  • Set and maintain contact and fundraising goals, reviewed and approved by the Director of Development.
  • Maintain an organized calendar of relationship-building activities.

Expectations:

  • Participate in weekly Development Team check-in meetings and regular meetings with the Relationship Management Team.

General Qualifications:

  • Agreement with the PJM Statement of Faith.
  • At least 3 years of experience in fundraising, major gifts, development/advancement, or relationship-based sales.
  • Familiarity with Blackbaud’s Raiser’s Edge or NXT, or a related contact database.
  • Excellent writing, editing, and communication skills.
  • Demonstrated empathy, genuine care, and sensitivity to donors, with the ability to pray with people meaningfully.
