CR is known for our rigorous testing and trusted ratings on thousands of products and services. We report extensively on consumer trends and challenges, and survey millions of people in the U.S. each year. We leverage our evidence-based approach to advocate for consumer rights, working with policymakers and companies to find solutions for safer products and fair practices.

OVERVIEW

As a nonprofit and social enterprise, CR depends on philanthropic partners to help advance our mission. The Associate Director, Philanthropic Partnerships, will expand our community of philanthropic partners working with Consumer Reports to create a fairer, safer, and healthier marketplace.

Reporting to the Senior Director, Philanthropic Partnerships, you will build and manage a growing pipeline of institutional and individual donors, moving opportunities from identification and cultivation through solicitation and close. You will have significant ownership of the work while partnering with colleagues across CR to connect donors with some of the most important challenges facing consumers today. You will also help foster a strategic, collaborative, and donor-centric culture, and represent Philanthropic Partnerships in conversations with CR leadership and external partners.

This is a remote position with travel up to 25% of the time. This position is not eligible for relocation assistance.

How You’ll Make An Impact:

Philanthropic support gives CR the resources to take on important issues: raising public awareness of harms, influencing corporate behavior, and changing policy. Your work will help build partnerships that drive change, promote innovation, and empower consumers to protect themselves.

In This Role, You Will:

• Own a portfolio of 125-150 institutional and individual donors and prospects, identifying, qualifying, cultivating, and soliciting them to meet annual revenue goals.
• Manage grants and restricted gifts, maintaining an efficient grants management system, overseeing grant agreements in partnership with donors, and working with internal stakeholders to deliver on every commitment.
• Shape department strategy, working with the Senior Director, Director, and CR leadership to set goals and objectives and to guide execution.

ABOUT YOU

You’ll Be Highly Rated If:

• You have the required education and experience. We're looking for someone with a Bachelor's Degree and at least 5-years professional experience working in non-profit fundraising systems with increasing responsibilities.
• You have a track record of personally securing gifts of $100K or more and owning and managing a portfolio of 125-150 donors.
• You’re a problem solver. You can identify and solve problems while managing multiple priorities and efforts of other team members.
• You can summarize the essence of issues and the means to address them by tapping into your strong written and verbal communication skills.
• You are deadline-driven and able to develop and move projects forward with independence and autonomy.
• You have high detail orientation. You check and double check your work, especially around the accuracy and quality of numbers and data.
• You have a team-first, institution-wide perspective: you build strong working relationships and help the team succeed while protecting the organization’s integrity.

You’ll Be One of Our Top Picks If:

• You are familiar with CR’s work and have knowledge of our specific issue areas.
• You have existing relationships with CR donors or prospects.
• You have worked with both institutional AND individual donors.
