Your focus will be on leveraging a well-defined framework to deepen existing relationships, cultivate new national partnerships, secure grant funding, and drive support for high-profile museum priorities and flagship events like our annual Play Ball gala.

Proven Track Record: 5+ years in direct fundraising with demonstrated experience closing significant corporate gifts, foundation grants, and sponsorships.
Strategic Relationship Management: A talent for moves management, prospect research, proposal writing, and aligning partner marketing goals with mission-driven opportunities.
Collaborative Mindset: A desire to work closely with cross-functional teams—from Marketing to Exhibits—to deliver meaningful donor recognition and steward long-term support.
