Job description

Who we are

Montreal (CAD 110,000+) 🇨🇦 7+ years experience 🧪

🌬 Zeffy is leading a transformation in the social economy with its unique zero-fee fundraising platform, currently trusted by over 30,000 nonprofits throughout North America.

🚀 Experiencing a 300% year-over-year growth, we’re just getting started! There’s no better time to join us, as you’ll be among the first 30 employees set to make a tangible impact from day one.

🌱 If that’s not compelling enough for you, we are also proud to hold a B Corp certification.

About the role

Zeffy supports 30,000 nonprofits with the only truly free fundraising platform.

The challenge? Many platforms claim to be free but typically charge an average fee of 5% per transaction, totalling $3 billion annually in North America.

As Zeffy’s first Senior Brand Manager (reporting directly to the CEO), your mission is to communicate Zeffy’s unique value—amplifying nonprofit impact by eliminating fundraising fees— and to drive organic growth as Zeffy becomes the obvious choice for U.S. nonprofits.

Specifically, your mission will be to:

  • Find Zeffy’s most effective messaging by gaining deep understanding of nonprofit challenges, the fundraising landscape, and how Zeffy’s vision and brand fits within it.

  • Collaborate with internal teams to integrate this new messaging into existing channels such as paid social, Google ads, and our website, aiming to boost their performance.

  • Launch and scale new organic channels by testing initiatives. We don’t know yet which channel will scale best, but we have intuitions that the three following should be tested first

    • Public Relations

    • Social media

    • Community

🌟 Success in one year means significantly increasing the number of new nonprofits joining Zeffy each month through your work on aligning existing channels and scaling new ones. Long-term success will be measured by the number of new nonprofits joining Zeffy through organic channels.


Preferred experience

  • You have 7+ years experience as a Brand Director or Senior Brand Manager, with a proven track record of positioning brands with the result of scaling organic channels and driving top-of-mind brand awareness.

  • You possess excellent written and oral English skills and are known as an exceptional storyteller. You have the ability to express complex messages in simple, impactful ways

  • You prioritize based on impact, and always try to find the more effective approach to reach your goals.

  • A plus: You have experience working in the U.S. market.

Research shows that candidates from underrepresented backgrounds often don’t apply for roles if they don’t check every box. If this applies to you and you are interested in the position, we’d love to hear from you.
