Now about you....
You are an independent and experienced digital fundraiser. You’ll hit the ground running, and have extensive networks that you can leverage. You’re happy to self manage, and can identify when you need to bring in others. You’re excited by the promise of Raisely, and the opportunity to own our business in North America.
You are an excellent communicator. You know how to make connections, are a great networker and can build relatedness quickly and confidently.
You are ambitious and love to close the deal or hit targets. You might have worked in a Sales environment before and understand the methodology. You have a track record of hitting and exceeding goals.
You’re entrepreneurial. You see opportunities to test, create and grow where others might not. You love the idea of working for a Saas.
You care about making a difference. We’re all here because we want to make the world better (and by that we mean a carbon-neutral utopia with world peace and just laws, where all people are treated the same with equal opportunity to thrive). So you’ve gotta want that too!
Ok, and why work with us?
You spend nearly 2000 hours of your life at work, each year. That’s a huge commitment, so we can promise that every hour you’re spending with Raisely, you’re making the world a better place. Pretty great perk, hey?
Plus, the more you help us grow, the bigger our impact gets. And by that we’re talking hundreds of millions of dollars big.
Working at Raisely is unique. If you have a great idea, we’ll help you make it happen. You'll play a pivotal role in the success of hundreds of fundraising campaigns on our platform, and help shape our company as we grow.
