Senior Director of Development

Fuel Our Mission. Drive Impact.

At Beyond Type 1, we’re on a mission to improve the lives of people impacted by diabetes.

This role is ideal for a passionate and experienced relationship-builder—someone who is comfortable engaging sophisticated audiences from C-suite executives to philanthropists, and who thrives on creating meaningful connections that build trust and inspire generosity. If you’re a strategic thinker energized by engaging donors, crafting campaigns, and turning possibility into impact, we’d love to meet you.

• Serve as a trusted advisor and relationship manager, creating tailored engagement opportunities that deepen donor commitment and loyalty.
• Collaborate with the Director of Strategic Partnerships and SVP, Growth and Partnerships to identify, cultivate, and solicit corporate donations where available through donor relationships—both in-kind and monetary—building a strong and sustainable corporate pipeline.

• Drive the development of a scaled recurring giving program, creating pathways for sustained support and deepened donor engagement.
• Provide leadership and support across organizational fundraising events, from honoree identification and outreach to high-level donor engagement.
• Partner with colleagues across Social Impact & Global Advocacy (SIGA) and Marketing teams to craft compelling donor-facing materials, cases for support, and event experiences.

You’ll Be a Great Fit If You...

• 7 years of progressive experience in fundraising, individual giving or major gifts
• Thrive in donor meetings and feel confident making the ask and have a track record securing six- or seven-figure gifts and built lasting donor relationships, especially with high-net worth individuals
