The Aspen Leadership Group is proud to partner with Miami
University in the search for an associate vice president of
development, corporate and foundation relations.
Reporting to the senior associate vice president for University
Advancement, the associate vice president of development for
corporate and foundation relations will manage the office of
corporate and foundation relations. In particular, the associate
vice president will focus on planning, organizing and implementing
strategies to increase the level of engagement and maximize the
philanthropic support of Miami’s top corporate and foundation
prospects and donors. To succeed, it is critical that the associate
Vice President coordinate with the senior team in University
Advancement, the president and other campus partners to develop and
execute strategies designed to increase all measures of support
from this important constituency.
The corporate and foundation relations area is considered a
significant growth area for Miami and has the full endorsement of
the president and the senior university leadership. The
university’s strength in areas such as engineering, computation,
biosciences, the social sciences, and business make it an
attractive funding partner. The greater Cincinnati area serves as
the home for several engaged corporate citizens like The Kroger
Company, Procter and Gamble, and Fifth Third Bank. Developing
university-wide strategies for corporations like these as well as
for local and national foundations will enable Miami to maximize
their philanthropic support.

States in the category of "Strong Commitment to Undergraduate
Teaching." Only 19 national universities are noted for such
commitment. Miami has appeared on this short, elite list since the
inaugural year of the rankings in 2009 and has been in the top
three among public universities for six years in a row.
A bachelor degree is required for this position as is seven to ten
years of fundraising or related experience. An equivalent
combination of education and experience may be considered.
