Senior Director of Strategic Partnerships & Development

Help Us Bring a Proven Program to Thousands of Combat Veterans and Their Caregivers
Project New Day (https://projectnewday.foundation) is seeking an accomplished nonprofit fundraising leader with a demonstrated record of personally securing major philanthropic gifts and developing strategic partnerships. The successful candidate will leverage established relationships with individual donors, foundations, and organizations serving the military and veteran communities to help Project New Day expand its reach and impact.
From the beginning, Project New Day has pursued a deliberate, three-stage strategy:
- Develop a program that helps members of the combat veteran community move beyond needless emotional suffering and build healthier, more fulfilling lives.
- Demonstrate that the program works, through systematic evaluation, measurable outcomes, and participant feedback.
- Scale the program to reach thousands of people, providing it at no cost to participants.
We have successfully completed the first two stages and are now actively pursuing the third.
Our program is established, our research findings are exceptionally strong, participant feedback is overwhelmingly positive, and we have dozens of highly trained professional coaches ready to support expansion.
We are looking for an experienced leader who can accelerate this growth by developing strategic partnerships, cultivating philanthropic relationships, and helping secure the sustainable funding necessary to reach thousands of participants.
This is a senior-level, part-time opportunity for someone who has already demonstrated success growing nonprofit organizations, particularly those serving veterans or addressing mental health and emotional well-being.
About Project New Day
Project New Day is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 2019 and supported by Mike Sinyard, founder of Specialized Bicycle Components.
Our structured, 12-week virtual coaching program integrates modern neuroscience, trauma-informed approaches, mindfulness, positive psychology, and other evidence-informed methods to help participants develop greater self-understanding, emotional well-being, resilience, and a renewed sense of purpose.
The program is always provided at no cost to participants.
Over the past two years, we have systematically evaluated multiple program cohorts and documented statistically significant improvements in depression, anxiety, pain interference, and other measures of well-being.
Our combined 2024–2025 evaluations found reductions of 47% in depression and 40% in anxiety, along with meaningful improvements in other measures. Participants consistently report high levels of satisfaction with the program.
We have built a comprehensive curriculum, developed the infrastructure to deliver the program virtually, and trained dozens of professional coaches who are prepared to support expansion.
Our focus now is to build the partnerships and sustainable funding that will allow us to serve thousands of participants.
The Position
The Senior Director of Strategic Partnerships & Development will work directly with Project New Day's Executive Director to accelerate organizational growth, expand our partnerships, and develop sustainable sources of philanthropic funding.
This is a senior-level leadership position emphasizing strategic relationships, fundraising, and organizational development rather than day-to-day administrative work.
The position has three principal responsibilities:
1. Strategic Partnerships and Organizational Growth
Identify and establish productive relationships with veterans' organizations, military-affiliated nonprofits, caregiver support organizations, and other institutions that can help Project New Day reach more participants.
Develop partnerships that generate referrals, collaborative initiatives, sponsorships, and opportunities for broader program delivery.
Leverage existing professional relationships to accelerate Project New Day's expansion.
2. Fundraising and Philanthropic Development
Identify and cultivate relationships with individual donors, philanthropic foundations, corporate sponsors, and other potential funding partners.
Communicate a compelling case for supporting Project New Day, drawing on our documented program outcomes, participant experiences, established curriculum, and readiness for expansion.
Develop and implement a practical fundraising strategy that supports long-term organizational growth.
Take a leadership role in engaging prospective major donors and funding partners, building relationships, and securing financial commitments.
3. Leadership and Mentoring
Provide strategic direction and mentorship to a development support professional responsible for grant research, grant writing, funding proposals, and related administrative activities.
Help establish fundraising priorities, identify promising funding opportunities, and guide the preparation of persuasive proposals and presentations.
Review and strengthen funding materials to ensure they effectively communicate Project New Day's mission, demonstrated outcomes, and potential for expansion.
The Senior Director will concentrate on high-level relationships, strategic direction, and securing commitments, while working with support personnel who handle much of the research, writing, and administrative work.
Required Qualifications
This is not an entry-level or training position. We are seeking someone with substantial, directly relevant experience who can contribute immediately.
Candidates must have:
- Demonstrated success growing nonprofit organizations, preferably in veterans' services, mental health, trauma recovery, or related fields.
- A proven record of developing strategic partnerships with nonprofit organizations, foundations, corporations, or other mission-aligned institutions.
- Significant experience in fundraising and donor development, including successfully securing philanthropic support.
- Strong familiarity with military culture and the veteran community, gained through military service, being the spouse or partner of a combat veteran, or substantial professional experience working in military or veterans' organizations.
- An established professional network within the veterans' services, military-affiliated nonprofit, or philanthropic communities, with the demonstrated ability to leverage those relationships to advance Project New Day's mission.
- The ability to make a persuasive case for philanthropic investment, using program outcomes, research findings, and compelling narratives to engage prospective supporters.
- Experience providing leadership, guidance, and mentorship to development or fundraising staff.
- Excellent relationship-building and communication skills, with the confidence and credibility to engage senior nonprofit leaders and prospective donors.
- A genuine passion for improving the lives of combat veterans, their spouses, partners, and caregivers.
We are particularly interested in candidates who have previously helped a veterans' services or mental health nonprofit expand its reach, develop significant partnerships, or secure substantial new funding.
Position Details

