    Manager of Individual Giving - New York, United States - NYLAG

    Default job background
    Description
    About NYLAG:
    Founded in 1990, NYLAG is a leading civil legal services organization combating economic, racial, and social injustice by advocating for people experiencing poverty or in crisis. Our services include comprehensive, free civil legal services, financial empowerment, impact litigation, policy advocacy, and community partnerships. NYLAG exists because wealth should not determine who has access to justice. We aim to disrupt systemic racism by serving individuals and families whose legal and financial crises are often rooted in racial inequality. NYLAG goes to where the need is, providing services in more than 150 community sites (e.g. courts, hospitals, libraries) and on our Mobile Legal Help Center. During COVID-19, most of our services are virtual to keep our community safe. NYLAG's staff of 370 impacted the lives of nearly 129,000 people last year.

    • Create and manage a detailed schedule of direct marketing/donor communications activities, including research, copywriting, design, production and mailing, and list selection/segmentation.
    • Secure testimonials, stories, photos, and videos from NYLAG clients, volunteers, and staff in a respectful and trauma-informed manner. Craft compelling narratives that convey the need for NYLAG's services and the impact of donor support.
    • Participate in standing meetings with the marketing unit and leaders of programmatic units to foster cross-team collaboration and improve engagement with various audiences.
    • Collaborate with the Development Coordinator to 1) maintain and update individual donor records in the donor database; and 2) ensure all donations are properly documented and stewarded.
    • Assist other Philanthropy efforts, including working events on and off site such as the Annual Gala, Pro Bono Awards, and other events.
    • Stay current on annual giving best practices and maximize use of data and other resources to make strategic recommendations and implementations.
    Qualifications
    • Bachelor's Degree or comparable work experience.
    • Minimum of three years' experience with nonprofit fundraising, donor communications, and individual giving programs.
    • Experience working with a donor database and email marketing platform; Salesforce NPSP and Marketing Cloud Account Engagement (formerly known as Pardot) experience strongly preferred.
    • Familiarity with donation platforms and other similar fundraising software.
    • Proficiency in Microsoft Office.
    • Demonstrated ability to lead, collaborate, and build consensus.
