- Partner closely with the Executive Assistant to the CEO to coordinate donor meetings and engagements.
- Assist with scheduling, logistics, and preparation timelines for CEO donor interactions and other Institutional Advancement engagement opportunities.
- Assist the VP of Institutional Advancement with materials, agendas, and briefing documents for donor strategy sessions involving the CEO.
- Support prospect strategy meetings by ensuring clarity of objectives, roles, and follow-up actions.
- Coordinate CEO-focused donor and board engagement activities, including Cogswell Dinner, Board Retreats, Board receptions, Board gifts and holiday cards, and other high-level cultivation and stewardship events.
- Manage timelines, logistics, and coordination with internal and external partners for board and executive-level donor engagement.
- Provide limited donor management and coordination support for the Albany Medical Center Hospital General Director and Albany Medical College Dean, using the same standards of documentation, follow-up, and collaboration.
