Fundraising Systems and Analytics Coordinator
The Fundraising Systems and Analytics Coordinator (FSAC) serves as the primary systems, reporting, analytics, and technology support professional within the Development Department. Reporting to the Director of Development Operations, this role ensures that fundraising staff has the information, tools, training, and operational support necessary to maximize donor engagement and fundraising effectiveness. The FSAC serves as the day-to-day bridge between development staff and the organization’s Senior CRM Manager.
The FSAC is not the organization’s Salesforce Administrator. Instead, this role functions as the fundraising department’s internal systems and analytics lead, trainer, implementation partner, and user-support expert. The position translates fundraising needs into technical requirements, manages development-related CRM requests, builds reports and dashboards, administers key fundraising technology platforms, and helps leadership make data-informed decisions.
Grants Manager
Israel Policy Forum seeks a highly organized, detail-oriented, and mission-driven Grants Manager (GM) to support the organization’s institutional fundraising and prospect development efforts. Reporting to the CGOSO, the GM will play a central role in identifying funding opportunities, developing compelling grant proposals and reports, conducting prospect research, managing grant deadlines and deliverables, and supporting foundation and donor stewardship efforts.
The GM will work closely with the Director of Development Operations and the Director of Leadership Giving to strengthen fundraising systems, support donor cultivation efforts, and advance institutional fundraising strategies, particularly at the intersection of family foundations and individual donors. This position is ideal for a strong writer and project manager who enjoys collaborating across departments, translating programmatic work into compelling fundraising materials, and helping secure resources that advance IPF’s mission.
Communications Associate
Reporting to the Director of Communications and Marketing, the Communications Associate plays a key support role in the execution of Israel Policy Forum’s communications operations. The position helps advance the visibility of the organization, its mission, programs, and spokespeople by supporting the implementation of communications initiatives across traditional and digital platforms.
Key responsibilities include building and distributing email campaigns, posting content to social media channels, proofreading and formatting written materials, updating website content, providing registration and logistical support for virtual events, collecting and organizing data from communications platforms, and assisting with administrative and project-based tasks that support the day-to-day needs of a fast-paced communications department.
Operations and Finance Administration Manager
Israel Policy Forum seeks an Operations and Finance Administration Manager to support internal operations, budget administration, accounts payable, expense tracking, and cross-functional systems. This is a strong fi t for a nonprofi t operations generalist who is comfortable with budgets, basic fi nance administration, QuickBooks Online coding, credit card receipts, invoices, reimbursements, vendor documentation, and staff-facing operational support.
This is not a technical accounting or controller role. The ideal candidate will be organized, detail-oriented, service-oriented, comfortable with numbers and systems, and able to coordinate effectively with staff, vendors, and external accounting support.
Head of Communications
Reporting directly to the Chief Executive Officer and serving on the leadership team, the Head of Communications will define and drive a high-impact, integrated communications strategy that elevates Israel Policy Forum’s national profile and influence. As the organization’s seniormost communications professional, the Head of Communications will design and lead a cohesive, multi-channel marketing and communications strategy to amplify IPF’s reputation among priority stakeholders, architect and execute media and messaging strategies, cultivate and manage top-tier media relationships, and oversee editorial direction to ensure clarity, consistency, and resonance across all channels. This leader will build, mentor, and scale a highperforming communications and marketing team; partner with external vendors and strategic collaborators; and implement streamlined processes and workflows that enable speed, rigor, and alignment.
Leading a team of four with resources to hire an additional team member and partner with strategic consultants, the Head of Communications will work collaboratively across policy, leadership, and external-facing teams to align cross-functional efforts, translating policy ideas into compelling narratives and amplifying them with precision across platforms. This role will also drive proactive and rapid-response communications, develop and deploy effective spokesperson strategies, produce sophisticated donor-facing collateral, and partner closely with IPF leadership and subject matter experts to craft and refine organizational messaging. The Head of Communications will serve as the steward of brand excellence, ensuring consistency and quality, while establishing clear metrics to track performance, generate insight, and continuously refine strategy to expand reach and impact.

Reporting to the IPF Atid Deputy Director, the Program Coordinator (PC) will be responsible for the day-to-day planning, execution, and follow-up of D.C. chapter programs, working closely with the D.C. Steering Committee and community partners.
This role will also support the IPF Atid Deputy Director in executing IPF Atid leadership initiatives by coordinating logistics, communications, participant engagement, and other core operational functions.
