You treat brand as a growth lever, not a creative deliverable
You can talk evidence and measurement without reducing everything to dashboard theater
You are comfortable with tradeoffs where the payoff is months, not days, and you do not need instant feedback to stay confident
You can operate at altitude and still get your hands dirty when needed
You have taste, but you do not confuse taste with strategy
You can lead strong people without managing by performance art
Benefits
A senior seat in a firm trying to fix what fundraising gets wrong about growth.
The chance to further build DonorVoice into a known, trusted brand, and to help nonprofits craving change do the same.
A culture where steel sharpens steel, learning never stops, and “best practice” is treated as a hypothesis, not a rule.
A leadership team that cares about rigor, not theatrics.
Senior leaders who materially shape enterprise value may become eligible to purchase equity over time.
