• Maintain and continue to cultivate relationships with current donors.
• Provide weekly updates to the Director of Annual Giving and Chief Advancement Officer on metric

• Attend and work performances, events and meetings.
SKILLS & EXPERIENCE NEEDED
• 3-5 years of frontline (one-on-one cultivating, soliciting and closing individual gifts) fundraising experience and successful administrative experience working in donor-related services for a nonprofit organization (ideally an arts non-profit.)
• Demonstrated knowledge of the principles of fundraising; able to participate in all aspects of the gift cycle.
• Demonstrated understanding of the needs and interests of all donors needed to develop relationships.
• Bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university,
• Proven ability to work with volunteer leaders, donors and patrons.
