  • Director of Development for Clinical Progams
    DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT FOR CLINICAL PROGAMS Washington University St. Louis, Missouri THE SEARCH Washington University Medical Center, encompassing Barnes-Jewish Hospital, St. Louis Children’s Hospital, and the Alvin J. Siteman Cancer Center in addition to the top-ranked Washington University School of Medicine, is an expansive operation that had over one million outpatient visits in 2016. The medical center is currently engaged in a major 10-year renewal project to transform its campus through a number of new construction and renovation projects with an overall focus on improving the patient and family experience from both a clinical and campus perspective. The Office of Medical Alumni & Development Programs (MADP) played a prominent role in Leading Together: The Campaign for Washington University, which launched publicly in 2012 and concluded on June 30, 2018. The initiative raises critical funds in support of four key areas: preparing leaders for tomorrow, advancing human health, inspiring innovation and entrepreneurship, and enhancing the quality of life. Originally a $2.2 billion effort, the university increased the campaign goal to $2.5 billion, with MADP responsible for approximately one half of the total. In all, medical development raised $1.8 billion, surpassing its $1.1 billion share of the campaign goal. The director of development for clinical programs will join a high-performing and sophisticated advancement enterprise. This team of 35 advancement professionals raises more than $150 million each year through the strategic engagement of alumni, grateful patients, friends, foundations, and corporations. The director will cultivate, solicit, and steward grateful patients and families with the capacity to make major gifts to Washington University, supporting the department of medicine, the largest department within the School of Medicine.

See below for full image caption. St. Louis, Missouri, September 9, 2019—This fall, one of the top programs for art, architecture and design at a U.S. university—the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts at Washington University in St. Louis—is unveiling two major new capital projects that will transform the campus, reshape the visitor experience and firmly establish the prominence of its art museum on campus. The newly constructed Anabeth and John Weil Hall houses state-of-the-art graduate studios, classrooms and digital fabrication spaces. A major expansion and renovation of the Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum will strengthen visibility, better showcase the renowned permanent collection and accommodate larger and more varied special exhibitions. Designed by the internationally acclaimed architecture firm KieranTimberlake, both projects are part of the $280 million transformation of the East End of Washington University’s Danforth Campus. The renovated Kemper Art Museum will open to the public on September 28. A dedication for the larger East End transformation, which encompasses eight components, will take place on October 2. Master planning for the East End was led by landscape architect Michael Vergason.
