Singapore Asia Community Foundation Ltd. Full time

Development & Engagement Director

Build and implement donor development and fundraising efforts for ACF: unlocking greater philanthropic giving, connection of donors with nonprofit organisations, and scaling support for meaningful social impact work in Asia.

Asia Community Foundation (ACF) is an independent, trusted giving platform that catalyses funding at scale with informed, efficient grant-making for donors acting individually or collectively. Singapore-based, this charitable organisation supports individuals, families, and institutions as their trusted partner in purposeful philanthropy.

Established in 2022 by a group of philanthropists from Asia Philanthropy Circle, ACF was born out of the pressing need for a regional platform to facilitate cross-border giving in Asia. Our mission is to promote purposeful giving in Asia by connecting donors and nonprofits to achieve greater results than they could on their own. As a community, we believe that we can create positive change and address some of the most pressing socioeconomic and environmental issues facing Asia today.

ACF is looking for a candidate with excellent communications and interpersonal skills who is passionate about contributing to the social impact sector. Reporting to the CEO, the Development Director will spearhead donor development and fundraising efforts as ACF continues to grow and evolve. This includes identifying potential donors and partners, creating pipelines, cultivating relationships with individuals, banks and intermediaries, and working in collaboration with colleagues to guide donors through their giving process at ACF. As a lean, fast-paced start-up organisation, team members should expect to multitask in a flexible environment in order to thrive.

  • Identify potential prospects and secure financial support from individuals, foundations and corporations
  • Foster ongoing relationships with donors by working in consultative manner to understand needs and interests to strategically align ACF solutions
  • Build pipelines for new donors through participation in events, workshops, and leveraging partnerships with banks, intermediaries, other organisations
  • Communicate ACF's unique role and value in the philanthropy and social impact ecosystems
  • Manage and maintain system for tracking proposals and progress status for new donors
  • Create and execute strategies for donor expansion and funding diversification, including organisational fundraising
  • Oversee planning and organisation of special events to support prospect development, donor education and relationship building

  • Demonstrated success in client development, fundraising or related work
  • Excellent English language communications-written, oral and listening interpersonal, and relationship-building skills
  • Experience working, volunteering or serving on board positions with nonprofit organisations or knowledge of the social impact sector in Asia
  • Strong organisational skills and ability to self-start, make decisions and adjust to evolving situations
