WHO WE ARE
CCS Fundraising is an international strategic fundraising firm that partners with nonprofits for transformational change. Since 1947, CCS has empowered many of the world’s leading organizations across sectors to advance some of the most important causes in history. We plan, manage, and implement programs and initiatives that achieve fundraising goals and mission impact. This year, we were named one of Forbes’ America’s Best Management Consulting Firms 2026, based on recommendations from clients and consulting peers.
 
CCS provides tailored support to more than 700 nonprofit organizations annually. Headquartered in New York, the firm has over 600 professionals and 18 offices throughout the United States and Europe. Our people are our greatest strength. At CCS, you will join a diverse team of smart, passionate, and resourceful professionals who are driven by purpose and committed to performance.
Our services include:
  • Campaign Management
  • Strategy, Evaluation & Planning
  • Interim Development Management
  • Learning & Leadership Development
  • Data Analytics
A CAREER AT CCS
Our people are our greatest strength. The collective sum of the individual experiences, backgrounds, knowledge, and talent that our employees invest in their work represents a significant part of not only our culture, but our reputation of excellence.
 
Whether it’s in one of our regional offices or on the ground with our clients, you will have direct access to leaders in the field, expanding your opportunities to learn and build your network for future success. We invest in the training, tools, and support necessary for growth throughout your career and encourage peer collaboration in a lively and engaging environment.
 
Our consultants report that the best aspects of working for CCS are the relationships with colleagues, leading nonprofits, and philanthropists; the performance-based career paths; and the diversity of projects. 
 
CATHOLIC PARISH AND DIOCESAN CAMPAIGN PROJECTS
CCS is a leader in directing transformational, multimillion dollar campaigns for Catholic dioceses and parishes. Our diocesan campaign work is carried out by a team of dedicated CCS consultants serving as Faith-Based Fundraising Consultant. Each consultant manages multiple parish campaigns simultaneously and contributes to achieving overall diocesan campaign goals.
 
Consultants partner closely with onsite campaign executives, fellow Faith-Based Fundraising Consultants, pastors, parish staff, and volunteers to execute a phased, highly structured campaign plan. This work requires consultants to be onsite at client locations Monday–Friday, with regular evening hours and occasional weekend commitments depending on parish needs.
 
Diocesan campaigns are mission driven, community focused, fast paced, and highly collaborative. The environment is supportive, fun, and provides a deeply rewarding opportunity to contribute to meaningful local impact. Consultants build strong relationships with pastors, volunteers, and donors while developing leadership skills that will serve them throughout their careers.
 
WHAT WE OFFER 
  • Expenses & Travel Support: CCS provides temporary relocation assistance for employees assigned to campaigns outside their home or working state. This includes up to four weeks of covered hotel and meal expenses, temporary lease application fees, and approved lease and utility costs, all managed through Navan. Depending on the assignment, employees may also receive access to rental cars or leased vehicles to support their campaign needs. 
  • Learning & Development: These projects are widely regarded as one of the strongest learning environments in major gift fundraising and the broader field of philanthropy. Many consultants begin on these engagements and go on to lead diocesan campaigns or pursue advanced campaign work across sectors.
  • Collaborative Environment: While CCS consultants typically serve as the primary project manager, consultants collaborate with 1–2 dozen colleagues across the life of a campaign, gaining exposure to diverse perspectives and expertise.
  • Training, Mentorship & Support: CCS provides a clear roadmap for growth, dedicated mentors, and extensive learning resources. While the role requires flexibility and commitment, consultants are supported with structure, coaching, and tools to succeed.
WHO YOU ARE
Outstanding candidates bring diverse experiences, a strong interest in philanthropy, and the ambition to grow in a rewarding consulting career. The ideal candidate is highly self-motivated, curious, and passionate about mission driven work. While prior fundraising experience is welcome, candidates with transferable skills in consulting, communications, marketing, project management, or strategic planning are encouraged to apply.  This role is an excellent opportunity for early career professionals and recent college graduates. No Catholic or religious background is required.
 
We are looking for someone who can:
  • Thrive in a mission oriented, community focused environment
  • Support clients, volunteers, and donors to ensure a positive, effective campaign experience
  • Lead and manage projects from start to finish
  • Apply critical and strategic thinking to identify the core of a problem or question
