Aspen Leadership Group is proud to partner with Veterinary Initiative for Endangered Wildlife (VIEW) in the search for a Philanthropic Advisor.
Reporting to the Co-founder and Executive Director, the Philanthropic Advisor will focus on building long-term, sustainable financial support for VIEW's strategic priorities by creating and executing an annual fundraising plan that focuses on major and principal gifts. The Philanthropic Advisor will drive and manage the identification, cultivation, and solicitation of prospective donors and sponsors, assist in building and stewarding key donor relationships, and implement effective communication strategies. The Philanthropic Advisor will ensure the alignment of fundraising efforts with the organization's budget, track progress against goals, and provide regular updates to the Executive Director and Board of Directors. Through these efforts, the Philanthropic Advisor will play a pivotal role in advancing VIEW's mission, strengthening relationships with supporters, and securing the necessary resources for continued growth in the scale and impact of VIEW. This is a part time position for an average of one day per week.
VIEW is at the forefront of wildlife conservation, building sustainable health programs that tackle some of the most urgent health challenges facing endangered species today. As wildlife veterinarians deeply connected to field and academic conservation, VIEW brings a unique blend of hands-on experience and scientific insight. VIEW stands out for its collaborative and sustainable approach, working with local governments, universities, and nonprofits to integrate wildlife health into established conservation efforts. Projects focus on some of the planet's most critically endangered animals, with a proven track record in disease surveillance and prevention, as well as field surgery and medicine. VIEW is not only treating wildlife, but pioneering health systems to ensure lasting preventive measures.
VIEW believes that wildlife health is the missing piece of the global conservation strategy. Simple awareness is not enough, it is important to understand the origins and implications of disease. Infectious and transmissible disease must be identified, treated, and prevented. Failure to do so may cause untold, yet preventable, harm to wildlife populations, domestic animals, and humans. VIEW prioritizes working together with local stakeholders to build comprehensive wildlife conservation programs that run efficiently and continue long after the organization's physical presence. VIEW's approach is strategic and straightforward: support locally sustainable wildlife disease investigation, prevention, and treatment by providing training, building infrastructure, conducting research, and promoting policies that ensure healthy environments for wildlife and the people and domestic animals that share their habitat.
VIEW has built unparalleled wildlife health programs that span key geographic regions, driving transformative conservation outcomes for critically endangered species. Now, VIEW is poised to scale efforts and extend this model to create an even greater global impact.
A bachelor's degree or an equivalent combination of education and experience and at least five years of principal gift fundraising experience, including experience successfully working with high-net-worth donors, is preferred for this position. VIEW will consider candidates with a broad range of backgrounds. If you are excited about this role and feel that you can contribute to VIEW, 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 VIEW and the responsibilities and competencies presented in the position prospectus.
The salary for this part-time position is $10,000 per month for an expected average of one day per week.
