability to build trust-based relationships and engage diverse stakeholders through excellent communication skills.
  • Experience managing portfolios, developing engagement strategies, and achieving fundraising or revenue targets.
  • Proficiency with CRM systems such as Salesforce or similar donor/data management platforms.
  • Strong organizational and time management skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities independently.
  • Ability to handle confidential information with professionalism, discretion, and integrity.
  • Willingness to travel regionally (25–30%) and occasionally internationally as required.
  • CFRE certification or progress toward certification is considered an asset.
Benefits:
  • Salary range: $80,649 – $90,730 annually
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance options
  • Health Savings Account (HSA) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA)
  • 401(k) retirement plan with employer matching contributions
  • Short-term and long-term disability coverage
  • Life insurance and accidental death & dismemberment coverage
  • Paid time off and paid holidays
  • Professional development and certification support (including fundraising-related credentials)
  • Hybrid work arrangement with regional flexibility
  • Opportunity for regional and international travel exposure
