Job description

Senior Client Services and Onboarding Manager-Full Time Remote




Our Organization

CDP, a Boston-based public benefit corporation, uses the collaborative fundraising model to improve the operational efficiency and revenue generation capacity of the public media system. CDP currently provides more than 230 NPR and PBS stations with outsourced marketing, data analytics, fundraising, and technology services. These services help stations raise more net income, grow their donor files faster, lower their fundraising costs, and free up development talent allowing stations to better focus on local engagement. Since its inception as a business unit with the WGBH Educational Foundation and subsequent evolution to a freestanding entity, CDP has driven $150 million in incremental net value back to stations and has become the most widely adopted station service in the history of public broadcasting.


Just as CDP is committed to supporting public media organizations around the country, we are equally committed to supporting each of our team in their own professional development.
