Database Consultant, Strategic Information Services

ABOUT CAMPBELL & COMPANY

Campbell & Company (C&C) is a national consulting firm that serves nonprofit organizations and institutions in all sectors, including education, environment, healthcare, human services, arts and culture, associations and membership organizations, and civic and public affairs. The firm is based in Chicago and Seattle with regional staff in California, Florida, Indiana, Ohio, Maine, Missouri, Texas, and Washington, DC. Our team-based approach enhances our work and is built into our company’s structure.

We work with organizations at critical points in their growth and development, when our expertise and partnership can have a powerful impact. We have four primary service lines: fundraising, communications, executive search, and strategic information services. Our culture of innovation fueled the development of Campbell & Company’s first software as a service product, Beam Insights, which aims to address advances in technology to support fundraising. We strive to work in multi-service teams to provide the right balance of expertise, experience, and seniority for each client.

THE POSITION

From determining philanthropic potential and identifying the prospects who will help realize it – to providing the tools needed to manage relationships and effectively leverage the power of our clients’ resources – the Strategic Information Services (SIS) Division of Campbell & Company puts data to work.
