Advancement Director, West

Job Title: Advancement Director, West Department: Advancement Location: Remote (preferred within the Pacific Northwest) This position requires an ability to travel. Reports To: Managing Director, Major Gifts, West Context: At the Sierra Club, we believe in the power of interdependence. Together, we remain committed to the fight for a healthy climate built on a foundation of environmental, racial, economic, and gender justice – a future where all people benefit from a healthy, thriving planet and a direct connection to nature. As the climate crisis and deeply entrenched systemic racism all fuel injustice, we will continue to fight for a bold, transformational agenda that recognizes the interconnectedness between our planet, our humanity, and our future. By recognizing that our destinies are tied, we continue to name that all things are fundamentally connected, and the overlap between ecology, race, gender, and representative government will move to either advance our collective humanity or to oppress it. Sierra Club has close to 700 staff across the country and a network of 64 local chapters that are led and fueled by thousands of volunteers. We are also proud to be a unionized employer, with three labor unions representing more than half of our employees. Scope: This is an opportunity to join the Advancement team of the country’s leading grassroots environmental organization.

The Advancement Director will engage donors and prospects throughout the region via discovery, cultivation, engagement, solicitation and stewardship activities.
