Today, AAAS is the world’s largest multi-disciplinary scientific society, with nearly 120,000 individual members in over 91 countries, and a leading publisher of cutting-edge research through our Science family of journals. We strive to promote and defend the integrity of science and its use, provide a voice for science on societal issues and strengthen and diversify the science and technology workforce.

The AAAS is seeking an experienced Senior Major Gifts Officer to join its growing philanthropy team. There is an urgency for AAAS to take their efforts to the next level, and against this backdrop, the board and executive leadership have made philanthropy and strategic partnerships a growing priority.
