About Genspace
Genspace is the world’s first community biology lab — a place where people of all backgrounds can learn, create, and grow with the life sciences. Since 2009, we have served the greater New York area by providing hands-on STEAM education programs for adults and youth, cultural and outreach events for the public, and a membership program to support New York’s community of creatives, researchers, and entrepreneurs. Our programs demystify scientific processes, provide a platform for innovation, and cultivate the next generation of life sciences leaders in emerging global technologies, such as biotechnology, neuroscience, genomics, and many more.
Genspace has a small sized staff, with a large community of dedicated lab members, instructors, learners, youth, volunteers, community partners, and other supporters. Because we are such a small team, this position is an opportunity to wear many hats in a Development role.
Description
The Development Manager will work closely with Genspace’s Executive Director to create, administer and implement a long-term development plan that includes grants, private donations from individuals and companies, and other philanthropic contributions. The person in this position will also collaborate with Genspace staff, volunteers, and interns/fellows to develop and deliver the look, feel, and voice of Genspace across public-facing and fundraising-related platforms in order to achieve our mission and revenue goals. The Development Manager will work closely with Genspace staff to plan, prepare and deliver materials in support of fundraising activities (including, but not limited to, website and social media content, printed materials, digital communications, fundraising appeals, grant applications, and annual reports).
This is a full-time position, based in New York City but currently working remotely. Compensation for this position is commensurate with education and experience.
If you are excited about expanding access to STEAM education in nontraditional settings, please consider applying!
