Vice President, Development, Wistar Institute 

The Wistar Institute (the Institute) (https://wistar.org/) seeks a passionate, driven, collaborative, and thoughtful individual to become the Vice President, Development. 

The Institute is an international leader in biomedical research with special expertise in cancer research and vaccine development. Founded in 1892 as the first independent nonprofit biomedical research institute in the United States, Wistar has held the prestigious Cancer Center designation from the National Cancer Institute since 1972. The Institute works actively to ensure that research advances move from the laboratory to the clinic as quickly as possible.

As part of the strategic plan, the Institute wants to increase its philanthropic activities and investments and recently announced a capital campaign.  As of June 2022, the campaign has raised nearly 60 percent of its $75 million goal. This includes a $20-million anonymous gift and a $10-million gift to rename the center to the Ellen and Ronald Caplan Cancer Center. The Institute’s campaign consultant is Martz & Lundy.

The Institute needs a dynamic and effective development leader to steward its fundraising activities. Interested or know someone who might be? The Institute has retained the services of Lincoln Leadership  (https://lincolnleadership.co/) and please contact Danny Guerrero at 646 298-9525 or dguerrero@lincolnleadership.co.
