ABOUT US
Women Donors Network (WDN) is a national network of women (cis and trans), nonbinary, and gender-expansive individuals committed to protecting and advancing gender, racial, economic, and climate justice. As a growing multiracial and multigenerational community of donor organizers, we connect, grow, fund, and mobilize together in solidarity with movements to transform people, culture, and systems rooted in justice.

SUMMARY
The Chief Program Officer leads and integrates WDN/A’s member engagement and mobilization strategy and our learning, grantmaking, and advocacy functions to ensure WDN/A’s membership model operates as a cohesive system for building donor power in alignment with movements for justice. This role is responsible for translating WDN/A’s mission and strategic priorities into a high-impact strategy for member engagement by deepening philanthropic and political education, mobilizing resources to the field through strategic grantmaking, and activating members as effective donor organizers and advocates.

Building on a strong foundation, the Chief Program Officer will refine and strengthen our strategic membership model by clarifying pathways to engagement, deepening member activation, and ensuring consistent conversion from learning to resource mobilization, coordinated advocacy, and collective power-building. The Chief Program Officer will ensure that every program and initiative across our learning, grantmaking and advocacy functions strengthens our membership network’s capacity to move money, influence, and collective action in service of gender, racial, economic, and climate justice.

As an executive leader who reports to the President & CEO and who is a member of WDN/A’s Executive Team, the Chief Program Officer must have high emotional intelligence and a deep understanding of donor psychology, transformational giving, and how to design experiences that deepen our members’ relationship to wealth, power, and responsibility. The Chief Program Officer will cultivate and steward trust-based partnerships with our members, grantees, and field leaders through positioning WDN/A as a connective force within the broader movement ecosystem.

Requirements

Deep commitment to WDN/A’s mission and values, with previous work experience in at least two of WDN’s funding priorities. Deep experience at the intersection of philanthropy, movement building, and/or political advocacy, with a clear understanding of how power operates across these domains is strongly preferred.

Demonstrated success leading, refining and scaling an established strategy and systems for greater impact, with a track record of mobilizing significant resources (e.g., philanthropic capital, political funding, or aligned investments) in service of mission-driven outcomes.

Previous experience leading, integrating, and scaling complex, cross-functional strategies, transformations and/or organizational change into cohesive, high-performing organizational systems that deliver results.

Exceptional communication and cross-functional leadership skills, with the ability to engage, align, and influence diverse stakeholders, including donors, staff, and partners, toward shared goals.
