About the role

The University of Arizona Foundation seeks an Associate Vice President for Development in Tucson, AZ. This senior fund-raising leader will develop and execute major gift strategies, cultivate high-level donors, and guide multiple college/unit fundraising programs to meet ambitious revenue targets. You will manage a portfolio of prospects, collaborate with university leadership, and drive donor engagement, stewardship, and fundraising initiatives across campus.

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.
