GiveCampus is the world's leading fundraising platform for non-profit educational institutions. Trusted by millions of donors and 1,300+ colleges, universities, and K-12 schools, our mission is to help advance the quality, the affordability, and the accessibility of education. At our current pace, we will facilitate $100 billion in charitable giving over the next decade–enough money to send more than 1 million students to college, tuition-free.

GiveCampus is backed by leading investors including Y Combinator, but we’re also practitioners of Sustainable Growth: we’ve made the Inc. 5000 list of America's fastest-growing private companies each of the last five years and we’ve been profitable nine of the last 10. In 2025, we celebrated a $140 million growth investment that included a major liquidity event for GiveCampus employees–the second in less than three years. 

Our purpose-driven team of 130+ is located in 30+ states across the US: team members work from anywhere they choose. We have a beautiful 12,000sf office in Washington, DC that is available for people to use whenever they want, and we regularly organize team meet-ups, visit partner institutions, and host retreats in various locations. 

While we operate at meaningful scale, we’re still small relative to the commercial and social good opportunities in front of us. Every GiveCampus employee plays a meaningful role in shaping what comes next, and we're growing the team in support of our ambitious plans–including a $100 million investment in AI product development. If you believe in the transformative power of education and want to join a fast-growing, mission-driven company, you’ll fit right in.

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 an Account Executive who will be responsible for selling GiveCampus solutions to universities, two and four-year colleges. You will work closely with diverse stakeholders at these schools, ranging from front-line fundraisers, online giving, advancement services, and senior executives at the VP and Chancellor level. Depending on the candidate and the shape of our evolving sales organization, you may work on new logo acquisition, installed base sales, or a combination of both. 

Responsibilities will include:

  • Achieving and exceeding your annual quota.
  • Knowing your territory and presenting a clear territory plan.
  • Executing a complex sales process, leading the cycle from prospecting to contracting. 
  • Building relationships with key stakeholders.
  • Representing our solution and our value with knowledge and skill.
  • Promoting our mission and connecting with our prospects with authenticity and empathy.
  • Managing your pipeline with rigor and discipline.
  • Contributing to a culture of accountability and a team selling approach
  • Collaborating across the organization, including with marketing and partner success.
  • Contributing to a team culture focused on continuous improvement, winning together, and making a positive impact on our partners

What we are looking for: 

  • 2-3+ years experience in SaaS sales.
  • Proven track record of exceeding sales quotas and closing 6-figure deals.
  • Experience navigating complex selling situations and large institutions with many stakeholders.
  • Experience selling to senior executives with a value-first approach.
  • Understanding of sales process and methodologies, with the know-how and experience to navigate sometimes-long sales cycles and set up for success.
  • Strong desire to be a “builder” — contributing to shaping a best-in-class sales organization.
  • Dedication to what we’re building at GiveCampus, and to helping advance the quality, the affordability, and the accessibility of education

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”).

Please note this role requires travel of 25-30%.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
