Pipeline, CRM & Data Management

• Maintain accurate and timely fundraising records across Salesforce and Asana, including prospects, opportunities, engagement, tasks, correspondence and next steps.
• Maintain data hygiene by completing routine deduplication, cleaning inconsistent fields, validating gift and opportunity records, and monitoring data quality across both systems.
• Maintain accurate pipeline stages and cultivation-cycle movement, recording new research, engagement notes, wealth indicators, relationship insights and qualification information.
• Log stewardship touch points and recognition history so that donor interactions and relationship knowledge are retained as institutional memory in Salesforce.
• Run basic Salesforce reports, prepare data extracts and pipeline materials, and flag relationships or opportunities where follow-up or intervention is required.

Donor, Pipeline & Convening Coordination

• Coordinate global pipeline reviews: gather updates, prepare materials, document decisions and next steps, assign actions and follow up on outstanding commitments.
• Support senior-level engagement with priority prospects and partners, ensuring leaders have the context, materials and information they need.
• Support Splash's use of major global and regional convenings such as UNGA, World Water Week, AVPN, Impact Europe and Skoll through attendee research, targeting, scheduling, briefing and follow-up.
• Maintain clear records of conversations and opportunities generated through events and help convert introductions into sustained relationships and qualified opportunities.

Development Operations

• Complete routine gift entry and support monthly revenue and gift reconciliation with the Director of Development Operations & Donor Relations and Finance.
• Maintain grant preparation and reporting calendars, tracking deadlines, responsibilities, required inputs, review stages and approvals.
• Maintain organized digital records and shared drives for donor correspondence, proposals, reports, agreements, amendments and due-diligence materials.
• Coordinate Development-team receipts, expenses, credit card reporting and invoices, maintaining clear records and following up on outstanding items.
• Provide general administrative and operational support that keeps the Development function running smoothly.

Relationship Development

• Support the cultivation and stewardship of selected prospective and existing partners and participate in donor and partner meetings where appropriate.
• Over time, support selected early-stage relationships and opportunities with increasing independence under the guidance of Development leadership.

Qualifications

• Approximately 2-4 years of relevant experience in fundraising, philanthropy, partnerships, business development, research, international development, consulting or a related field.
• Excellent research, analytical and written communication skills, with the ability to turn detailed information into concise, decision-useful briefings.
• Strong organizational and project-management skills, attention to detail and consistent follow-through.
• Confidence working with CRM systems, data, spreadsheets and digital research tools; Salesforce experience is helpful but not essential.
• Comfort working across teams, cultures and time zones, and with senior leaders and sensitive information.
• Commercial and political awareness, curiosity, sound judgement and a genuine interest in philanthropy, strategic partnerships and Splash's mission.
• Comfort using AI-enabled research and productivity tools, with the judgement to verify information and use them appropriately.
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience.
