About the role

The Jewish Federations of North America seeks a Director of Planned Giving based in San Jose, California. This role involves developing and implementing a comprehensive development plan, managing donor relationships, and overseeing fund types to support community needs. Candidates should have at least seven years of non-profit experience with strong fundraising skills, interpersonal abilities, and a commitment to Jewish values. This full-time position may require working some evenings and weekends.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
