About givestar
givestar is building the next generation of charitable giving. Our platform is designed to make fundraising more social, engaging, and rewarding for the people raising money, the charities they support, and the events that bring them together.
While many of the world's established fundraising platforms were built more than two decades ago, givestar was created around how people use technology today: mobile-first, connected, and community-driven.
And we're well beyond the idea stage.
givestar has already helped raise around $70m for charity, built a community of approximately 750,000 users, and works with major charities and fundraising events. With around 10,000 new users joining each week, the foundations are in place for the next stage of growth.
Following a $12m Series A, we're now moving from startup to scale-up. We're investing across our leadership, product, engineering, and commercial teams, while accelerating our expansion into the US.
About the role
We're looking for a Head of UK Charity Sales & Account Management to lead and develop our UK charity commercial function across Sales, Account Management, and Enterprise.
You'll be responsible for the day-to-day performance of these teams, turning our commercial strategy into clear priorities and targets, and making sure we follow through on them.
As givestar grows, you'll help put the structure, processes, and accountability in place to grow UK charity revenue across new business, retention, and expansion.
What you'll be doing
UK charity performance
- Own day-to-day delivery against UK charity revenue targets across new business, retention, and expansion.
- Turn the CRO's commercial strategy into clear team and individual targets.
- Own forecasting across the function, keeping on top of gaps, risks, and opportunities.
