The Fund for Johns Hopkins Medicine (FJHM) is the dedicated development and alumni relations team supporting the entities that comprise Johns Hopkins Medicine (JHM), including clinical departments, hospitals, satellite clinics, and the School of Medicine. We contribute to Johns Hopkins Medicine’s mission of patient care, research, and education through securing philanthropy, building and maintaining donor and alumni relationships, and supporting institutional priorities. FJHM partners closely with institutional leaders, faculty, and clinicians to engage alumni, patients, donors, and prospects in JHM’s work to advance medicine and improve the human condition.


The Associate Director of Development will be responsible for the planning, implementation, and management of major gift fundraising efforts for the benefit of the Brady Urological Institute’s faculty and programmatic priorities. The Associate Director will solicit major gifts ($100,000+), and occasional annual gifts, in support of the Brady from friends, grateful patients, and foundations. This position will serve as the primary development liaison to faculty who direct the Prostate Program, as well as faculty who are involved in the Divisions of Urologic Oncology and Pediatric Urology.


Working with senior development staff members across Johns Hopkins, as well as faculty, administrators, and volunteer leaders, the Associate Director will identify, strategize, cultivate, solicit, and steward a portfolio of prospects. The Associate Director will partner with the Executive Director of Development and Jakurski Family Director of the Brady to strategize, develop, and execute Brady Advisory Board communications, meetings, and activities.

  • Organize and direct preparation of proposals, gift agreements, outreach and solicitation letters, and other cultivation and informational material for prospects and donors.
  • Manage the activities of the Brady’s Advisory Board (BAB), serving as a point of contact for members and emeriti members. In partnership with the Executive Director of Development and Jakurski Family Director of the Brady, facilitate fundraising, cultivation, communication, and engagement strategies for BAB members. Activities may include twice-yearly meetings, webinars, monthly e-communications, and social gatherings. Draft scripts, briefings, and materials for BAB meetings and events.
