Director of Development – Foundation for Economic Education – Atlanta, GA or Virtual Office

Overview

FEE is the leader in inspiring high school and college students in their classrooms and online with sound economics, ethical principles and personal leadership to become tomorrow’s leaders, voters, educators, entrepreneurs, and parents to build a society founded on free market principles.

FEE has educated generations of leaders in the free-market movement, and alumni have become leaders in business, politics, media, and other centers of influence. Alumni include Ed Feulner, Charles Koch, Jack Kemp, Barry Goldwater Jr., and Ron Paul.

The Director of Development will join an active and dynamic team that has achieved an average of 20% annual growth over the last six years. The Director of Development will play a pivotal role in FEE’s success by developing and executing its strategic development plan. The Director will oversee a team of three and work closely with leadership to achieve fundraising success. The Director of Development will work closely with other FEE Directors to appraise feasibility of new initiatives, turn initiatives into funding proposals, and ensure that donor intent is met. 

The Director will work from FEE’s Atlanta headquarters. While we strongly prefer an in-house candidate, we will also consider exceptional candidates who need to work from a virtual office elsewhere.  A remote Director will be expected to visit the office on a regular basis to become fully integrated into the team. Regardless of location, the Director will need to travel regularly (approximately 20% of the time) to meet with donors, partners, etc.

Wait, You’re a Nonprofit?

Talent Market is a nonprofit. We’ll wait here while that sinks in. We know it’s a crazy concept, but it’s been working like a charm since 2009.

Talent Market’s mission is to promote liberty by providing talent for critical roles within the free-market nonprofit sector.

We provide free consulting and recruiting services to free-market think tanks, policy organizations, research centers, and capacity building institutions dedicated to advancing the principles of limited government and free enterprise. (We do not work in politics, nor do we work with organizations that address social issues.) Talent Market believes that the road to prosperity is paved with freedom and that the success of our movement hinges on the talent that will take us there.
