About this Opportunity
The world is changing. It needs our critical thinking to address today's complex challenges. And the University of Victoria (UVic) is ready. Inspired by and honouring place, we are a community-minded, globally engaged university where we transform ideas into meaningful impact. The University of Victoria is seeking to hire a full-time Central Development Officer as part of the Alumni and Development team, to connect alumni and community to UVic's vision as outlined in the university's 2023 strategic plan: Distinctly UVic.
Reporting to the Director of Faculty Development, the Central Development Officer (CDO) will have the opportunity to work across campus and build collaborative relationships with a variety of Faculties and/or units to cultivate philanthropic partnerships with a diverse portfolio of major and principal gift-level prospective donors. Daily tasks will include but not be limited to advising Faculty and unit leaders on philanthropic strategies, soliciting donors and qualifying prospects, drafting and editing correspondence, case statements, proposals and other communication pieces; research and stewardship activities; operations and project management; community relations; maintaining and updating confidential files and information systems, and liaising with all areas of Alumni and Development. This role provides the incumbent the chance to learn about and share initiatives across UVic, work with a variety of subject matter experts, and act as a community citizen in fundraising.
The CDO will work both on and off campus, as appropriate, to attend in-person and virtual meetings and events with the Director, Deans/unit leaders, volunteers, faculty members, staff and donors. The CDO will maintain a working space within the Alumni and Development office and may also have touch-down spots within the various units they partner with. UVic seeks to provide a vibrant on-campus experience and responsive suite of services for our students, faculty, staff and community. Connections to campus, students, clients and colleagues are necessary to some degree in all roles.
