Job Description

About the Chief Advancement Officer & Executive Director, Catholic Legacy Foundation Opportunity The Chief Advancement Officer will serve as the Diocese of Nashville's senior development leader, responsible for providing strategic direction and hands-on leadership for the Diocese's philanthropic efforts. Reporting to the Chief Administrative Officer and working closely with the Bishop, the Chief Advancement Officer will lead efforts to strengthen major giving, develop donor relationships, improve development operations, and position the Diocese for continued philanthropic growth. This person will manage a small team to multiply impact and develop new development professionals in service to the diocese. This is a significant opportunity for an accomplished development professional who is energized by both building strategy and personally cultivating relationships.

The Foundation seeks to help Catholic individuals and organizations with permanent endowments, legacy gifts, and estate planning. The successful candidate will bring demonstrated experience growing major gifts, developing development strategy, managing and coaching teams, and collaborating effectively with executive leadership. Experience with Catholic fundraising, clergy, and development technology and CRM systems is particularly valuable. Above all, the Chief Advancement Officer must be excited to serve and support the Bishop's mission for the Diocese and advance the work of the Church.
