Development Coordinator | Asian Arts Initiative

Position Description Overview

Reporting to the Director of Development, the Development Coordinator supports the full range of Asian Arts Initiative’s fundraising activities, with a particular focus on development operations, donor data and analysis, individual giving and stewardship, grants administration, fundraising events, and volunteer coordination.

As part of a two-person Development team, the Development Coordinator works extensively within AAI’s Salesforce CRM to ensure Development data is accurate, complete, and useful; processes and acknowledges gifts; tracks donor and prospect engagement; coordinates grant deadlines and reporting requirements; supports individual giving campaigns and donor cultivation; and produces reports and analysis that inform fundraising strategy.

This position is well suited to an organized, detail-oriented development professional who enjoys working with data and systems as much as working with people. The successful candidate will be comfortable managing recurring processes independently, identifying gaps or inconsistencies, and helping develop more effective systems as AAI expands its fundraising program.

As a mission-driven, culturally specific community arts organization, AAI seeks a Development Coordinator who approaches fundraising and donor engagement in ways that reflect the organization’s commitment to racial equity, community, and the experiences of Asian American, BIPOC, immigrant, LGBTQ+, and historically marginalized communities.
