Aspen Leadership Group is proud to partner with the Boston Symphony Orchestra (BSO) in its search for a Vice President of Development and Campaign Planning.

The Vice President of Development and Campaign Planning, a newly created position, will be responsible for building a best-in-class prospect development, gift administration, IT, systems and records management, and data analytics function for all fundraising, as well as leading strategic data, gift services, and oversight of a growing annual fund. Reporting to and in partnership with the Chief Development Officer, the Vice President will provide strategic leadership and planning, including financial, programmatic, and capital goals and objectives, for a transformative campaign that will be the largest in the institution's history. This position is based in Boston, MA with substantial time in Tanglewood required during the summer. Housing in the Berkshires is provided by the BSO.

The BSO engages millions of people each year in the remarkable diversity and wonder of orchestral music and maintains homes at its iconic venues, Boston's Symphony Hall and Tanglewood in Western Massachusetts. From the Boston Pops Fireworks Spectacular on the Charles River Esplanade to community concerts throughout Greater Boston, an annual BSO Youth and Family series at Symphony Hall, humanities programs at the Tanglewood Learning Institute, and tour performances in concert halls around the world, the BSO remains committed to innovation, creativity, cultural relevance, education, civic engagement, and making orchestral music accessible to audiences of all ages, backgrounds, and levels of familiarity. Celebrated for its diverse programs, passionate performances, and tradition of innovation, the Boston Symphony Orchestra—under the artistic direction of Andris Nelsons since 2014—has been at the forefront of artistry for more than 140 years. At home, abroad, and through recordings, television, and radio broadcasts, a deep and inclusive commissioning legacy, and a history of cultivating emerging artists, the BSO reinforces its status as one of the world's most accomplished and versatile ensembles, attracting world-renowned guest artists, composers, and conductors.

The BSO prefers candidates with a bachelor's degree or equivalent, plus at least eight years of advancement experience, though applicants from diverse backgrounds are welcome. If you are excited about this role and feel that you can contribute to the BSO, but your experience does not exactly align with every qualification listed above, we encourage you to apply. All applications must be accompanied by a cover letter and résumé. Cover letters should be responsive to the mission of the BSO and the responsibilities and competencies presented in the position prospectus.

The salary range for this position is $200,000 to $250,000 annually.

The BSO is committed to the inclusion of all qualified candidates. If you require reasonable accommodation in completing this application, interviewing, or participating in the selection process, please contact Jeanette Rivera-Watts at jeanetterw@aspenleadershipgroup.com.