Employment: Part-time, approximately 10–15 hours per week
Location: Fully remote, United States only

Why Join Project New Day?
Project New Day offers an unusual opportunity to help expand a program that has been deliberately developed, systematically evaluated, and prepared for growth.
Our founder's philanthropic support has enabled us to build a comprehensive curriculum, establish a network of highly trained coaches, and evaluate program outcomes without charging participants.
We have successfully completed the first two stages of our long-term strategy: developing an effective program and demonstrating its value through systematic evaluation.
We are now actively executing the third stage: scaling the program to reach thousands of combat veterans and their caregivers.
For an experienced nonprofit leader who understands the military community and has a passion for improving veterans' lives, this is an opportunity to make a substantial contribution while working on a flexible, part-time basis.
This opportunity may be particularly attractive to an experienced nonprofit executive seeking a flexible, part-time leadership role with the opportunity to make a significant impact.

Tips for Your Remote Strategic Partnerships Manager Job Search
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote strategic partnerships manager openings from across the U.S. in one place. Filter by role and apply directly to the listings that match your background before they fill, since remote roles attract a larger national applicant pool than in-office positions.
Prove async relationship management in your resume
Remote employers want evidence you can build trust without face-to-face meetings. Call out partnerships you managed over video, email, or Slack, and name the CRM or collaboration tools you used. Quantify outcomes, such as deals closed or pipeline value added, so remote hiring managers can evaluate impact at a glance.
Build a written communication sample before interviewing
Remote strategic partnerships manager interviews often include a written exercise simulating a partner outreach email or proposal. Prepare a sample partner pitch or co-marketing brief in advance. Hiring teams use these to assess whether you can move a relationship forward without a room or a phone call.
Target remote-first companies in their early growth stage
Seed-to-Series B SaaS and fintech companies building their first partnerships function hire remotely by default and value candidates who can own a process from scratch. Search for companies that have recently announced funding rounds and lack a dedicated partnerships hire listed on their public team page.
Remote Strategic Partnerships Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote strategic partnerships manager job?
Remote strategic partnerships manager roles go to candidates who demonstrate they can build and manage relationships without in-person contact. Remote employers screen heavily for written communication, async collaboration, and self-directed deal management. Showing experience closing or structuring partnerships independently, using tools like Slack, Notion, and CRM platforms, and presenting results clearly in writing gives you a real edge over candidates with equivalent in-person experience.
Which companies hire remote strategic partnerships managers?
Remote strategic partnerships manager roles are posted by Rehrig Pacific Company, Stripe, and Kiva.org and others right now, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. The hiring comes largely from remote-first technology companies, SaaS platforms, and distributed media and fintech teams that rely on partnerships to drive growth without a physical sales presence.
Can you get a remote strategic partnerships manager job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry-level partnerships roles are harder to land because employers expect you to manage relationships and move deals forward without close supervision from day one. Early-career candidates break in by showing documented outreach work, co-marketing projects, or affiliate program management, even from freelance or volunteer contexts. Remote-first startups and early-stage SaaS companies are the most open to candidates who can demonstrate initiative and clear written communication in lieu of direct experience.
Do you need a degree for remote strategic partnerships manager jobs?
Not always. Many remote employers care more about demonstrated relationship-building results, deal history, and CRM proficiency than a specific degree. A portfolio showing partnerships you initiated, structured, or grew, along with strong written communication samples, often carries more weight than a diploma. That said, a business, communications, or marketing degree can help you clear automated filters at larger companies with formal hiring pipelines.
Which industries hire the most remote strategic partnerships managers?
The sectors hiring the most remote strategic partnerships managers are Banking & Financial Services, Retail, and Technology & Software, based on current remote listings on Migrate Ate as of November 2026. These industries rely on distributed partnership teams to scale integrations, co-marketing agreements, and channel relationships across geographies without requiring managers to work from a central office.
