The National Veterans Memorial and Museum (NVMM) in Columbus, Ohio, represents a national initiative of profound importance for our nation’s 20+ million living Veterans.

There was previously no single monument or museum dedicated to the Veteran’s experience in the US until today.

The Membership Associate must have excellent communication skills, strong fundraising and/or sales skills, problem-solving aptitude, a donor-centric approach, ability to work in an evolving and fast-paced environment, and regular weekend availability.

This is an excellent opportunity to learn, develop business associations, and help build up a corporate sponsorship program, maximizing the Museum’s relationship and partnership opportunities with philanthropic minded companies; and rebuild what will be the founding corporate membership program in the Museum’s new building.

·        With the Associate Director, create a multiyear business plan and strategy to relaunch the corporate membership program, in advance of the Museum’s reopening; prepare progress and summary reports for senior staff.
