Become part of the Development Team

WUSF Advancement Administrator - Full-time, salaried position. 

The Development team connects WUSF Public Media with donors who want to make a difference by providing philanthropic support that fuels our mission to enrich the mind and inspire curiosity through trusted journalism, classical music, and cultural programming.

The Advancement Administrator supports that mission by owning the inter-related systems, data, reporting, and recurring processes that enable WUSF Public Media's major gifts program to operate accurately, consistently, and at scale.

Reporting to the Senior Director of Development, the position serves as the operational link for systems that drive fundraising activities at WUSF, collaborating with WUSF colleagues and the USF Foundation. The role translates fundraising priorities into reliable workflows, precise and sound reports, accurate donor and prospect records, timely stewardship, and well-executed communications.

Success requires advanced proficiency with Salesforce, Ellucian, and related data systems; skill in reporting, data quality, and process design; sound judgment in handling confidential donor information; and the ability to independently manage multiple high-stakes processes with firm deadlines. The position protects the integrity of fundraising information, strengthens donor experience, and gives development leadership the operational visibility needed to manage relationships, pipelines, and revenue-producing activity.
