About Fistula Foundation
An estimated one million women in Africa and Asia suffer from obstetric fistula, a debilitating childbirth injury that leaves a woman incontinent and, as a result, too often abandoned by her family and shunned by her community. We are in business to end this needless suffering. Surgery is the only cure, which we deliver through partners in more than 20 countries.
Over the last decade we have emerged as the global leader in fistula treatment, treating more women in more places than even the United Nations or the US government. We are raising four times as much money as we were a decade ago and treating 15 times as many women. But, we are far from done and we need the help of a talented and driven development leader to help us end fistula in a generation.
True to our Silicon Valley roots, Fistula Foundation is dynamic and growth oriented. We pride ourselves on being run like a successful financially disciplined for-profit organization; the big difference is our bottom line is measured not in earnings per share or profit, but in the number of women we are able to help. It also means that we "lean hard" into technology and the efficiencies it brings, enabling us to do more with fewer resources. Fistula Foundation is committed to delivering results against our mission and aspires to the values of the Effective Altruism movement.
We have the dynamism of a lean start-up team with the stability of a mature organization, including a $14M reserve, which includes a nearly $8M endowment. Our supporters love to share stories about how we have touched their lives, as seen in 675 five-star stories on GreatNonprofits.org. We have 13 years of 4-star Charity Navigator ratings, along with a consistent "A" from Charity Watch. And we have earned the recognition of high-profile leaders including Pulitzer Prize winner Nicholas Kristof, Grammy winner Paul Simon, and internationally renowned ethicist Peter Singer.
We seek an experienced and ambitious development leader to partner closely with the CEO on short-term and long-term organizational strategy, especially strategic direction of our successful development team. The new Senior Vice President of Development will serve as a key member of our senior leadership team, providing direction and coordination for a comprehensive fundraising program that secures new financial resources from all donor segments, including major donors. Our ideal candidate brings creativity and drive to improve donor retention and increase donor value to grow a thriving development program.

We want our employees to have soft hearts but tough minds. We celebrate the successes of our team and our partners. We value creativity and passion for our mission, while encouraging our teammates to live healthy lives.
We offer a generous, comprehensive benefits package, including health insurance, a 403b match, and a significant vacation plan that begins in Year 1. We offer a competitive salary with potential for performance-based bonuses and opportunities for advancement.
