Optimize Tor's open source, privacy-first CRM (CiviCRM) to build donor engagement using thoughtful automation and drip messaging
Collaborate with cross-team stakeholders to design and execute time-bound campaigns, including Tor's annual year-end fundraising campaign
Monitor and analyze progress towards goals and use this analysis to present suggestions for improvement
Contribute to short and long-term fundraising team planning and evaluation of strategic efforts
Represent the Tor Project in-person, at virtual events, and with a variety of external stakeholders
Support Director of Fundraising and Executive Director in donor relationship management
Collaborate closely with Fundraising Coordinator to facilitate timely gift acknowledgements and accurate reporting
Core requirements
Capacity to self-start, self-motivate, and remain persistent
Proven track record of setting and achieving nonprofit revenue targets

Experience writing content for email and social media campaigns and adapting messaging for different audiences
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build relationships both on and offline
Strong analytical skills, with the ability to use campaign performance data to inform fundraising strategy
At ease learning new technology and resilient in the face of technical roadblocks
Deeply committed to building a fundraising practice that prioritizes donor privacy
Ability to travel to in-person events (10% travel)
Preferred qualifications
Experience working remotely with a globally distributed team
Experience translating highly technical material into easy, approachable language
Mastery of CRMs and email automation software
Experience fundraising in an online-first or online-only environment

Unlike some nonprofits that focus solely on donors who give at high levels, the Tor Project has the unique opportunity to do something different — to amplify the collective power of our small-dollar donors. We're looking for someone to help us better connect and engage with this global base of supporters.
This is an excellent opportunity to take ownership of an underdeveloped program and build it up from the ground.
The Job
We are seeking an Individual Giving Manager with 3-5 years of experience in a smiliar role to take the lead on defining and executing the Tor Project's strategic approach to acquisition, cultivation, solicitation, and stewardship of Tor donors who give less than $1,000 annually. This role reports to the Director of Fundraising and collaborates with the Fundraising Coordinator.
The Tor Project's approach to fundraising doesn't use privacy-invading tactics. We don't track whether or not donors have clicked on an email, a link, or a button; we don't buy or sell donor lists; we don't use invasive wealth assessment tools; and we aim to minimize the amount of information we collect during the donation process. The Individual Giving Manager must be able to prioritize donor privacy when conducting their duties and responsibilities.
Duties & responsibilities
Take ownership of the Tor Project's annual and monthly giving strategies with the primary goal of increasing small-dollar donor retention
Design and implement structures, processes, and policies required to execute these strategies
Create and maintain high-quality documentation about these structures, processes, and policies
Optimize Tor's open source, privacy-first CRM (CiviCRM) to build donor engagement using thoughtful automation and drip messaging
Collaborate with cross-team stakeholders to design and execute time-bound campaigns, including Tor's annual year-end fundraising campaign
Monitor and analyze progress towards goals and use this analysis to present suggestions for improvement
Contribute to short and long-term fundraising team planning and evaluation of strategic efforts
Represent the Tor Project in-person, at virtual events, and with a variety of external stakeholders
Support Director of Fundraising and Executive Director in donor relationship management
Collaborate closely with Fundraising Coordinator to facilitate timely gift acknowledgements and accurate reporting
Core requirements
Capacity to self-start, self-motivate, and remain persistent
Proven track record of setting and achieving nonprofit revenue targets
Experience with CRMs and email automation software
Experience writing content for email and social media campaigns and adapting messaging for different audiences
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build relationships both on and offline
Strong analytical skills, with the ability to use campaign performance data to inform fundraising strategy
At ease learning new technology and resilient in the face of technical roadblocks
Deeply committed to building a fundraising practice that prioritizes donor privacy
Ability to travel to in-person events (10% travel)
Preferred qualifications
Experience working remotely with a globally distributed team
Experience translating highly technical material into easy, approachable language
Mastery of CRMs and email automation software
Experience fundraising in an online-first or online-only environment
This is a full-time, remote position. Salary for this position will range from $77,000 - $85,000 USD (based on candidate experience) and there is voluntary opt-in salary transparency for employees and contractors. The organization is currently experimenting with a four day workweek.
