Director of Philanthropy (Treasure Coast) | Out-based Role | Hiring up to $80,000
At Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida, we don't just talk about changing the world - we do it, one Girl Scout troop at a time. We are seeking a bold, relationship-driven Director of Philanthropy (Director of Development & Philanthropy) to ignite philanthropy and expand our impact across the Treasure Coast (Martin, Saint Lucie, Indian River and Okeechobee counties). This is a chance to be the face of Girl Scouts in the community - cultivating donors, forging corporate partnerships, and championing the resources that empower girls to lead with courage, confidence, and character.
As our Director of Philanthropy
, you will manage an annual portfolio of at least 100 prospects and donors. Reporting to the Chief Advancement Officer, and collaborating closely with the Director of Advancement, you will actively cultivate and secure gifts in the $5,000–$20,000 range and will lead efforts to expand our sponsorship base across the Treasure Coast. Through presentations, events, and face-to-face meetings, you'll bring the Girl Scout mission to life for donors and partners, positioning us as the nonprofit of choice for investment.
The Director of Philanthropy will also play a pivotal role in advancing our capital priorities, including the restoration and reimagining of Camp Welaka in Martin County. This beloved Girl Scout property is at the heart of our vision to expand outdoor leadership opportunities for girls, and significant philanthropic investment will be needed to bring that vision to life. You will help inspire donors to see themselves as part of a lasting legacy-one that not only transforms a camp but also creates a powerful space where future generations of Girl Scouts will grow, lead, and thrive.
The Director of Philanthropy will research funding opportunities, track donor engagement in our database, and produce timely reports on progress toward financial goals. You'll collaborate on sponsorship decks, help develop fundraising strategies, and ensure all work is done with the highest ethical and professional standards.
To excel in this role, you should bring at least five years of fundraising or development experience, a bachelor's degree, and a proven ability to cultivate donor relationships. Strong communication and interpersonal skills are essential, as well as proficiency with donor management systems like Donor Perfect. A CFRE credential is strongly preferred, and bilingual fluency in Spanish or French is a plus.
Most importantly, the Director of Philanthropy must bring passion, energy, and a commitment to telling the story of how Girl Scouts prepares girls to thrive.
This is a full-time, exempt, out-based Director of Philanthropy position based in the Treasure Coast. Flexibility is key, as evenings and weekends are required for some donor meetings and community events, and occasional travel to the office or other areas in the Council jurisdiction will be required. Reliable transportation and a valid Florida driver's license are also necessary.
We offer an exceptional workplace culture and benefits package. Our team enjoys generous vacation time, paid summer and winter breaks, heavily subsidized medical and dental coverage, employer-paid life and disability insurance, Teladoc access, and a 401k plan with immediate employer match.
If you are ready to make an impact, apply today to become our Director of Philanthropy!
