Development Manager Jobs in Maine: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a development manager in Maine?

Most development manager roles in Maine require a bachelor's degree in business, nonprofit management, engineering, or a related field, followed by several years of experience in a relevant functional area. Maine does not issue a state license specific to development managers. Candidates typically move into the role from positions in fundraising, project coordination, business development, or software engineering, and many Maine employers favor candidates with a Project Management Professional credential or a CFRE for nonprofit-focused roles.

How much do development managers make in Maine?

Development managers in Maine earn a median of about $115,920 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $87,360 for the lowest 10% to over $184,000 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire development managers in Maine?

Employers hiring development managers in Maine right now include Rexel USA, IDEXX Laboratories, and ITW, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of July 2026. Maine's healthcare systems, technology firms, and established nonprofits tend to post the most consistent openings throughout the year.

Which Maine cities have the most development manager jobs?

Scarborough, Portland, and Westbrook account for the highest concentration of development manager openings in Maine. Portland drives the largest share of listings because it is home to the state's most active healthcare, technology, and professional services employers, while Augusta and Bangor add volume through state government agencies, regional hospital networks, and long-standing nonprofit organizations headquartered in those cities.

Are there remote development manager jobs in Maine?

Yes, and they are more common than in many fields. About 27% of development manager openings tied to Maine are remote or hybrid as of July 2026, reflecting how much of the work centers on planning, stakeholder communication, and strategic oversight rather than on-site operations. Business development and software product development roles tend to offer the most remote flexibility, while fundraising roles tied to Maine institutions more often require local presence.

How can I get hired as a development manager in Maine with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is moving into a development coordinator or associate project manager role at a mid-size Maine employer and building toward management. MaineHealth and its affiliated hospitals run structured onboarding programs that advance coordinators into leadership, and technology firms like IDEXX Laboratories and Tilson hire associate product or business development roles that feed the management pipeline. Earning a Project Management Professional credential or completing a CFRE candidacy while in a coordinator role signals readiness and gives candidates a concrete edge in Maine's competitive nonprofit and healthcare markets.

Where can I find and apply to development manager jobs in Maine?

You can find and apply to development manager jobs in Maine on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings tied to Maine employers. Search the available roles, identify the ones that match your background and location preferences, and apply directly to each position through the listing.
