Aspen Leadership Group is proud to partner with the Institute for Advanced Study in the search for a Chief Development Officer.A high number of candidates may make applications for this position, so make sure to send your CV and application through as soon as possible.Reporting to the Associate Director/Assistant Secretary, the Chief Development Officer will be responsible for the generation of both annual and capital support for the Institute and play a central role in both the near- and long-term future of this singular institution.The Institute for Advanced Study (IAS) is one of the worldí¢â‚¬â„¢s leading centers for theoretical research and intellectual inquiry. Founded in 1930 by philanthropists Louis Bamberger and his sister Caroline Bamberger Fuld, the Instituteí¢â‚¬â„¢s 800-acre campus in Princeton, New Jersey provides a tranquil environment for pure, curiosity-based scholarship.IAS provides some of the worldí¢â‚¬â„¢s most promising researchers the freedom to explore, without predetermined constraints, and to mentor others with similar potential. With a permanent Faculty of 26 and approximately 200 visiting researchers and scholars (known as Members) annually, the Instituteí¢â‚¬â„¢s four Schoolsí¢â‚¬"Historical Studies, Mathematics, Natural Sciences, and Social Scienceí¢â‚¬"have generated some of the most important discoveries of the past century and nurtured some of its most important minds, including 35 Nobel Laureates, 44 out of 62 Fields Medalists, 23 of the 26 Abel Prize Laureates, and many winners of the Wolf and MacArthur prizes. This work is made possible by philanthropic contributions, which ensure the Instituteí¢â‚¬â„¢s vital independence through the growth of its approximately $1 billion endowment and annual support of its $74 million budget. Currently, a permanent Faculty of 26 eminent academics guide the work of the Schools and each year awards fellowships to some 200 of the worldí¢â‚¬â„¢s most promising post-doctoral scholars and researchers from over 100 universities and research institutions throughout the world.In the more than 90 years since its founding, the work of the Instituteí¢â‚¬â„¢s Faculty and Members has been transformative, in both intellectual and practical terms. At the beginning of computing, one of the first stored program computers was designed and built on the Instituteí¢â‚¬â„¢s campus, and its structure (von Neumann architecture) has influenced the development of todayí¢â‚¬â„¢s computers and formed the mathematical basis for computer software.Past Faculty have included Albert Einsteiní¢â‚¬"who remained at the Institute until his death in 1955í¢â‚¬"and distinguished scientists and scholars, such as Freeman Dyson, Clifford Geertz, Kurt G탶del, Hetty Goldman, George Kennan, J.

IAS affirms equality and embraces its differences as it works to transform principles into action and grow new forms of scholarly community.
