SAFE Alliance
Chief Development Officer (CDO) Austin, Texas (Hybrid) _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Opportunity The SAFE Alliance is seeking a Chief Development Officer to lead a transformational phase of philanthropic growth and organizational impact. This is not a maintenance role. This is a build, scale, and lead role. The SAFE Alliance (SAFE) is one of the largest nonprofit organizations in Central Texas, operating at the intersection of crisis response, prevention, housing stability, and long-term healing. With an annual operating budget of approximately $30M and philanthropy as a critical revenue driver, SAFE is poised for its next phase of growth. The Chief Development Officer will partner directly with the CEO, Board of Directors, and Executive Leadership Team to build a high-performing, accountable development function that can sustain and expand SAFE's impact across the region. This leader will be responsible for both delivering near-term revenue results and building the long-term systems and strategy required to scale philanthropy. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Why This Role, Why Now SAFE has strong community credibility, mission urgency, and programmatic scale. The organization is already operating at meaningful size and impact-but the development function has not yet reached the level of discipline, infrastructure, and performance required to sustain the next phase of growth. This role exists to close that gap. The next phase of SAFE's trajectory requires more than incremental improvement. It requires building a development function that is both high performing in the near term and structurally sound for long-term scale.
