    Solicit $100,000+ in annual gifts from within the Grinnell Legacy Society pipeline.

    Serve as a subject-matter expert in funding gifts with non-cash assets, and understanding relevant tax, probate, trust and financial/estate planning information to apply this knowledge to address individual donor needs and goals.

    Assist the VP of Gift Planning in advancing the skills of other development staff in setting and meeting gift planning goals, through 5-10 quarterly small-team and 1:1 sessions with fundraisers.

    Respond to donor inquiries and produce appropriate contracts and paperwork associated with planned gifts, including well-written request letters, donor proposals, and other correspondence.

    Proficiency with Microsoft Office (specifically Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook) is required; experience with fundraising databases (e.g. Salesforce, Blackbaud) and specific knowledge of gift planning software (PG Calc, GiftWrap, Crescendo) is preferred.

    Demonstrated ability to work as part of a team while coaching and inspiring others, as well as to be self-directed with a high degree of accountability and attention to detail.

    Excellent writing skills and demonstrated success in proposal development and/or donor communications. Strong planning, organization, time management, and communication abilities.
