Wellspring is seeking an experienced Senior Director of Philanthropy and Partnerships in Canada to fill a critical new fundraising leadership role designed to sustain and grow the organization’s annual operating budget.

The Senior Director will lead the fundraising team by example, personally managing a significant portfolio of major donors, foundations and strategic partners, while building a disciplined, high performing culture focussed on donor retention, revenue growth and measurable results, infused with Wellspring’s organizational values.

If you are looking to join a dynamic, cross-cultural organization that is passionate about transforming the lives of children and youth through education, this may be the opportunity for you. We are seeking a highly driven, creative, and entrepreneurial fundraiser, and a true people person who instinctively aligns with our new organizational values and faith. Working closely with our wider global team, you will craft and drive a comprehensive fundraising strategy designed to uplift and stabilise our revenue generation. As a member of the global leadership team, you will lead a small, dedicated development team and personally secure high-value gifts from individuals, corporates, and foundations.
