Reporting to the Senior Associate Vice President for Institutional Advancement, the Director partners closely with the President’s Office to ensure principal and major gift strategies are executed seamlessly and aligned with institutional goals. The Director provides leadership in project management, communications, and operational support that enable the President and advancement leaders to engage effectively with top prospects, donors, and stakeholders. This role also serves as a key connector across the university, coordinating with the President’s Office and working with senior leadership—including Vice President for Institutional Advancement, the Provost, deans, and other campus leaders—to align donor engagement with academic and institutional priorities. By bridging Institutional Advancement, the President’s Office, and academic leadership, the Director of Advancement Strategy and University Initiatives strengthens Temple University’s ability to engage top donors (Temple 150), secure transformational gifts, and advance strategic priorities. Success in this role will be measured by the timely preparation of briefings and reports for the President and advancement leadership, effective scheduling and flawless execution of donor meetings and events, visible progress toward fundraising goals through improved coordination and tracking, enhanced communication and alignment across university leadership, and consistent demonstration of initiative, professionalism, and strategic support.
