Job Description

ABOUT THE ROLE

We're on a mission to end the global housing crisis. Not with handouts, but by helping families in emerging markets buy land with utilities and title, and actually own their homes. This isn't just about shelter; it's about building lasting wealth for generations in thriving communities.

Since 2015, we've raised over $100M in philanthropy and $15M+ in private investment. We strategically combine these resources to achieve outcomes that neither could accomplish alone. It's how we actually make things happen.

As a Philanthropy Officer here, you'll be key to fueling our engine with philanthropy dollars. You'll work directly to nurture the folks already backing us and find new ones. You won't be flying solo. Our CEO, senior leaders, and the sharp minds in our Marketing and Comms team will be right there with you, helping you with prospect qualification, putting together local and international events, and compelling content to engage donors.

Your main focus will be cultivating and growing The Builders program. These are high net worth individuals, family foundations, donor-advised funds, and corporate sponsors who commit $50,000+ a year for multiple years. Their money isn't for a one-off project; it covers our daily operations, R&D, and our core work helping communities get on their feet. Simply put, The Builders give us the breathing room to innovate, grow, and help more families truly own their future.

If you want to be part of a story creating sustainable and efficient change for vulnerable communities and families, we welcome you to apply. Read our CEOs recent article on our innovative funding and model here.

WHERE YOU'LL FOCUS

Raise $1.5M in total annual revenue from a portfolio of renewals, new, and lapsed donors

Cultivate a Builders portfolio of 25 current donors and achieve 75%+ annual retention.

Close 6 Builder opportunities from new or lapsed donors

Generate new prospects through lead generation activities such as network cultivation, event attendance, research, etc.

Follow a metrics-driven strategy with complete and accurate CRM records to support your numbers

Learn and grow into an expert on New Story’s strategy, model, results, and impact

Work with our Marketing and Communication team to plan and execute cultivation and stewardship experiences and events for the Builders throughout the year, including international vision trips

ABOUT NEW STORY

New Story unleashes market forces to confront the global housing crisis.
