About Givto
We are a team of volunteers who run a unique and innovative online charity fundraising service called Givto.
We are looking to expand our financial team to strengthen our financial robustness.
What difference will you make?
Givto is unique. It’s a bit like a digital version of the supermarket charity token schemes. It enables people to give to different charities but ensure that their personal information is safe. Our users and the charities we support have told us it is already making a difference and enabling charities to reach people who would never have heard of them otherwise. That’s because no matter how big or small a charity is, or what cause they support, they all get a platform with Givto.
We are still relatively new and unknown though, so we have a lot of work to do in 2027. You will play a key role in ensuring that the organisation is financially robust and viable. The more we grow the greater the operational challenges, but the more money we raise for good causes across the UK and beyond.
You will also be joining an amazing team of volunteers who develop and run the Givto service. We are a dynamic and friendly team who love to learn from each other, share best practice, and have fun too.
