Are you C+C (competitive and compassionate), and uncomfortable without accountability to results? Do you prospect and ask for the business in your sleep? Are you a roll-up-your-sleeves person, that can both conceptualize big picture sales strategy, AND execute on every sales tactic, right down to creating the lead list, making the sales call, and whooping out loud when you make the sale?

- You’ll have plenty of opportunity to do really cool, meaningful work that will advance your skills
- You may even get a chance to go to Uganda to see our programs in action
- You’ll have great time off benefits, including a paid, organization-wide closure over the holidays
