Vice-President, Growth and Engagement

We believe Canadians want to be part of something meaningful. When invited with clarity, creativity, and trust, they respond with generosity.

As VP, Growth & Engagement, you’ll be the architect of that invitation — building the strategies, stories, and systems that inspire thousands more Canadians to join the journey of community transformation. This is an executive leadership role with real ambition behind it. — growing monthly giving revenue, increasing the annual number of givers and maintaining an industry leading donor retention rate across all segments.

ABOUT THE JOB

As a member of the Executive Leadership Team, you’ll lead a multi-disciplinary team spanning fundraising, marketing, communications, and public engagement. You’ll partner across departments, drive organizational strategy and culture, advocate for your team’s resources and development, and serve as a public face for the organization. This is a role for someone who is as comfortable shaping strategy in the boardroom as they are inspiring a major donor over coffee.

Fundraising & Revenue Growth

• Provide strategic oversight for a comprehensive fundraising program — acquiring, cultivating, acknowledging, and upgrading donors across all giving levels – driven by a thriving monthly giving program, compelling donor offers, and bold acquisition strategies that grow both revenue and loyalty.

Public Engagement & Communications

• Ensure every FH Canada supporter experience — from first touch to long-term relationship — is positive, inclusive, and compelling.
• Support internal teams with visual design and content tools, protecting the brand while helping colleagues achieve their goals.
• Serve as an organizational spokesperson and ensure compliance with Cooperation Canada’s code of ethics and anti-racism framework.

Leadership & Team Development

• Foster a healthy, inclusive, and mission-aligned department through cross-functional collaboration and open communication.

• Bachelor’s degree in a related field required; Master’s preferred (nonprofit management, marketing, or communications). Commensurate experience will be considered.
