    Manager, Annual Giving, Advancement

    Full-time, Continuing Contract

    Crofton House School offers a girl-centred learning environment for students from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 12. Here, students are motivated to strive for their best selves, embracing academic challenges and diverse experiences, guided by staff who know them and believe in them.

    Bound by our belief in the power of girl-centred education, Crofton House School fosters a strong sense of community among educators, staff, students from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 12, and families. Here, everyone can contribute to the strength of our school– including you.

    We offer extensive professional development opportunities, competitive compensation, and a comprehensive benefits package. Our 10-acre campus provides modern facilities, as well as beautiful outdoor spaces and a daily connection to nature.

    This is an exciting time to be joining Crofton House and its Advancement Department. In early 2023, the School launched its new strategic plan,Thriving in Possibility, coinciding with its 125th anniversary. This plan articulates the CHS identity and sets out the School's commitment tobelonging, agility, and responsibility. The School and Board are now finalizing an Advancement plan to support the School's strategic priorities.

    The Annual Giving Manager reports to the Director of Advancement and will focus on building a year-round fundraising plan to grow the CHS Annual Fund and Annual Golf Classic Tournament. They will engage parents, past parents, and alumnae through an intentional and meaningful stewardship plan while working collaboratively with the rest of the Advancement team. Through various means, they will identify, cultivate, and steward meaningful relationships with established and potential donors, seeking and securing gifts for the Annual Fund and the Annual Golf Classic.

    The successful candidate will have significant experience building fundraising programs while creating meaningful connections across the organization. They are passionate about education in general and understand the particular value of an independent school community. An effective and passionate communicator, collaborative by nature, they enjoy engaging in a personal and thoughtful way with donors and Crofton House School community members.

    They will bring professionalism and strong stewardship skills, combined with a demonstrated ability to create opportunities for collaboration while working independently toward a long-term vision.

    The School's aspiration is to grow this position to the Assistant Director level, with the possibility of including a more direct involvement around community engagement. The School is currently engaged in a review of its community partnerships which includes the role that Advancement plays in them.

    This role has the opportunity to participate in our flexible working hours program.

Objectives are set following the School's Strategic Plan and are endorsed by prior Board approval.
