A global leader in combating antisemitism, countering extremism and battling bigotry wherever and whenever it happens, ADL works to protect democracy and ensure a just and inclusive society for all.

    • Serve as an active member of the regional fundraising team. Lead a culture of philanthropy in the region for both staff and board members, ensuring that both board and staff members understand their fundraising responsibilities, encourage meaningful giving from regional board members and partner with the Senior Director of Philanthropic Engagement (SDPE) and assigned development team members to implement a fundraising strategy to achieve the annual regional target. As the regional subject matter expert, the Regional Director is responsible for leveraging professional connections, effectively communicating ADL’s mission and impact through compelling stories and data, initiating and nurturing strategic partnerships for substantial funding opportunities and in partnership with development colleagues soliciting financial gifts to support all ADL fundraising campaigns. 
    • Recruit, engage, develop, and retain superior talent in the region, when necessary. Develop and maintain a culture that is consistent with ADL’s values and brings out the best in people, allowing them to perform at the highest possible level. 
    • Recruit, engage, and work with volunteer leaders, including members of the regional board and committees of the board (i.e., “volunteer leaders”) to support the revenue goals and activities of the region. Consistent with the regional by-laws, establish and implement guidelines for including lay leaders in regional activities and create appropriate training opportunities to ensure the effectiveness of lay leaders. 
    • Represent ADL in the public eye and give speeches in a variety of forums to promote public awareness of ADL’s mission, work, and programs. Respond to inquiries from the media and from members of the public, demonstrating authoritative knowledge of ADL’s policies and positions as relevant to local, national and world events. Read, monitor, and respond to media reports and opinion articles. Write and/or edit press releases, opinion pieces and social media posts on local issues in a manner consistent with ADL’s policies and principles. 
    • Promote visibility and leadership of ADL in the community. Establish and maintain relationships with appropriate community institutions and leaders, the Jewish community, legislators and government officials, media representatives, law enforcement personnel, and ethnic and interfaith group leaders. 
    • Develop and implement community outreach, including initiatives and joint ventures with elected officials, political leaders, business leaders and community figures. Build diverse interfaith and intergroup programs within the region.
