ORGANIZATION SUMMARY
World Relief is a global Christian humanitarian organization whose mission is to boldly engage the world’s greatest crises in partnership with the church. The organization was founded in the aftermath of World War II to respond to the urgent humanitarian needs of war-torn Europe. Since then, for 80 years, across 100 countries, World Relief has partnered with local churches and communities to build a world where families thrive and communities flourish.
Today, organizational programming focuses on humanitarian and disaster response, community strengthening and resilience, and refugee & immigrant services and advocacy.
This position is reliant upon funding and may be subject to modification or termination based on resource availability.
POSITION SUMMARY:
The Director of Principal and Planned Gifts will be a seasoned, strategic, and collaborative fundraising professional who plays a critical role in advancing the organization’s philanthropic goals. Reporting to the Senior Director of Partnership, this individual will develop and execute strategies to build long-term relationships with donors capable of making transformational contributions—both through immediate principal gifts and future-oriented planned gifts. This dual role requires a deep understanding of donor motivations, gift vehicles, and tax-advantaged philanthropic planning. The Director will partner with legal, finance, and external advisors as needed to craft customized giving plans. Additionally, the Director may offer coaching and thought partnership to colleagues across the Strategic Engagement Team, particularly with the team of Strategic Partnership Directors, to elevate and expand the organization's capacity to close both current-use and planned gifts at the highest levels.
