The Development Assistant will assume responsibility for supporting The Discovery Museums’ annual giving and events program, and general Development Office operations. S/he will be a positive and professional representative of the Office and the Museums at all times, and be able to interact and work well with colleagues throughout the organization, volunteers, and donors. Key responsibilities of the position include: Administration of Altru database; Annual Fund mailing production, reporting, and support; logistical support for events; oversight of annual online auction and small-business sponsors program; general office management; and administrative support of the Chief Development Officer and CEO as needed. This position is full-time, but a flexible work schedule is possible for the right candidate.
