About this role

The Salvation Army is one of the largest social service providers in the United States. We are committed to serving our neighbors in need through food pantries, shelters, financial assistance programs, summer camps, and more.  You may recognize us from our Red Kettle Campaign at Christmas time, but the need of the less fortunate doesn't stop after Christmas, and neither do we.

In pursuit of this objective, the Development Specialist will develop and execute a plan to diversify, strengthen, and increase the grant funding base including developing new sources of funding.

This is a full-time, exempt position, 40 hours per week, with a starting pay up to $60,000 a year depending on education and experience.

The Salvation Army Midland Divisional Headquarters is located at 1130 Hampton Ave, St. Louis, Missouri 63139.
