Join Our Team!
As Los Angeles’ premier provider of high-quality capacity building services for nonprofits, each year, Executive Service Corps of Southern California (ESC) helps more than 125 nonprofit clients work towards their missions through accessible coaching and consulting by trained executive-level volunteers. Our vision is to see successful nonprofits making our community an extraordinary place in which all can thrive.
ESC’s work environment is supportive, collaborative and exciting, and dedicated to high standards and professional growth. We are committed to creating a thriving work culture that is reflective of the diverse, equitable, inclusive, and anti-racist world in which we want to live. And because our work and the organizations we serve are deeply rooted in values that advance racial equity and social justice, we also aspire to actively reflect and root ourselves in these values throughout ESC.
Director, Development
ESC seeks a senior fundraising leader to serve as Director, Development, with strategic oversight of communications. This role is primarily responsible for leading, scaling, and executing ESC’s comprehensive fund development strategy, with a strong emphasis on institutional and individual giving, including engagement of ESC’s 110+ volunteer consultants who are key champions and supporters of the mission. Fundraising planning, management, and execution is the first and foremost priority for this role.
The Director, Development builds and leads a high‑performing development function, encompassing fundraising strategy, donor cultivation, team leadership, and revenue growth. Oversight of communications is secondary.
The Director provides strategic leadership and oversight of communications and does not perform day‑to‑day execution. The day-to-day aspects of Communications are primarily performed by a fractional Senior Advisor, Communications (contractor) and the Manager, Development & Communications.
ESC is particularly interested in candidates whose primary professional identity is senior‑level fundraising leadership and who have held direct responsibility for revenue growth, portfolio development, and managing development functions or teams.
