Reporting directly to the Executive Director, the Director of Advancement is responsible for leading NCTV17’s fundraising efforts through major gifts, annual giving, grants, corporate partnerships, and special events in order to strengthen the organization’s long-term financial sustainability. This is a hands-on role within a small nonprofit where success requires both strategic thinking and day-to-day execution. The successful candidate won’t inherit a large advancement department—they’ll help build one. Success will be measured not only by revenue growth, but by the strength of the donor relationships, fundraising systems, and culture of philanthropy they help create across the organization.

The Finance & Programs Coordinator plays a central role in supporting the Foundation’s core operations, including gift processing, grantmaking, and internal coordination. The position provides high-quality administrative and operational support to both the Finance and Programs teams, helping ensure accuracy, timeliness, and an excellent experience for Foundation constituents and community partners. The ideal candidate is highly organized, detail-oriented, and dependable, with strong interpersonal and communication skills, and knowledgeable with spreadsheets and data management.

The Executive Office & Advancement Coordinator provides high-level administrative and coordination support to the Executive Office and Advancement team. The role requires strong organizational skills, sound judgment, and the ability to manage competing priorities effectively with discretion and professionalism. The ideal candidate will play a key role in supporting leadership effectiveness, constituent engagement and stewardship, and the smooth execution of internal operations. This individual will work closely with the President & CEO, Vice President for Advancement, and the Director of Executive Operations & Planning, from whom they will receive day-to-day direction on Executive Office priorities.

The Senior Development Associate (SDA) is a key member of CBO's small, growing team, working in close, day-to-day partnership with the Executive Director (ED). This role exists to bring real operational relief to the ED — owning the systems, data, and administrative backbone of CBO's fundraising system so that the ED can spend more time as the face of the organization, in front of donors and partners. The SDA will take ownership of CBO's development operations: making sense of and maintaining the existing donor database (Raiser's Edge), managing gift processing and acknowledgment, and building the calendars, dashboards, and workflows that let the development function run smoothly and scale. Grant writing, funder relationships, and renewal strategy are managed by CBO's fractional grants consultant in partnership with the ED; major individual donor relationships are led directly by the ED. This role is built to make both of those efforts more effective — through clean data, sharp logistics, and reliable follow-through — not to own the strategy or the relationships themselves. This is a strong opportunity for someone with roughly 2–3 years of professional experience — ideally with a track record of owning outputs and deadlines, and with hands-on comfort with systems or data — who is detail-oriented, positive, coachable, and energized by bringing order and momentum to a mission they believe in. A deep belief in the potential of first-generation college students is a must.
