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 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.

- Identify funding opportunities across a range of sources, including individual donors, grants, foundations, and corporations;

- 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;
