Location: The office is located in Nashville, TN; the role is expected to be US-based but could be a remote position with travel as needed.

Preferred: Nashville, TN; Washington, DC; New York, NY; or Chicago, IL

1. Purpose of the Position:

Generations For Peace (GFP) is a leading global peacebuilding organization founded in 2007 and headquartered in Amman, Jordan, with a network of 20,000+ volunteers and presence in 51 countries around the world, including the United States. Our mission is to empower youth to lead and cascade sustainable change in their communities experiencing conflict through world-class free education in conflict transformation and the use of sport, art, advocacy, dialogue, empowerment and media for peacebuilding.

Generations For Peace Inc. is GFP’s US entity (GFP USA), registered as a 501(c)3 nonprofit since 2012. GFP USA advances GFP’s mission in the United States through programming, thought leadership and fundraising efforts engaging American audiences. We have been steadily growing in the USA since 2019, when we opened our first US offices and began programs in Chicago.

GFP USA is currently a small team with ambitious plans for growth and impact in the coming year. We provide a unique opportunity to be part of both a start-up environment in the USA and a well-resourced and respected international NGO with a global track record. We are looking for talented and passionate people to join us in writing the next chapter in GFP USA’s story. We believe a more just and peaceful world is possible now and for future generations, and we desire to advance diversity, equity, inclusion and justice through all of our work, including our approaches to fundraising.

The Senior Development Officer is a newly created position to advance fundraising within GFP USA, with opportunities for leadership and innovation. The Senior Officer will be responsible for creating and implementing strategies to identify, cultivate, solicit and steward GFP donors in the USA through a variety of traditional and innovative approaches, both real-world and online, such as appeals, campaigns, events, grants, annual funds, major gifts, corporate giving, and board and ambassador engagement, among others. Although the Senior Development Officer will be responsible for engaging a range of donors in the USA, a special emphasis will be placed on increasing and diversifying GFP’s unrestricted support from individuals, foundations and corporations through an annual fund, major gift program and foundation and corporate giving.

Reporting to the US Representative, the Senior Development Officer should be proactive and passionate about fundraising for GFP’s mission and vision for a more just and peaceful world. Their approaches should be grounded in community-centric fundraising values of equity and justice. Our ideal candidate has had exposure to a sophisticated fundraising “shop” with a major gift program, annual fund, and foundation and corporate giving, and is excited to apply their knowledge and skills to build something new with GFP USA. They should be able to exponentially grow our network of supporters, sustainably multiplying our peacebuilding impact in the US and globally, and helping ensure we stay strategic and focused along the way.
