About Purpose Possible

Purpose Possible empowers mission-driven organizations to overcome the roadblocks that prevent them from making their purpose possible. We are thinkers AND doers. We’ll create the plan and then implement that plan on a daily basis. Our work focuses on helping organizations meet the current demands of their operational budgets, while also planning for sustainable program expansion and organizational growth. We are passionate about communities and the people that create them. We combine success-based methodologies, deep networks, and a proven track record with enthusiasm, energy, and expertise. 

About the Role

Purpose Possible provides both hourly fundraising and retainer based support for clients all over the country. We are particularly in need of fundraisers with experience across multiple types of fundraising. Experience managing development offices is a plus, as is experience in multiple aspects of fundraising, including individual giving, foundation relations, grant management, major gifts and boards of directors. Communication skills are imperative to helping our clients reach their goals – you must be able to instill confidence in our clients. We predominantly work remotely, so being self motivated and comfortable working independently is of the utmost importance. You will need to be able to stay organized while working with multiple clients and prioritize your work based upon deadlines and urgency. We are especially interested in fundraisers with experience in capital campaigns and feasibility studies. Experience with CRMs is desired. In order to ensure our clients are getting the most benefit, you will also need to research additional grant opportunities and determine the best fit(s) for the client. 

Senior Consultants will be responsible for ensuring their assigned clients have a work plan, an understanding of their roles, and clear deadlines. All senior consultants have a broad range of responsibilities, including but not limited to: 

  • Working closely with the Director of Client Services to ensure seamless client experience and execution of ongoing service
  • Ensuring that PP services exceed client expectations
  • Updating the PP team on your progress
  • Communicating with the client regularly, including regular meetings (set at mutually agreed upon times) and submitting monthly reports
  • Directly supervising assigned client-facing team members
  • Attending regular company meetings
  • Supporting renewal process for existing clients
  • Identifying potential additional service areas for assigned clients, and looping in the Client Care representative for follow up.

The firm does other consulting work, and there will be opportunities for Senior Fundraising Consultants to work in other areas of expertise. 

Required Knowledge, Skills, Experience, and Training

  • Ability to perform all of the above
  • Successfully raised funds by segmenting donors
  • Excellent communication skills, both written and oral
  • Be deadline oriented and organized
  • Have experience researching additional opportunities
  • Be self motivated and able to work independently

Desired Knowledge, Skills, Experience, and Training

  • Previous consulting experience, especially with managing more than one client
  • Fundraising experience could include individual giving, grant writing, managing corporate relationships, marketing, and/or annual funds. 
  • Project management experience
  • Previous experience working with wealth screening software
  • Experience with capital campaigns and/or feasibility studies
  • Spanish fluency a plus but not required
  • CRM experience

Schedule and Location
