GiveCampus is the world's leading fundraising platform for non-profit educational institutions. Trusted by 1,300+ colleges, universities, and K-12 schools, our mission is to help advance the quality, the affordability, and the accessibility of education. We received a seed investment from Y Combinator in 2015 and have pursued a strategy of 'Sustainable Growth' ever since: achieving six consecutive years of profitability and positive cash-flow while more than quadrupling our revenue, our customer base, and our team. In 2022, we raised $50 million to accelerate the next stage of our growth.

Through The GiveCampus Social Mobility Initiative, we've donated $1 million in free fundraising support for programs that help low-income students, first-generation students, and underrepresented minorities. And in 2022 and 2023, we were named to Y Combinator's Top Companies list and the Inc. 5000 list of America's fastest-growing private companies.

While we operate at meaningful scale (we've facilitated more than $6 billion in charitable giving), we’re still small relative to the commercial and social good opportunities in front of us. Every GiveCampus employee has a substantial impact on our trajectory, and we're growing to help schools achieve even greater results.

Our purpose-driven team of 120+ is located across the US: team members work from anywhere they choose. We have a beautiful 12,000 sf office in Washington, DC that is available for people to use whenever they want, and we regularly organize team meet-ups, events, and retreats in various locations. We're looking to expand our team with diverse and collaborative doers who believe in our mission and the transformative power of affordable, high-quality education.
Location: This is a remote-first role based in the U.S. While we embrace flexible, distributed work, we also value in-person connection. Team members are expected to attend multiple company-wide and team-specific onsites throughout the year.

Givecampus is looking for a Director of Strategic Accounts to recruit, lead, and develop a team of Strategic Account Executives who sell GiveCampus solutions to the top ~10% of higher education institutions in the United States.

Responsibilities will include:

  • Lead a team of 4-6 Account Executives.
  • Drive attainment of individual and team ARR goals
  • Work in close collaboration with AEs to source and drive deals to closure.
  • Facilitate strategic deal reviews and account planning.
  • Track prospecting and follow-up activity, driving the quantity and quality of AE outreach.
  • Develop and execute rep-specific coaching and development plans. Review, evaluate, and coach based on in-meeting participation and reviewing call recordings.
  • Manage team forecast accuracy, including enforcing data hygiene
  • Partner with Marketing, Enablement, and Partner Success to optimize full-funnel performance.

Recruit, onboard, and ramp new AEs.
Please note this position does require travel of 30-35%

What we're looking for:

  • 8+ years SaaS software experience with 3+ years in Saas sales management
  • People management: recruiting and performance management
  • Full cycle sales: exceptional background in driving rep prospecting, deal development, negotiation, and relationship building
  • Installed base sales: how to sell to existing accounts
  • Field-based orientation; be out there with the reps

Bonus Points:

  • Startup experience, with the proven ability to “find a way” and get things done without being overly reliant on process and structure around you.
  • Strong knowledge of roles and responsibilities in fundraising and development, especially at educational institutions, with prior fundraising experience ideal.
  • Experience with non-profit fundraising, crowdfunding, peer-to-peer fundraising, or other fundraising activities.
  • Volunteer experience helping a school raise money or engage its alumni (e.g., as a “class agent”, “class chair/ambassador”, or “reunion committee member”).
