We are hiring a high-performing Automation & CRM Systems Specialist. This is a specialized technical role responsible for architecting the entire funding-to-impact infrastructure for non-profit clients,organizations scaling their funding, outreach, and operational systems through automation.

This role is ideal for technical systems builders who don’t just “manage CRMs,” but understand how to design and connect complex funding ecosystems (HubSpot, n8n, Zapier, Instantly, Candid, Grantable, Zeffy, Google Ad Grants, Looker Studio) to automate grant discovery, partnership development, donation flows, and impact reporting.

You must understand both technical execution and funding logic to ensure the systems you build actually drive measurable outcomes across grant acquisition, donor engagement, and organizational growth.

Work Model Remote | Part Time / 6 Months Contract
