We are looking for a Development Officer to join our team at Make-A-Wish Canada.

This role includes but is not limited to creating and maintaining excellent relationships with donors, sponsors, volunteers, and other supporters in northern Alberta, and collaborating closely with the western region’s development and wish advancement teams in driving resource development to grow the mission. This position may be responsible for supervising/managing paid support staff/volunteers.

This role is located in Edmonton and is a full-time, permanent, hybrid position.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

  • Work in collaboration with the team to develop and execute short-term and long-term development goals for the chapter, ensuring increased revenue year-over-year.
  • Develop strong working relationships with internal and external stakeholders (National, Regional and Provincial Offices, volunteers, suppliers, sponsors, donors, community liaisons, media, community leaders etc.).
  • Establish and provide support to event committees as required to ensure success of events (e.g., guidance, materials, staff/volunteers, timelines, etc.).
  • Collaborate with the development team in identifying opportunities for development and growth in donations, sponsorship and awareness (e.g., individual and corporate gifts in support of the mission; sponsorships for event décor, silent auction, prizes, food and drinks, entertainment, supplies, equipment, venues, etc.).
  • In collaboration with the team, coordinate all logistics for major chapter first party events.
  • Collaborate with the team and region staff to engage volunteers, campaign and event committees.
  • Collaborate with the region’s Volunteer Engagement Coordinator to identify, recruit, manage and steward fundraising volunteers, including event committees.
  • Collaborate with internal departments to assist with development or coordination of material, utilizing a high degree of creativity in the development and design of marketing and communications material including PSAs, media releases, brochures, Wish Stories, and content for digital and traditional media. May include social/marketing media.
  • Use the existing Wish Granting database and work in collaboration with Wish Granting staff to identify appropriate Wish Families for event participation.
  • Other duties as assigned.

WHAT YOU BRING

  • Post-secondary education in Business Administration, Management, Philanthropy, or related discipline, or an equivalent combination of education, training and experience.
  • 2 -3 years working experience in a not-for-profit organization with demonstrated success in donor cultivation, stewardship, and multi-channel fundraising is ideal.
  • Proven success in soliciting donations, volunteer coordination and project/event management. Supervisory experience is an asset.
  • Ability to work independently and on various tasks simultaneously.
  • Demonstrated experience in overseeing tasks of others and to work with others on a job to achieve the best results.

YOUR WORK ENVIRONMENT

  • This position requires work outside or beyond traditional office hours and thus requires a flexible schedule year-round.

Physical/Mental Effort

  • Works under pressure with multiple tight deadlines, demands, high volume workload, and dynamic/overlapping priorities.
  • Emotional situations in dealing with wish recipients and families facing live-threatening conditions or illnesses, in palliative care, and end-of-life stages.
