GiveDirectly is a non-profit organization dedicated to alleviating poverty by providing direct cash transfers to individuals in need around the world. With a mission to help people living on less than $2. 15 per day, GiveDirectly empowers recipients to make their own financial decisions by delivering unconditional cash directly to them, leveraging mobile money technology. Their innovative approach has led to broad recognition and has been studied in numerous research projects. By bypassing traditional aid mechanisms, GiveDirectly aims to efficiently and scalably transform lives, offering targeted assistance in regions such as Bangladesh, Kenya, and the United States, among others.

📋 Description

• Drive individual giving growth: Own the strategy and performance of individual giving revenue, improving acquisition conversion, recurring giving, retention, upgrades, and donor lifetime value. Build and execute a clear, metrics-driven roadmap grounded in disciplined testing and performance analysis. Strengthen monthly giving and optimize key revenue moments, including year-end and emergency campaigns. Maintain a giving experience in line with GiveDirectly’s brand and voice. • Build and scale a bequests function: Design and launch a repeatable, scalable legacy giving program. Hire and manage a dedicated Bequests/Legacy Lead, define supporter journeys and stewardship workflows, manage external partners, and build a measurable pipeline of confirmed legacy pledgers. • Improve donor experience and lifecycle performance: Optimize the end-to-end donation experience — including landing pages, forms, checkout, payment options, and upgrade flows — in partnership with Engineering and Product. Own lifecycle communications across web, email, and SMS, ensuring strong segmentation, tracking, and performance dashboards. • Lead for execution and future expansion: Manage and develop Growth Managers with clear goals and operating cadence. Oversee third-party and international donation partners. Once core growth and legacy initiatives are established, assess and scope geographic expansion opportunities in a disciplined, data-driven way.

🎯 Requirements

• 8+ years of experience in digital fundraising, growth, ecommerce, or product-led revenue roles, with clear accountability for acquisition and retention performance. • Strong analytical skills and a track record of driving measurable results through structured testing, funnel optimization, and cohort analysis. • Ability to build clear growth models (acquisition, conversion, retention, LTV) and translate them into focused quarterly priorities. • Ability to create (and the taste to judge) exceptionally compelling content in the GiveDirectly voice that engages, motivates, converts and retains donors across major channel types; email, web, social, and advertising. • Experience hiring, managing, and developing high-performing teams in lean environments. • Comfort partnering cross-functionally with Engineering, Product, Data, Marketing, and Fundraising Operations to ship improvements and build scalable systems. • Deep alignment with GiveDirectly’s mission and values is essential.

🏖️ Benefits

• A supportive team that works hard and cares hard • A robust health benefits plan (exact details will vary by country) • Flexible paid time off that staff is encouraged to take • Allowances for desk set-up and learning and development
