Posted
Full time / $60,798.40 annually / Fractured Atlas / New York, NY
Fractured Atlas is seeking a full-time Fundraising & Member Advisor, Programs for their Programs team. Fractured Atlas is a national nonprofit art service organization with a membership of over 75,000. Their mission is to make the journey from inspiration to living practice more accessible and equitable for artists and creatives. They are dedicated to helping individual artists and arts organizations at every level of the cultural ecosystem, in every creative medium by providing fundraising tools, educational resources, and personalized support. As a key member of the Programs Team, the Fundraising & Member Advisor, Programs provides essential support across all programs and services, working closely with their members and artists on a daily basis.
The successful candidate will be a creative problem solver and quick learner with an enthusiasm for the arts. They should be personable over the phone and email, demonstrate a high level of patience and understanding (especially when explaining the same information multiple times), and be able to operate and respond in a fast-paced environment while remaining calm and collected. Candidates with backgrounds in fundraising, development, arts administration, technical support, and/or customer service will likely excel in this role. Since Fractured Atlas works virtually, this position requires strong self-motivation and will be remotely supervised by the Associate Director of Membership & Fiscal Operations, Programs.
At Fractured Atlas, they individually and collectively work hard to carry out their organization’s mission. They also understand that work is just one part of life and, through a culture of care, support team members having full and robust lives outside of work. With that foundation, their organizational culture embraces people who are open to:
- Building trust with others and addressing equitable distribution of responsibilities when collaborating.
- Learning new ways of working while welcoming change as a way to reshape processes/policies/programming that no longer serve their values.
- Transparency in communications, decision making, and feedback.
- Centering care and connection in their individual work and in relation to their colleagues.
They recognize that the culture and core values of an organization should continue to evolve to reflect the world they live in. At any given time, they recognize that there might be emerging values other than stated values (bit.ly/HWW-WhoWhatWhy) and they continue to have conversations about stated and emerging values.
Additionally, at Fractured Atlas they work to adhere to anti-oppression and anti-racism principles (bit.ly/ARAOguidelines) in all areas of their internal and external work. This commitment is grounded in their belief that change is possible, and that their work and that of the artistic community as a whole will grow stronger as oppression is eliminated.
In their current phase of this journey towards being an Anti-Racist Anti-Oppressive organization, the whole staff is engaged in all staff ARAO meetings led by rotating teams and undergo training as part of their onboarding process. They recognize that they do not have all of the answers as they pursue this work. This work will continue to shift as the Fractured Atlas team changes. They ask that new team members join them as they continue to learn, practice, and grow in this work. Learn more about what it’s like to work at Fractured Atlas here: bit.ly/HWW-Homepage.

*There is some travel for team and full staff gatherings, but they respect that individuals have different risk levels with travel at this time and will work with employees to determine what is possible, with consideration for what is unsafe or uncomfortable for team members.
