** Senior Director of Development, ASU Health-Foundations
** The ASU Foundation (ASUF) fosters partnerships between ASU and like-minded individuals, corporations and foundations who believe in ASU’s mission and provide resources for ASU to manifest its charter into meaningful impact.
The Senior Director of Development is a senior fundraising professional focused on securing transformational philanthropic support from institutional and family foundations for ASU Health. Working across the six ASU Health units, this role designs and executes strategies to identify, qualify, cultivate, solicit, and steward foundation donors for cross-unit initiatives and high-priority programs. The Senior Director partners with unit-based development leads, deans, faculty, and foundation leadership to build new funder relationships, develop compelling cases for support around shared ASU Health priorities (e.g., women’s health, brain health, food is medicine, healthcare delivery, indigenous health), and position ASU Health in the national philanthropic landscape, with the goal of materially expanding the pipeline of seven- and eight-figure foundation gifts.##
