Director of Development

The Coding School is seeking a Director of Development to lead the fundraising efforts for our work as a 501(c)3 nonprofit. The Director of Development will be responsible for spearheading development efforts as TCS continues to grow, reporting to the Chief Operating Officer. Specifically, this position will develop and execute a strategic fundraising plan to center around four streams of philanthropy: corporate partnerships, public grants, foundations, and individual donors. As a new position in the organization, the Director will have the opportunity to build the development function, employing creative and strategic approaches to secure funds and maximize the impact.

The Coding School functions like an early-stage start-up, with each team member wearing multiple hats and working in areas that they may not have prior experience in. No two days look the same, and team members often have to juggle several projects or priorities at the same time. Thus, we are looking for individuals who enjoy fast-paced, dynamic work environments where problem solving, creative thinking, and taking initiative are a must.

Duties include but are not limited to:

  • Identify funding opportunities across a range of sources, including individual donors, grants, foundations, and corporations;
  • Develop and execute annual fundraising strategy, including grants, corporate partnerships, foundations, and individual donors;
  • Secure financial support from individuals, foundations, grants, and corporations;
  • Play an active role in grant funding, including sourcing and scoping grants, grant writing, preparing submissions and awards, ranging from $50,000 to $1+ million and prepare grant submissions, including writing and editing proposals, coordinating with partners, and developing budgets; and maintain required reporting to funding sources;
  • Create and execute a strategy for a sustained base of individual donors;
  • Prepare reports and communication for all financial obligations, including newsletters to donors, reports to corporate partners, etc.;
  • Act as the point person on fundraising, development and advancement in communications with external parties and the Board; 
  • Prepare bi-annual financial reports for Board;
  • Create and negotiate contracts, agreements, MOU’s;
  • Ensure financial compliance with local, state and federal agencies;
  • Work with the Executive Director and Program Director to develop initiatives and programs to fulfill donor obligations or as strategic initiatives to foster new relationships;
  • Conduct data analysis, and marketing – such as developing pitch decks and one pagers, and public relations experience to help communicate organization’s impact;

Required skills / experience:

  • Bachelor’s degree required;
  • Minimum of 5 years experience in nonprofit fundraising, or a relevant field;
  • Proven record of success in fundraising in excess of $1M;
  • Experience building corporate partnerships, successful fundraising strategies, and donor relations;
  • Experience working with grant accounting – knowledge of federal grant regulations and principals (preferred);
  • Experience writing grant proposals;
  • Knowledge of governmental accounting practices (preferred);
  • Experience managing financial projects of $1M+;
  • Strong organizational skills;
  • Proficiency in computer financial applications;
  • Superior analytical skills and problem solving abilities;
  • Prior people-management experience is preferred, but not required;

To apply, please submit your resume/CV and cover letter.
