Chief Philanthropy Officer

Synergos - New York, NY
Synergos is seeking a Chief Philanthropy Officer who will be a dynamic, strategic, and mission-driven leader who will spearhead an integrated approach to philanthropy, resource mobilization, and strategic partnerships. Serving as a member of the Executive Leadership Team and reporting directly to the President and CEO, the Chief Philanthropy Officer will develop and execute innovative strategies that strengthen Synergos' long-term financial sustainability, global influence, and social impact. This is an exceptional opportunity to help shape the future of global philanthropy — connecting visionary families, catalyzing collective action, and supporting a new era of more reflective and regenerative giving.

This role offers a flexible, hybrid schedule, requiring two to three days per week in the office.

As the inability to collaborate across economic, social, and political divides continues to have dire consequences for our planet and its inhabitants, Synergos is a global organization pioneering the use of Bridging Leadership, which builds trust and collaboration to solve complex problems. Founded in 1986, they have staff and representatives in Africa, Asia, the Arab World, Europe, Latin America, and the United States. For nearly 40 years, Synergos has brought together diverse stakeholders in over 30 countries to shift systems, create lasting change, and demonstrate that collaboration, shared vision, and deeper understanding lead to more effective and sustainable solutions.

"As CEO, I try to lead Synergos the way I'd want to be led, using our methodology internally for co-creation. I'm proud that we've built a place where people feel genuinely respected. As we continue with transformative internal change and approach our 40th anniversary in 2027, I'm looking for a strategic partner and big-picture thinker to help lead what comes next. With four decades of Bridging Leadership on the table, we’re ready to pull up a chair for you, and ask together: what could this become? What will it take, in resources and relationships, to get there? And just as important, how can we be a bridge to your leadership?" — Camille Massey, President & CEO
