Our Atlanta office is looking for our next Director to significantly grow financial support for AIPAC and pro-Israel candidates.

Summary:
Directors make a direct impact on strengthening the U.S.–Israel relationship in three ways:

1. by cultivating and increasing the political commitments of existing AIPAC members,
2. by increasing the financial support to AIPAC from existing members, and
3. by inspiring pro-Israel Americans to join as significant financial supporters of AIPAC, including directly supporting pro‑Israel Members of Congress and candidates.

A successful Director has a proven track record in sales, client relations, political fundraising, or another field that showcases your ability to build strong relationships, close deals, and grow revenue.

Job Duties & Responsibilities

The Director will be measured against effective execution of the following tasks and responsibilities:

• Create and execute a development plan aimed at increasing support for pro-Israel political candidates and growing AIPAC’s revenue through high‑level solicitations, donor cultivation, and stewardship.
• Build and sustain strong, personal relationships with current high‑level donors in your portfolio and inspire them to increase their investment in our work to strengthen the U.S.–Israel relationship.
• Identify, cultivate, and solicit new donors to commit significant resources toward pro-Israel candidates and AIPAC.
• Solicit current AIPAC donors to fulfill their political commitments on behalf of pro-Israel candidates and Members of Congress.
• Meet quarterly and annual retention, upgrade, and acquisition goals for pro-Israel politics and AIPAC.
• Identify, recruit, and develop lay leadership for local political leadership roles.
• Provide timely political and policy updates that inform and inspire people to become more involved in pro-Israel politics and AIPAC.
• Maintain and update Salesforce CRM to ensure the most accurate and timely information is included, including campaign projects and logging individual activities/communications and meetings.

Qualifications/Skills:

• Intense passion for a strong U.S.–Israel relationship and commitment to AIPAC’s mission.
• Bachelor’s degree or commensurate experience.
• Minimum of 5 years of work experience in political fundraising, sales, fundraising, or a related field, with a successful track record of achieving and exceeding goals.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
• Ability to prioritize many different projects simultaneously across several teams within the region.
• A collaborative personal style.
• Knowledge of Middle East current events.

AIPAC is offering a competitive market base salary between $100,000.00 and $150,000.00 for the position. A job offer within the range will depend on how closely a candidate’s skills and experience match the role’s requirements. AIPAC also offers a competitive and comprehensive benefits package that contributes to employees’ overall total compensation package. We currently work remotely two days a week and in our offices the other three. AIPAC is an equal-opportunity employer.
