What We're Looking For Required A committed follower of Jesus Christ who is aligned with the mission and values of India Gospel League and respectful of believers across Christian traditions and theological backgrounds. At least two years of experience in donor services, nonprofit development, customer service, communications, administration, or a related field. Excellent written communication and editing skills. Warm and professional communication by phone, email, and mail. Strong attention to detail, especially with names, donor records, sponsorship information, commitments, and recurring deadlines. Strong organizational and follow-through skills. Ability to manage many small commitments and recurring processes without losing track of details. Comfort working with databases, spreadsheets, Microsoft Office, and everyday digital tools. Sound judgment when handling confidential donor information.

The Person We're Looking For You are organized, warm, dependable, and attentive to people . You notice the donor who still needs a thank-you, the sponsorship update that is due, the record that needs correcting, and the follow-up that has not yet happened — and you take satisfaction in making sure those details are handled well. You communicate clearly and personally. You can take a ministry report and help turn it into something a donor can understand and appreciate without losing the authenticity of the story. You also understand that donor relations is more than processing records. Every thank-you, update, sponsorship renewal, and personal interaction is an opportunity to help someone feel valued and more deeply connected to IGL's mission. If you enjoy combining relationship-building with strong organization and follow-through, this could be a very good fit.
