Director of Individual Major Gifts - East Bay

The Director of Individual Major Gifts - East Bay establishes and maintains a personal portfolio of up to 150 individual donors who are among KQEDs most significant supporters with a focus on annual asks of $10,000 or more. This position averages approximately 10-12 visits or high-contacts each month. High contacts are defined as 15 minutes or longer phone calls, proposals, sitting next to donors at events, meeting in person with current and prospective donors, as well as volunteers. Funding will be sought and secured for all KQED content areas (news, arts, science and education) and for all platforms (television, radio, web and social) of KQED. Under the direction of the Senior Director of Major Gifts, this position will support KQEDs President and CEO, Vice President for Development, other major gifts staff and key volunteers in cultivation and solicitation initiatives for unrestricted funding as well as projects. KQED envisions a public media organization with a culture that centers on human dignity, equity, and belonging. This will enable us to better serve and reflect the Bay Area through diverse and inclusive storytelling. We value the contributions of marginalized people in society — including Black, Indigenous, and all people of color, people with disabilities, and LGBTQIA+ people — and we believe that these communities must be centered in the work we do, and we strongly encourage members of these communities to apply.KQED Code of Ethics
