Job Description

Goodwill South Florida is seeking a Strategic Giving Officer to join our Office for Philanthropy. This position is key in advancing our mission by raising philanthropic support through the proactive identification, cultivation, solicitation, and stewardship of new and existing donors, primarily focusing on individual major gifts.

Ideal candidates will have fundraising experience in a charitable setting such as a nonprofit, university, or healthcare institution and demonstrate proficiency in building and managing a portfolio of individual donors, corporations, and foundations, including the proactive engagement and solicitation of major and annual gifts, occasional grant writing, and sponsorships.

The Strategic Giving Officer will serve as the lead relationship manager for members of our annual fund, the Goodwill Giving Circle, and will collaborate across departments to ensure consistent and high-impact donor experience.

This is an opportunity to join a mission-driven team at a pivotal time of growth, helping to scale programs already delivering measurable impact on the lives of people with disabilities and other barriers to employment.

Duties and Responsibilities:

  • To establish and serve as the primary relationship manager for a portfolio of major donors, focusing on identifying, cultivating, soliciting, and stewarding long-term philanthropic support.
  • Collaborate with the Vice President of Philanthropy, senior leadership, and the Board of Directors to identify and engage prospective donors.
  • Lead donor engagement through all stages of the fundraising cycle—including discovery, cultivation, solicitation, and stewardship—with attention to strategy and outcomes.
  • Support the development and execution of annual giving campaigns, with specific goals related to individual major gifts.
  • Develop and submit select grant proposals to corporations and foundations, track deadlines, requirements, and outcomes.
  • Secure sponsorships for signature events and special initiatives as needed.
  • Provide strategic and logistical support to Board-led fundraising efforts, including those driven by the Development Committee.
  • Maintain accurate and timely records in the donor CRM (and paper files where applicable); manage donor data integrity, reporting, and related vendor relationships.
  • Demonstrated leadership in managing projects, balancing multiple priorities, and executing donor-centered initiatives.
  • Meet minimum performance metrics and achieve annual goals.
  • Perform other duties as assigned.

Education and Experience:

Bachelor’s degree required, advanced degree a plus. Minimum of 5 years of experience in individual fundraising, with a strong track record of securing major gifts – preferably in education, human services, or a related field. Demonstrated ability to cultivate, solicit, and steward donors at the major gift level. Excellent writing skills and experience drafting compelling donor communications and grant proposals are required. Proficiency in fundraising databases (CRM systems) and standard office software are essential. Exceptional interpersonal and presentation skills, with the ability to engage effectively with various stakeholders.

Strong command of English, both written and verbal. Bilingual (English/Spanish) strongly preferred.
