Description
Job Description
Job DescriptionDescription:Reporting to the Chief Advancement Officer (CAO) and in collaboration with the President, the Director of Foundation Relations will be responsible for setting the strategic direction of the fundraising plan as it relates to foundation giving as part of the overall development plan for annual and special gifts. The Director will be the primary point of contact for foundation philanthropy and is responsible for staying current with trends in fundraising and foundation relations.

The Director will work with an established portfolio of donors to sustain the impressive level of foundation support achieved in recent years and aim to attract new support, including from national funders over time.
This position will play a critical role on FamilyAid's development team which is responsible for raising approximately 25% of the operating budget, which was $21M in FY23. The Director of Foundation Relations will supervise two additional staff members (1 full-time; 1 quarter time). Their work will support general operations, as well as special projects such as the aforementioned FNC special gifts campaign. The Director of Foundation Relations will be an exceptional writer, a highly skilled communicator, a critical and creative thinker and a strategic relationship builder. This position requires a deadline-driven, detail-oriented, highly organized development professional who shares FamilyAid's values in helping homeless families secure and sustain housing.
