Junior League of Raleigh:  Development Director

The Junior League of Raleigh is searching for a superstar, and you or someone you know may be just the person they are looking for!  The Junior League of Raleigh (JLR) is a community-driven, mission-focused organization with a commitment to promoting voluntarism, developing leaders and improving the community.

The Development Director plays the lead role in JLR's fundraising efforts. This professional position requires a candidate with vision, integrity and the ability to motivate the League’s volunteer force of over 1,800 women for the success of the organization. This person must be a strategic thinker who develops and implements the League’s immediate and long-term fundraising plan. The Development Director at the JLR also serves as the primary fundraising spokesperson in Raleigh. While the fundraising and communications goals and programs at the JLR remain relatively constant, the volunteer leadership (President and Council) changes each year. Therefore, the Development Director must be flexible and responsive in working with different leaders on an annual basis.
