When writing a MGO job description, I like to think about the values that should be represented in each section of the job description. So that is how I have organized this post. Stick with me, and see if you agree. Here are the sections: The title. There should be two titles. An inside one (that's for HR, etc.) and an outside one â the one that really matters and relates to donors. The inside one is the functional, organizational position title, like major-gifts officer. The outside one should NEVER mention money or fundraising. I suggest donor relations director because it has to do with donors and the relationship with the donors. Who the position reports to. Please only have ONE person. No splits.
