    Director of Development
    Position Announcement


    Scion Executive Search (www.scionexecutivesearch.com) has been retained to conduct the search
    for a Director of Development for the Women’s Business Development Council (WBDC), a
    nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering women to thrive in business across the state of
    Connecticut.

    Over the past twenty-five years, WBDC has helped more than 18,000 women across 169 towns in
    Connecticut become successful entrepreneurs and business owners. WBDC’s services are in high
    demand, especially in light of the pandemic’s impact on local economies and businesses. The
    incoming Director of Development will lead fundraising efforts for the organization and work to
    expand unrestricted revenue to support team and program growth. This role will closely partner
    with the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to strengthen relationships with external stakeholders and
    donors across the state.

    This full-time opportunity is for immediate hire. The organization has moved to a hybrid model
    with two days in-office work and three days remote work. Some travel across the state is expected.

    This is an amazing leadership opportunity to work with a driven, highly motivated, and engaged
    team to provide the tools and resources to help women thrive in business.

    ABOUT WOMEN’S BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL (WBDC):


    Did you know? U.S. women-owned businesses are growing 5x the national average for all
    businesses. If U.S. women-owned businesses were their own country, they would have the 5th
    largest GDP in the world!

    WBDC is dedicated to supporting women in achieving economic equity through a multifaceted
    approach of education, funding, and professional development. With three offices across the
    state, WBDC has been leading entrepreneurial and financial trainings for women in Connecticut
    since 1997. WBDC’s connection to and impact on local businesses positioned them well to seize
    new opportunities and continue to play an important role in the post pandemic economic
    revitalization. Thanks to their driven and passionate team—the organization has ramped up
    trainings, services, and resources to meet rising business needs.

    POSITION OVERVIEW:

    Reporting to the Chief Operating Officer (COO) and working closely with the CEO, the incoming
    Director of Development will create and deploy a fundraising strategy to achieve WBDC’s strategic


    plan, including growing and diversifying sustainable funding streams for the organization and
    planning for WBDC’s upcoming 25th anniversary. Leveraging great relationship-building and
    prospect-cultivation skills, this role will have a heavily external-facing component; a key
    responsibility of the Director of Development will be to attract funders and other stakeholders to
    the work and impact of WBDC and seize on new opportunities and partnerships. WBDC is viewed
    as a specialist in business and economic policy across the state and is regularly called upon by
    members of the legislature and governor. Knowledge of the workings of municipal, state, and
    federal government and public policy, along with experience with government grants, will be
    essential to the incoming leader’s success in the first 6 months.

    The Director of Development will lead a team of three, including a Development Manager,
    Development/Marketing Assistant, and Grant Writer Consultant. Additionally, this incoming leader
    will manage vendor relations to include a long-time event fundraising consultant. WBDC’s current
    budget is close to $4M, and its revenue is primarily comprised of federal and state grants, event
    earnings and sponsorships, and individual donations. This role will work to diversify WBDC’s
    portfolio, focusing on areas of opportunity for the organization such as building out an individual
    giving program. This will require performing research and outreach to initiate and then cultivate
    new relationships, networks, and partnerships.

    RESPONSIBILITIES:

    The Director of Development is an integral member of WBDC’s leadership team and oversees all
    fundraising and development functions for the organization to include a diverse portfolio of
    revenue sources. This leader works closely with the CFO to ensure funding is identified and applied
    across organizational functions, and with the program team to ensure programmatic
    commitments are achieved. This individual works closely with the Board and the Board
    Development Committee to fundraise and educate the community about WBDC’s work and
    impact across the state of Connecticut.

    In addition to serving as the development and fundraising expert, this role will guide, motivate,
    and lead a cohesive and high-functioning development team, creating and improving processes
    along the way and ensuring each team member understands their impact on the organization’s
    mission.

    Responsibilities of this role include:

    • Overseeing all development efforts and partnering with senior management team
    members to ensure that overall organizational health and initiatives are prioritized.
    • Leading special fundraising projects and events; most pertinent: WBDC’s upcoming 25th
    anniversary.
    • Establishing fundraising/revenue generation goals tied to the organization’s strategic plan.
    • Directing innovative high-level fundraising efforts that enable the organization to raise
    significant gifts from new and existing prospects and donors.
    • Building out an individual giving program.

    • Leading a team of highly qualified development professionals and working to establish a
    donor-centric culture throughout the organization.
    • Managing day-to-day development operations and tracking the progress of critical
    fundraising, grant writing, event planning, and donor relation advancements.
    • Building on key external relations strategies, including relationship-building and

    communication efforts targeted towards individual, foundation, corporate, and
    government stakeholders.

    • Identifying and addressing areas of development improvement and needs by
    implementing strategic plans and programs.


    QUALIFICATIONS:

    WBDC is looking for a multifaceted, independent, driven, and passionate Director of Development
    who can diversify the organization’s revenue and position its budget for growth. The ideal
    candidate will be a great communicator and strategist, leveraging an entrepreneurial spirit to
    research, reach out to, and cultivate new relationships with new partners on behalf of the
    organization. Some of the qualifications for this role include:

    • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent development experience.
    • 5 years of leadership experience, holding progressively responsible positions in
    development, fundraising, sales, marketing, and/or communications.
