Director of Development

White Plains Hospital

White Plains, New York

In 1893, a dedicated group of 22 women and three men came together to establish a voluntary, not-for-profit hospital for their community, White Plains Hospital (WPH). In that first year, 31 patients were cared for. One hundred twenty-five years later, almost 200,000 patients receive treatments in White Plains Hospital’s facilities annually. As the leading provider of advanced healthcare in the Hudson Valley, WPH’s mission extends beyond inpatient and outpatient care to include assessing and improving the health status of the local community, the professional community and the business sector. The Hospital strives to enhance its capabilities and to deliver health care services, within the scope of its resources, in a cost-effective manner.

The Opportunity

The Director of Development position with White Plains Hospital Foundation is a leadership role within a robust, vibrant, and growing organization. The position will report directly to the Vice President of the Foundation and partner with high level administrators, medical staff and volunteers frequently. Given the Hospital’s high standing within the medical and local community, the ideal candidate will have strong communication skills and proven success in collaborating with doctors, medical professionals, and high-level administrators, and a strong sense of self-motivation and accountability.
