Job Description   The Washington National Opera (WNO) Assistant Manager of Individual Giving (AMIG) reports to WNO’s Director of Major Gifts (DMG) and is an essential member of the WNO Major Gifts team and the Kennedy Center Development department. The AMIG is charged with the retention, stewardship, and ongoing management of WNO’s Circles membership (donors who annually give between $1,800-$24,999), and the identification, cultivation, and acquisition of prospective Circles-level contributors. Donations from Circles patrons are a cornerstone of WNO’s annual contributed income goals, and the AMIG plays a crucial role in sustaining and growing this important base of support.  As a member of the Major Gifts team, the AMIG also plays a vital role in helping identify Circles members with Major Gifts-level capacity (contributions above $25,000), and through stewardship, cultivation, and collaboration with WNO’s DMG, Major Gifts Officers, WNO’s Managing Director of Advancement, and WNO’s Director of Individual Giving and Operations helps migrate such patrons into Major Gifts’ portfolios. The AMIG is the primary point-of-contact for WNO Circles donors, and as such, personally connects with these patrons in ways that makes their involvement with WNO as meaningful and enjoyable as possible. Through meetings, visits, phone calls, written communications, assistance at performances, and individualized concierge services, the AMIG is able to directly engage Circles members and develop trusted philanthropic relationships. Along with the entire WNO Development team, the AMIG is tasked with helping the Opera achieve its annual fundraising and special campaign goals through the cultivation and management of its Circles membership, and by participating in the development and implementation of the department’s strategic planning, campaigns, new initiatives as they arise, WNO’s annual gala, and donor/prospect cultivation events throughout the year. The WNO Development team is part of the larger Kennedy Center Development department, and as such, the AMIG works collaboratively with Center-wide colleagues, who assist each other in advancing their assigned goals while also helping to achieve results for the entire institution.  This is an excellent position for professional development.   Key Responsibilities The AMIG is responsible for overseeing the WNO Circles program by stewarding, soliciting, and identifying current and prospective Circles supporters, managing their philanthropic engagement, growth, and involvement, and encouraging and developing their appreciation for and enjoyment of the art form to enrich their opera-going experience and strengthen their financial commitment. The AMIG maintains a cyclical calendar for renewals and acquisitions, coordinating a multi-staged annual campaign that includes various forms of communications and engagement—letters, emails, phone calls, meetings, visits, curated opportunities to learn more about opera and WNO productions, socialization at performances, invitations to cultivation events. The AMIG is responsible for: creating or overseeing the creation of WNO Circles communications materials for renewals; documenting pledges and payments; drafting acknowledgement letters for WNO Circles donations; and, with colleagues, identifying and acquiring new members. The AMIG is expected to think strategically about such engagement, involving WNO leadership or Board members, when appropriate, in solicitations or gift acknowledgements to encourage donors’ enhanced involvement. The position must maintain clear, informative call reports, donor records, pledge payment schedules, gift histories, and strategic moves within the CRM system and through other appropriate means to ensure consistent stewardship, fulfillment of donor benefits, accurate recognition, and long-term engagement of this group of patrons. Through careful record-keeping, the AMIG ensures that WNO leadership and the Kennedy Center Finance Department have accurate accounting records of this group to inform financial projections and budgeting. When needed, the AMIG assists with prospect research of Circles members, helps the WNO Development team prepare donor profiles or presentations for major gifts solicitations, or provides collegial support to colleagues during deadlines. In addition to the AMIG’s primary focus on the Circles program, the position participates in WNO Major Gifts meetings and Kennedy Center-wide Development meetings, contributing to the broad strategic thinking of contributed income projections for the Opera and supporting WNO and Kennedy Center colleagues as needed to achieve shared goals. As part of the WNO Development team, the AMIG participates in the planning of WNO’s annual gala and is assigned duties prior to and during the event. These duties may include assisting with the development of lists, invitations, drafting guest profiles, and other duties as needed.
