Fundraising Manager

Location:
Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Job Type:
Permanent, On-site

Role Overview

Reporting to the Director, the Fundraising Manager, is a leadership role within our fundraising team. You'll provide strategic oversight of our fundraising efforts, directly manage a portfolio of major donors and corporate partners, and guide the success of our foundation.

You'll also lead and mentor the team, fostering a culture of collaboration, accountability, and professional growth. Acting as a bridge between our programs and fundraising, you'll ensure that our donor relationships are fueled by authentic, compelling stories of impact.

If you're an experienced fundraiser who can lead every stage of the donor cycle, inspire high-performing teams, and balance strategic vision with hands-on portfolio management, we are looking for you. In this role, you'll get a chance to influence systemic change and tackle one of our city's most pressing challenges: food insecurity. And because building community is at the heart of our work, you'll share daily chef-prepared lunches with colleagues as part of living our mission together.

Key Responsibilities

Manage a portfolio of up to 75 major gifts prospects and donors, securing gifts of $5,000+ through cultivation, solicitation, and stewardship.

Expand the major gifts and foundations pipeline through strategic prospecting, qualification, and engagement of new donors, strengthening future revenue and donor retention.

Build strong pipelines between mid-level and major giving, ensuring donor relationships progress smoothly.

Partner with program staff to develop proposals, reports, and impact stories tailored to donor interests.

Strategic Fundraising Leadership

Collaborate with the Director to refine and execute our fundraising strategy in alignment with our mission and values.

Identify new opportunities to diversify revenue streams and deepen donor engagement.

Establish best practices, policies, and procedures that ensure ethical, effective fundraising.

Raise awareness of food insecurity and social justice issues among internal and external audiences.

Team Leadership & Development

Serve on the organization's leadership team, contributing to strategic goals.

Manage and mentor two Development Officers, providing guidance, feedback, and professional development opportunities.

Lead regular team meetings, set clear performance goals, and celebrate successes.

Foster a supportive, high-performance culture that empowers staff to exceed fundraising targets.

Data & Compliance

Oversee accurate donor record management in our CRM (Virtuous), ensuring data integrity.

Track, analyze, and report on fundraising activities and outcomes for senior leadership and the Board.

Ensure all fundraising activities comply with CRA regulations and Imagine Canada standards.

Qualifications

Proven track record in securing major gifts ($5,000+) from individuals and foundations.

Minimum 5 years' experience in fundraising, including team management and mentorship.

Strategic thinker with strong foresight, problem-solving skills, and the ability to spot and seize opportunities.

Exceptional relationship-builder with clear, persuasive communication skills and the ability to tailor messaging for diverse audiences.

Experience managing corporate/foundation partnerships.

Proficiency with fundraising CRMs and Microsoft Office Suite.

Commitment to anti-racism/anti-oppression, ethical fundraising, and community well-being.

Knowledge of the Canadian charitable sector and CRA compliance requirements.
