Job Posting: Vice President for Development

UT Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas seeks nominations for and expressions of interest in the position of Vice President for Development.

UT Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas, founded as Southwestern Medical College in 1943, is a broad based and comprehensive medical center with international recognition for its research and clinical activities. Located on a 261-acre tract just north of downtown Dallas, UTSMC is comprised of three degree-granting institutions: Southwestern Medical School, Southwestern Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences, and Southwestern School of Health Professions. The three entities currently train more than 4,200 medical, graduate and allied health students, residents and post-doctoral fellows each year. In addition, some 3,500 research projects receive approximately $361 million in annual support. The more than 1,750 full-time and 250 adjunct faculty include four active Nobel Laureates, 18 members of the National Academy of Sciences, and a large number of other physicians who have been honored for their research and clinical activities. Faculty members and residents provide care for 97,000 hospitalized patients and approximately 1.7 million outpatients per year at UT Southwestern University Hospitals, Parkland Health & Hospital System, Children's Medical Center Dallas and the VA North Texas Health Care System, as well as the Aston Building, the Harold C. Simmons Comprehensive Cancer Center, and other affiliated hospitals and clinics in North Texas.

UT Southwestern’s annual budget, which is approaching $1.45 billion, is supported by state revenues, clinical practice, federal and private grants, substantial annual gifts from a variety of donors, and an endowment in excess of $1.2 billion. UT Southwestern recently completed a comprehensive campaign, Innovations in Medicine, raising in excess of $700 million to secure its place in the top tier of medical institutions. Areas of support include comprehensive programs aimed at discovering and testing new treatments, cures and preventive strategies for cancer, neurological disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, spinal cord injury, mental illness, heart disease and stroke, and pediatric and development disorders.

Reporting to the president, the vice president for development will have overall responsibility for planning, staffing, and executing the Medical Center’s development program. This individual will serve as the chief development officer and will work with the Medical Center’s senior management team and volunteers and leadership at the Southwestern Medical Center Foundation to lead the effort to consolidate, systematize and grow the Medical Center’s fund-raising effort.

The Medical Center seeks a candidate with superb relationship building, leadership, and administrative capabilities, a deep interest in the mission and programs of UT Southwestern, and the ability to build and enhance a world-class development program. Interested individuals may submit materials to or request more information from Manny Berger or Lucy Leske, the Witt/Kieffer consultants supporting UT Southwestern in this search, at UTSWVPD@wittkieffer.com. Electronic submissions are strongly encouraged.
