In this position, you will support Development operations by expertly providing for our CRM data needs and ensuring our generous donors receive appropriate and correct communications about their support and what it makes possible. You will build and maintain reports for a variety of mail and email distributions, monitor and evaluate the success of those distributions, and ensure our donation entry and acknowledgement is accurate. Effectively building reports in our instance of Salesforce will require an understanding of many interconnected objects and dozens of associated fields, so the ideal candidate will bring a strong foundation of CRM knowledge and an ability to apply that to our unique Salesforce set up.
