Director of Development

THE OPPORTUNITY

The Aga Khan Museum is seeking a Director of Development to provide strategic fundraising leadership and operational expertise to the Museum’s development activities.  This is an exceptional opportunity for a dynamic and seasoned fundraising professional to increase donor support for this unique cultural institution dedicated to sharing the artistic, intellectual, and scientific contributions that Muslim civilizations have made to world heritage.

Reporting to the Director & CEO and serving as a member of the senior leadership team, the Director will work closely with Museum colleagues and Board members as well as senior volunteers and peers from across the Aga Khan Development Network.  The Director of Development will be the Museum’s chief development officer and will be accountable for an annual fundraising target of $6.5 million in 2016, growing to at least $10 million per year within five years.  Leading a team of nine development staff and supported by dedicated volunteers, the Director of Development will oversee the management and cultivation of donors and sponsors, grant applications, donor events, the Museum’s membership program, and an endowment campaign.

Our donors and 13,000+ members come from across the country and around the world. Candidates must therefore be willing to travel locally, nationally, and internationally.

ABOUT THE AGA KHAN MUSEUM

Opened in September 2014, the Aga Khan Museum in Toronto, Canada offers visitors a window into worlds unknown or unfamiliar: the artistic, intellectual, and scientific heritage of Muslim civilizations across the centuries from the Iberian Peninsula to China.  Our mission is to foster a greater understanding and appreciation of the contribution that Muslim civilizations have made to world heritage, and to connect cultures through art.

Honouring the spirit of collaboration upon which the Museum is built, the Aga Khan Museum is deeply committed to both forging relationships with Canadian institutions and communities, and to preserving 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 exhibitions, live arts programming, and diverse Permanent Collection of more than 1,000 objects dating from the 8th to the 21st centuries.

Current exhibitions at the Aga Khan Museum include Abbas Kiarostami: Doors Without Keys, the work of acclaimed photographer, poet, and filmmaker Abbas Kiarostami and A City Transformed: Images of Istanbul Then and Now.  Recent exhibitions include Home Ground: Contemporary Art from the Barjeel Art Foundation, which showcased 12 Arab artists exploring themes of identity and belonging, and A Thirst for Riches: Carpets from the East in Paintings from the West, which paired 17th-century Dutch and Flemish paintings with Eastern textiles from the same period.  Innovative performing arts programs promote creativity and the sharing of ideas, enabling artists to inspire audiences through Showcase Performances, classes and workshops, films, panel discussions, lectures, as well as public jam sessions.

The Aga Khan Museum is part of the Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN).  Founded and chaired by His Highness the Aga Khan, 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

In addition to revenue from memberships, admissions and commercial activities, the Aga Khan Museum relies on the generosity of donors to sustain its vision of building bridges between cultures through the arts.  This support helps to promote the understanding and appreciation of the beauty of the arts of Muslim civilizations and knowledge of their contributions to world heritage.

Donations from individuals, corporate support, and 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, education programs, performances, and events.

Fundraising is critical to the establishment and growth of the Museum. Our target is for fundraising to contribute at least 50% of the total revenue.

Self-directed and disciplined, the new incumbent will thrive working independently while being a contributing team member.  Highly organized and pragmatic, the Director of Development will have demonstrated competency in respectfully managing expectations, focusing on priorities and tactically utilizing organizational resources.  The Director must be a flexible multi-tasker who is comfortable with ambiguity, and who will put systems and processes in place to ensure that our Development operations run effectively and efficiently.  The ideal candidate’s exceptional communications skills will be demonstrated by listening, seeking input, and evaluating information.

The successful candidate will be effective at leveraging the Museum’s global connections to increase and broaden support for the Museum.  The Director of Development will possess a strong understanding of the philanthropic landscape in the Greater Toronto Area, and will have knowledge of and insight regarding the charitable environment across Canada.  As well, the ideal candidate will understand the unique nuances and perspectives of various cultures and expand support for the Museum through outreach and engagement with multiple communities.
