Development Manager

Location: Indianapolis/Marion County

Terms: salaried, non-exempt

Position Description:

We’ve been great at providing home repairs, but terrible at asking for donations. In recent years, we’ve grown in our approaches to volunteer group projects, requesting financial support for their project and beyond. We have an annual Fall Repair Fest that encourages support for the event and home repairs throughout the year, and we have a small but mighty base of donors who give regularly. However, in an effort for sustainability, we know we need more help in the area of growing our donor relationships, increasing our individual and monthly donors as well as gaining a better understanding of cultivating large donations.

The most successful candidate will already have experience with donor relations, fund development, and large campaigns and be comfortable diving in.
