About the role

The Cancer Research Institute (CRI) in New York City is seeking a Major Gifts Officer to lead the Donor program for the NYC region, raising resources to accelerate immunotherapy research. You will manage a 100–150 donor portfolio, design engagement strategies, collaborate with executives, and work with program and finance teams to craft proposals and reports. This hybrid NYC office role offers competitive benefits and a base salary between $150k and $175k per year.

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.
