Vice President of Advancement
St. Norbert College
De Pere, WI

Founded in 1898 and recognized as one of the most highly regarded Catholic liberal arts colleges in the country, St. Norbert College (SNC) is the world’s only Norbertine college. Its idyllic campus sits along a bend of the Fox River in De Pere, WI (a suburb of Green Bay).

St. Norbert College has experienced remarkable institutional and philanthropic growth during the last decade, resulting in one of the most beautiful and modern campuses in the upper Midwest.

St. Norbert College seeks a dynamic and proven advancement leader to build upon SNC’s recent fundraising success and shape its next chapter as Vice President of Advancement (VPA). Successful candidates will enthusiastically support St. Norbert Colleges’ Catholic, Norbertine, and liberal arts values, as well as embrace its unique mission as a compelling opportunity to elevate and amplify SNC through increased support.

The VPA will report to President Laurie M. Joyner, Ph.D., who has a distinguished career in academia, a wealth of experience, a proven track record of success, and a demonstrated ability to guide institutions through challenging economic times, implementing strategies that not only overcome obstacles but also achieve long-term growth and prosperity. As the President’s lead partner in strengthening the College’s advancement efforts, the VPA will also serve on the President’s Cabinet and as a member of key institutional committees. Close collaboration with the President’s Advisory Committee, the Alumni Board, and the campus community will be essential.

This role requires a seasoned fundraising professional with a demonstrated track record as a major and/or principal gift fundraiser. The VPA will also have deep experience as a leader and manager of people, projects, and budgets. Comprehensive campaign experience is necessary, as are superior communication and relationship-building skills.

The salary for this position is $150,000 to $200,000 per year, commensurate with experience. The College recruits a diverse, mission-focused workforce by providing competitive pay and attractive benefits.
