About the Role

Location: Remote (US) Role Type: Full-Time Reporting to: Director, Partnerships Compensation: $85,000 - $110,000 annually

CodePath’s Philanthropy Partnerships team raises the philanthropic capital behind the courses, career support, and career outcomes of our students. The Partner Engagement and Communications Manager turns CodePath’s impact into action. You’ll equip the team with compelling stories, visual communications, donor experiences, and campaigns that help funders understand the difference their partnership makes and inspire them to deepen their investment. The role owns a portfolio spanning fundraising collateral and asset management, cultivation and stewardship events, and seasonal fundraising, including end-of-year giving.

This is a highly autonomous building role that combines strategic ownership with hands-on execution. You’ll lead complex, multi-stakeholder initiatives from concept through execution, and build the systems, templates, and AI-enabled workflows that make recurring fundraising communications faster and more consistent. Success requires moving quickly in a fast-paced, evolving organization, translating data and stories into compelling visual communications, and continuously improving how the team plans and executes events and campaigns.
