efforts for gifts received by the SPH Advancement Office in the
Gillings School of Global Public Health, including detailed gift
reporting, processing, analysis, and creative strategy. Reporting
to the Senior Director of Annual Giving and Alumni Engagement, this
position is responsible for several key functions: Endowed fund
stewardship, donor recognition and engagement, stewardship plans,
and gift processing. This position develops stewardship strategies
and policies to ensure that donors receive substantive and

for the School’s Rosenau Society (a leadership giving society with
an average of 475 members annually). Additionally, this position
will be responsible for understanding current and future Federal
and state regulations as well as University policies as they relate
to scholarships, financial aid, and student information, including

matter expert to development officers and donors, helping them
understand these regulations and their impact on the information
shared during the stewardship process. Work Schedule 8:00 am – 5:00
