Are you ready to turn your passion for animals and social impact into life-saving action on Cape Cod?

As the Animal Rescue League of Boston’s next Development Officer at our Brewster location, you won’t just "raise money." You will connect people who love animals to work that changes lives - helping animals heal and thrive, keeping pets and people together, and protecting animals from harm.

We are looking for an impact-driven professional with 2–5 years of experience in relationship management - whether that’s in traditional fundraising, community organizing, or mission-based sales.

We’re looking for someone who:

• Sees the Big Picture: You understand that fundraising is the engine that drives social change.
• Is a Natural Connector: You have 2–5 years of experience building authentic relationships.

The Perks of the Pack: Yes, we have the standard benefits (Health, Dental, Retirement matching), but we also offer what most organizations can’t:

• Office Pets: You can bring your own pet to work.
• Pet-Care Reimbursement: We help you take care of your furry family members.
• Tangible Impact: You’ll see the direct results of your work in the animals that walk through our doors every day.
