Job Description

Aspen Leadership Group is proud to partner with Carnegie Mellon University in the search for an Associate Vice President for Development.

Reporting to the Senior Associate Vice President for University Advancement, the Associate Vice President for Development will lead central fundraising units, including Gift Planning, International Development, Leadership Annual Giving, and Campus Initiatives. The Associate Vice President will collaborate with deans and college and school-based advancement staff to enhance development programs for the university's seven colleges and libraries, including coordinating fundraising strategies and priorities, budget and staffing models, volunteer fundraising boards, and metrics and analysis. The Associate Vice President will be responsible for cultivating, soliciting, and stewarding a select group of prospects. As a member of the senior leadership team, the Associate Vice President will set and achieve goals that advance the mission of the university and benefit its community of faculty, staff, students, and alumni. The Associate Vice President will promote a culture of philanthropy and increase alumni participation in the university's comprehensive fundraising campaign.

Carnegie Mellon University is a private, internationally ranked research university with programs in areas ranging from science, technology, and business to public policy, the humanities, and the arts. More than 15,000 students in CMU's seven schools and colleges benefit from a small student-to-faculty ratio and an education characterized by its focus on creating and implementing solutions for real problems, interdisciplinary collaboration, and innovation.

A Carnegie Mellon education is marked by its strong focus on fundamental and versatile problem-solving skills, both within a specific discipline and with an interdisciplinary approach. The university respects and values students, acknowledging that varied talents and interests often span many specialties, and that the world's challenges and opportunities are rarely contained by a single discipline. Students can explore more than one field of study while developing the strong professional core that is the hallmark of a Carnegie Mellon education. CMU encourages students to expand their thinking in new and exciting dimensions, with a strong focus on experiential learning in and out of the classroom, on and off campus.

Carnegie Mellon is positioned like never before to meet the challenges of the 21st century. At the intersection of technology and humanity, CMU's research, innovation, and creativity will continue to guide the future as a world-class university. A member of the Association of American Universities, CMU generates more than $400 million in research annually and ranks No. 21 among national universities in U.S. News & World Report, with the undergraduate computer science program ranking No. 2 and graduate No. 1, undergraduate engineering ranking No. 8, and undergraduate business ranking No. 6.

A bachelor's degree or equivalent combination of training and experience and at least seven years of progressively responsible experience in development, with at least five of those years being in management, including experience as a Chief Advancement Officer or Assistant/Associate Dean of a school or college in a complex research university, is preferred for this position. Experience in a campaign environment is desirable. Carnegie Mellon University will consider candidates with a broad range of backgrounds. If you are excited about this role and feel that you can contribute to CMU, but your experience does not exactly align with every qualification listed above, we encourage you to apply. A successful completion of a background check is required for this position. All applications must be accompanied by a cover letter and rsum. Cover letters should be responsive to the mission of Carnegie Mellon University and the position of Associate Vice President for Development as presented in the position prospectus.
