Position: Director of Development

Terms of Employment: Full-time, permanent

Location: Calgary

**Job Purpose**

Reporting to the Chief Executive Officer and supervising Fund Development, Communications and Marketing, the role of the Director of Development is to assist the Chief Executive Officer in achieving the Kerby Centre vision of a community of engaged older adults. The position will be responsible for planning and managing all philanthropic activity, and for building and cultivating relationships with the following constituencies: donors, key community stakeholders, and members of the corporate and business community.

This position exercises considerable independent managerial discretion in the development and building of an annual program which includes events, grant-seeking opportunities, direct mail and digital solicitations, and developing a business plan and case for support to engage prospects and donors. This individual has independent discretion and operates across all aspects of typical managerial decisions.

This position is accountable to develop and execute a strategy for business development to ensure sufficient funds are available to achieve the identified philanthropy goals and objectives of the organization. This will include corporate support and sponsorship. Additionally, the individual will assist social enterprise advocacy business units in maximizing revenue and profit.

Maintaining professional relationships with donors and stewards is vital to the success of this role and to the organization. Adverse relationships will have a detrimental impact on organizational success.

Ensuring the confidentiality related to donations and development programs is critical to the ongoing success for this position. Disclosure of this information would be detrimental to Unison.
