Development Coordinator Jobs in Texas: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a development coordinator in Texas?
Most development coordinator roles in Texas require a bachelor's degree in nonprofit management, communications, business, or a related field, though the role carries no state-issued license. Texas employers, particularly large hospital systems and universities, strongly favor candidates with Certified Fund Raising Executive credentials or coursework from the Association of Fundraising Professionals, which maintains active Texas chapters in Houston, Dallas, and Austin. Hands-on experience with donor databases and grant writing accelerates hiring.
Which companies hire development coordinators in Texas?
Companies currently hiring development coordinators in Texas include Tesla, Stantec, and Islamic Relief USA, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Texas's deep concentration of large nonprofit hospital networks, flagship public universities, and major foundations makes it one of the more active development coordinator markets in the country.
Which Texas cities have the most development coordinator jobs?
Houston, Austin, and Dallas account for the most development coordinator openings in Texas. Houston leads because of its dense cluster of major medical institutions and nonprofit organizations, Dallas draws volume from its corporate philanthropy sector and large foundations, and Austin's rapid growth in higher education and tech-adjacent nonprofits has added steady hiring in the capital region.
Are there remote development coordinator jobs in Texas?
Yes, though they are less common than for purely analytical roles, since development coordinators often need to attend donor events, campus visits, and internal fundraising meetings in person. About 21% of development coordinator openings tied to Texas are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, with the remote share concentrated in grants writing and donor data management responsibilities rather than front-facing relationship roles.
How can I get hired as a development coordinator in Texas with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is through a development assistant or annual fund associate role at a Texas university or large nonprofit hospital, where structured onboarding and mentorship are built into the department. Institutions such as the University of Houston, Texas A&M University, and Baylor Scott and White Health regularly post entry-level development positions that do not require prior fundraising experience. Volunteering with an Association of Fundraising Professionals Texas chapter and earning the CFRE International credential gives candidates a measurable edge in screening.
