Finance Director

Location: Remote (Washington, D.C. preferred)

About the role

TN50’s next Finance Director will architect and scale a national fundraising operation capable of generating $3 million+ in annual revenue and sustaining year-over-year growth beyond that threshold. The Finance Director will design and execute a comprehensive, multi-channel finance strategy spanning major donors, events and donor circles, bundling, digital fundraising, and institutional support. The work will require both strategic clarity and operational discipline. The core charge is straightforward: create a predictable, high-performance revenue engine.

At TN50, Finance Director is a Senior Staff position of significant influence, responsibility, and opportunity, reporting directly to TN50’s Executive Director, Hon. Mari Manoogian, and will work with TN50 staff, board of directors, and endorsed Leaders.

What You Will Build

Over the first 12–18 months, the Finance Director will establish a finance program calibrated to exceed $3 million annually, sequencing growth across revenue streams and aligning strategy with the election cycle. This includes:

• Expanding and upgrading the major donor base
• Structuring donor circles and events into repeatable, high-yield channels
• Integrating TN50’s network with endorsed Leaders’ fundraising efforts
• Strengthening digital revenue to diversify and stabilize cash flow

Equally important is infrastructure. The Finance Director will institutionalize disciplined pipeline management, forecasting, and CRM practices, ensuring that revenue can be measured, projected, and improved quarter over quarter.

Qualifications

You are a builder. You are motivated by ambitious targets and energized by the work of refining process until it performs. You bring substantial fundraising experience—at least two cycles in Democratic campaigns, PACs, or mission-driven organizations—and a demonstrated ability to raise significant revenue while managing complexity. You are comfortable with direct donor solicitation, confident setting strategy, and disciplined in execution. You are proactive rather than reactive. You identify opportunities, pressure-test assumptions, and pursue growth without waiting to be asked. Most importantly, you want to take an organization at an inflection point and help move it to the next level of institutional strength.
