[Graham Wright]

CMS Development Coordinator

The Canadian Mathematical Society (CMS), one of the leading 
mathematics organizations in Canada, works to enhance Canada's 
capacity to innovate and compete globally by promoting the discovery, 
learning and application of mathematics in Canada. With approximately 
1000 members from across Canada and beyond, the CMS's active 
volunteers support efforts to identify and develop young 
mathematicians (through its math competitions, math camps and other 
educational activities) and to enhance the practice of mathematics in 
Canada (through national conferences, publishing research journals and 
books as well as newsletters).

Reporting to the Executive Director (CMS), the Development Coordinator 
will be on the ground floor of a new fundraising effort to help ensure 
the CMS can continue to expand its programming for the benefit of 
mathematicians and mathematics in Canada.  The Development Coordinator 
will manage the CMS's fundraising efforts working closely with its 
volunteers and professional staff. The Development Coordinator will 
also draft proposals to prospective donors and assist with CMS's 
direct response and marketing efforts.

The successful candidate will be an effective fundraiser with superior 
organizational skills and the ability to inspire and manage volunteers 
as part of a national organization. He/she will be creative, 
energetic, tactful, and flexible and will have good judgement. He/she 
will have excellent interpersonal skills and a strong service 
orientation. Ability to speak and write in French is an asset.
