The Hill School is seeking to hire a Director of The Hill Fund and Reunion Giving. Founded in 1851 as The Family Boarding School, The Hill School is a coeducational independent boarding and day school for students in grades 9-12 and post-graduates. This highly selective preparatory school is located in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, about 35 miles northwest of Philadelphia. The Hill School completed The Strength of All campaign on June 30, 2023. than $181 million was raised over eight years. The Director of The Hill Fund and Reunion Giving will play a key role in the next campaign scheduled to begin in 2026.
Reporting to the Assistant Head of School for Advancement, the Director of The Hill Fund and Reunion Giving is responsible for designing, implementing, managing, and coordinating a comprehensive annual and reunion program that supports the School’s operating budget with primarily unrestricted gifts. The annual giving program will be a combination of external donor visits with significant Hill Fund donors, an appeal program (digital and direct mail) that reaches the Hill constituency far and wide, as well as an annual giving stewardship program that explains and demonstrates gift impact while encouraging donor retention. The reunion giving program roots in a reunion committee structure that asks class members to determine a class gift, its goal, and then peer to peer solicitation and engagement.
Qualified candidates will possess a minimum of three years of experience, preferably in independent schools or higher education (or a comparably complex organization), in annual/reunion/parent giving and/or major giving. The incumbent must have the knowledge and ability to create, execute and oversee a comprehensive School-wide annual giving plan, including advising on complex and carefully orchestrated appeals and external outreach for the School’s Hill Fund and Parent Fund donors. The successful candidate must have the ability to think strategically and generate creative solutions for soliciting/retaining annual giving donors to advance the School’s efforts to grow unrestricted annual giving. The ideal candidate will have a clear understanding and deep appreciation of the mission, values, and traditions of an independent school. Bachelor’s degree required, advanced degree (i.e. MA, MBA, JD or professional certifications such as

CFRE, CAP, CFP

preferred). Must be willing and able to travel regionally with occasional evening and weekend event duties.
The Hill School offers a competitive salary, excellent benefits package, and generous retirement plan. For a complete Position Description and additional information on The Hill School, please visit our website at lambertassoc.
