A role grounded in purpose.
A supportive team united by a bold vision and shared passion.
A strong, strategic mission-driven organization reshaping life and future for people living with dementia.

Consider joining us at the Alzheimer Society of Calgary, where shared values and fresh ideas meet the ambition, energy, and encouragement to move them forward. We’re searching for the right person to join us full-time as the Philanthropy Officer.

In your role, you will be accountable for developing and implementing elements of the annual giving and events programs, building long-term relationships with donors and sponsors, and increasing stakeholder engagement. You will ensure fundraising projects are positioned to deliver set goals through careful planning, effective project management and coordination, teamwork, and ongoing evaluation.
