\ WHAT WE CAN ACHIEVE TOGETHER
The Director has an opportunity to grow the donor base for Climate priorities at TNC and works within an excellent fundraising team and infrastructure. The Director is externally and internally focused with two main responsibilities. First, they are responsible for growing our climate prospect pipeline and for continuing to maintain a portfolio of prospective donors. Second, they are responsible for socializing the Climate initiatives to VIP audiences internal to the Conservancy and coordinating, networking, partnering with fundraisers internally to assist work with donors that support and/or are interested in Climate. The DoD is a member of the Global Priorities Development Team (within Principal Gifts) and as part of the Global Tackle Climate Change Leadership Team. The Director reports directly to the Director of Global Priorities Development and works very closely with the Global Managing Director for Climate, Managing Director for Climate Programs, and the rest of the Climate leadership team. This position also manages the Associate Director of Development for Global Climate.
Specifically, the Director is responsible for designing, building and executing a private philanthropic fundraising plan for the Conservancy\'s Global Climate priorities. The Director will manage and grow a donor portfolio while also supporting fundraisers throughout the organization to ultimately raise at least \$10 Million in gifts and pledges annually for the Global Tackle Climate Change Team. There is a focus on raising flexible funding to support TNC\'s global Climate Priorities and the work the Global TCC team manages. The Director will motivate the efforts of a multi-disciplinary team of staff and volunteers in activities related to donor identification, cultivation, and solicitation. In some cases, the Director will be the relationship manager and in other cases an active team member with fundraisers across TNC. The Director will serve as a liaison with the principal gifts fundraising team and network, the global priority development team, as well as other key relationsh p managers and senior conservation staff to build the best and most robust donor strategies and solicitations. This will help ensure we represent and communicate the synergies between all of the global priority areas to our donors - what we call One-Conservancy. Also, working with fundraising colleagues and the Global TCC team, the Director will help prioritize strategic development engagement at world stage events, including CoP and New York Climate Week.
