USA Nordic has announced that Sarah Anderson has joined the governing body as development director.
She will focus on "strengthening existing partnerships" as well as "identifying new opportunities", "developing strategic relationships" and "assisting in the planning and execution of fundraising events".
Her role has been created especially to "capitalise on the organisation's continued growth", USA Nordic said.
Anderson is a parent of two ski jumpers who practice at the Nordic Ski Club in Park City, Utah.
"Her extensive skills in organisation and fundraising were evident in a variety of volunteer roles," USA Nordic said.
USA Nordic is based in Park City, a venue for the Salt Lake City 2002 Winter Olympics and Paralympics.
"Initially, a lack of understanding my daughter's sport made me become more involved at a club level," Anderson said.
"It just snowballed into volunteering my time on a larger scale."
