This person will manage the full lifecycle of our institutional grants, from prospect research and proposal development through reporting, renewal, and stewardship, while building the systems and processes that allow our fundraising operation to scale. The Development Manager reports directly to the Senior Director of Strategic Growth and Impact, working closely to align funding opportunities with organizational priorities, develop institutional fundraising strategies, and ensure compliance with funder requirements.\nThe individual in this position will play a key role in supporting the organization's long-term sustainability and impact, powering annual fundraising goals of over $6MM. Experience managing a portfolio and grant cycle with 6-7 figure grant commitments is required.\nWe’re looking for someone who gets genuinely excited about turning a great idea into a great case for support. You are an exceptional writer who can take a complicated program, an ambitious strategy, or a pile of inputs from across an organization and find the story in it-then make that story clear, compelling, and hard to say no to. You’re also the person who knows exactly when the report is due, what’s still missing, and who needs a nudge to get it over the finish line.\nWe don’t see development as simply writing grants or keeping a fundraising calendar; it’s about understanding where the organization is going, seeing how a funder’s interests intersect with that vision, and building the relationships and arguments that bring the two together. We’re looking for someone who wants to learn that whole craft: a strong writer and meticulous operator today, with the curiosity, judgment, and relational instincts to grow into a top development leader as Future Caucus grows.\nABOUT FUTURE CAUCUS\nFuture Caucus has an audacious mission: activate young leaders to bridge the partisan divide and transform American politics. Future Caucus is a national, nonpartisan organization dedicated to supporting the next generation of elected leaders. We provide the resources, networking, and capacity-building opportunities for these policymakers to forge productive partnerships on critical national issues.\nIn 2013, Future Caucus organized the nation’s first and only caucus for young members of Congress, the Congressional Future Caucus, to build coalitions on future-oriented challenges. Future Caucus also scaled this model into 36 state legislatures, each with a Future Caucus consisting of young, high-potential legislators, and has now engaged more than 2,100 young legislators nationwide. In 2025, Future Caucus’ President & CEO was named to the TIME100 Next list.
