Chief Development Officer

The Aga Khan Museum is a unique global museum located in Toronto, Canada, dedicated to showcasing the artistic, intellectual, and scientific heritage of Muslim civilizations and their interconnectedness with the world at large.

Its mission is to foster a greater understanding and appreciation of the achievements and contributions of Muslim civilizations, fostering intercultural dialogue and pluralism through exhibitions, public programs, and educational initiatives onsite and online.

Its opening in 2014 signalled a new chapter in the history of museums in North America as the first dedicated to the arts of Muslims civilizations.  With its landmark building, designed by the Pritzker Prize–winning architect Fumihiko Maki, and its setting within the landscaped gardens of the Aga Khan Park, the Museum celebrates the arts in all its forms – from the visual to the performing arts.

THE OPPORTUNITY
The Aga Khan Museum (AKM) is seeking a mission-driven, results-oriented, and collaborative Chief Development Officer (CDO) to provide strategic leadership and operational expertise for the fundraising efforts of the Museum to further advance its mission to foster greater understanding of Muslim civilizations, and to connect cultures through art.

Reporting to the Museum’s Director and CEO, the CDO will be a member of, and contributor to, the Senior Leadership Team and will have active support from a strong network of global senior volunteers who serve on the Board of Directors and fundraising committees of the Museum.

The CDO will be an accomplished and passionate fundraising professional who will champion and lead the growth and elevation of a sustainable fundraising plan targeted to raise $12-$15M annually, overseeing the management and cultivation of donors and sponsors, the identification and submission of grant applications to government agencies and foundations, the planning of fundraising, cultivation, and stewardship events, and the growth of the museum membership program.  In addition to this, the planning and implementation of a multi-year $150M endowment campaign is one of the key deliverables of the position. For the purposes of context, currently 4,000 Museum supporters contribute approximately $9 million per annum. These include more than 30 donors who have donated above $0.5M.

Carrying a personal portfolio of the Museum’s key donors and prospects in Canada and around the world, the CDO will be a fearless and highly proactive networker and fundraiser in their own right. The CDO will actively and frequently leverage key volunteers and board members in the identification, cultivation, and solicitation of donors, members, partners, and sponsors in Canada and abroad, in support of the Museum’s priorities.

The CDO will be the primary staff lead for the Board’s Development and Fundraising Committee and will work closely with the Board of Directors of the Museum in all fundraising matters.  As a skilled enabler of volunteers, the CDO will encourage and inspire volunteers to open doors and will provide support locally and internationally to maximize their passion, time, and connections most effectively.

A role model who demonstrates inclusive leadership, collaboration, respect, and excellence, the CDO will harness the strengths of a Development team of 10, motivating the staff to new heights of achievement.  Establishing clear goals and understanding the tactics and processes needed to achieve them, the CDO will engender confidence in, and enthusiasm for, the fundraising team’s efforts by demonstrating exceptional results.  

Passionate about equity and inclusion, the CDO will possess intercultural competence, understanding the unique nuances and perspectives of various cultures and expand support for the Museum through outreach and engagement with multiple communities in Canada and around the world.

This is a permanent, full-time position and will be based in the Aga Khan Museum at 77 Wynford Drive, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.  As of mid-April 2022 and for the rest of 2022, the museum will be working within a hybrid model with staff expected to be present in the office for a minimum of 3 days per week (with flexibility for donor-facing commitments and travel, of course). There will be significant travel in this role (regionally, nationally, and internationally) and candidates must possess a valid passport.

ABOUT THE AGA KHAN MUSEUM
Honouring the spirit of collaboration and pluralism upon which the Museum is built, the Aga Khan Museum is deeply committed to both forging relationships with Canadian institutions and communities, and to driving an international mandate. It maintains strong global ties with such institutions as the Musée du Louvre in Paris, the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, and the Museum of Islamic Art in Doha, Qatar.

As a vibrant educational institution, the Museum encourages the full spectrum of public engagement with its diverse and distinguished Permanent Collection of more than 1,200 objects and its ever-changing roster of exhibitions and innovative public and educational programs onsite and online — including music and dance performances, talks, workshops, and a wide range of school and academic initiatives for students and teachers locally and around the world. By connecting cultures through the arts and fostering pluralism through the arts, the Aga Khan Museum is now reaching and impacting hundreds of thousands of people each year, in its Wynford site location in Toronto and through its virtual #Museum without Walls, which reached over 5M in 2021 alone.  The new virtual Aga Khan Museum has emerged with a robust and compelling online presence, featuring virtual performances, 3D tours, educational and children’s programs. This ambitious virtual platform allows people from all over the world to access the resources and offerings of the Museum, while providing innovative and diverse opportunities for philanthropic giving.

The Aga Khan Museum is part of the Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN). Founded and chaired by His Highness the Aga Khan, the AKDN is a private, international, non-denominational development organization that works to improve living conditions and opportunities for people in the developing world. His Highness is the 49th hereditary Imam (spiritual leader) of the Shia Ismaili Muslims, and has received honourary citizenship from Canada.

DEVELOPMENT AT THE AGA KHAN MUSEUM
The Aga Khan Museum relies on the generosity of donors and members in Canada and around the globe to sustain its vision of building bridges between cultures and fostering pluralism through the arts.

Donations from individuals, corporations, government and foundation grants directly support the activities of the Aga Khan Museum, necessary to maintain our exceptional Permanent Collection and sustain its roster of exhibitions, public programs, performances, educational events and virtual Museum.

His Highness the Aga Khan invested generously to construct the Museum and provide the Permanent Collection as an engine and launch pad for our intercultural art initiatives, and we continue to benefit from annual operating grants from the Aga Khan Foundation. While this solid base of support is critical for the Museum’s operations, the community plays an important role in supporting our ongoing efforts to build bridges and strengthen global community ties.

The department is strongly supported in its fundraising efforts by members of the Museum’s Board of Directors and a global volunteer network of fundraisers.

TPM produces theatre that is provocative, subversive, and joyful, supporting and presenting independent artists and companies, emerging artists, and marginalized voices; modeling new approaches to creation, collaboration, production, and stewardship; providing mentorship, expertise, space, and opportunities; and enhancing and increasing meaningful interactions among our communities.

TPM aspires to be a leader in establishing, promoting, and embracing collaborative and inclusive theatre practices, allowing us to support and ignite the voices of unique artists, communities, and audiences.

Throughout the pandemic, TPM has adapted, swiveled, and pivoted in order to support its mission.  Organizationally, TPM has shown innovation and resilience, creating new processes and gaining capacity to inspire and empower the company into the future.  Strategic conversations on “Staging Change,” a Metcalf Foundation program, has helped TPM define its need for a balanced and healthy environment for artists and administrative staff to support the most innovative theatrical work in Canada.  TPM celebrates diversity in all its forms.
