About GivzeyJoin the Future of Fundraising at Givzey!Givzey is one of the fastest-growing and most innovative technology companies serving the nonprofit sector, on a mission to unlock more generosity through AI-powered donor engagement. At the center of that innovation is Version2.ai, the world’s first Autonomous AI fundraisers—Virtual Engagement Officers (VEOs)—designed to independently manage donor engagement and generate revenue. Unlike traditional AI tools that simply make staff more efficient, VEOs expand fundraising capacity by acting as AI workers that operate donor portfolios, build relationships, and secure gifts on their own. In just three years, Givzey’s platform has already helped organizations raise $10M+ through autonomous engagement, including individual gifts as large as $100,000. Alongside this breakthrough technology, Givzey’s Gift Agreement Platform modernizes the multi-year giving process, enabling nonprofits to secure, manage, and forecast commitments with unprecedented ease.Before You Read FurtherIf you’ve never worked in a fundraising shop — as a gift officer, development director, annual giving manager, or in a sales role where your buyers were VPs of Advancement and Chief Development Officers — this role isn’t for you.That’s not a knock. It’s a filter. The executives who decide whether to expand their investment in our platform speak a specific language: lapse rates, planned giving pipelines, campaign performance against goal, major gift qualification. If you have to learn that language on the job, you’ll lose the room before you’ve built the relationship.If you speak it already, keep reading.About the RoleVersion2.ai’s Virtual Engagement Officer is deployed across 200+ fundraising organizations — universities, nonprofits, healthcare foundations. Every one of those deployments generates data: donor give-again rates, gift size changes, lapse recovery, cadence performance, segment behavior. Collectively, it’s one of the most detailed datasets on autonomous AI-driven fundraising in existence.Most of those clients started with one VEO. Almost all of them have room for more.Right now, the conversation about expanding stops at the program manager level. Our Customer Success Managers work closely with Annual Giving directors and frontline fundraising staff — the people who run the VEO day to day. Those contacts see the results and understand the use case for additional VEOs. But they’re rarely the ones who can write the check.We’re hiring an Account Executive, Expansion to own the senior relationship at every existing client — the VP of Advancement, the Chief Development Officer, the President’s office — and build the business case that turns a successful deployment into a broader institutional partnership.This is a farmer role, not a hunter. Your pipeline is already installed. Your job is to cultivate it.What You’ll OwnSenior Relationship DevelopmentMap the decision-making structure at each assigned client account — identify the VP, CDO, or executive who controls budget for expanded deploymentsBuild and maintain direct relationships with senior leaders at 50–100 active client accountsPosition yourself as a strategic partner to leadership, not a vendor checking in — bring data, peer benchmarks, and ROI framing to every conversationStay close enough to each account that expansion conversations happen proactively, not reactivelyPartnering with Customer SuccessWork hand-in-hand with the assigned CSM on each account — they own the day-to-day program relationship, you own the executive relationshipLet the CSM surface performance data, use case gaps, and expansion signals; you translate those into a business case for senior leadershipNever disrupt the CSM’s relationship with their primary contact — your outreach to leadership should feel coordinated and additive, not competitiveParticipate in strategic account reviews to identify upsell timing and framingUpsell ExecutionDevelop tailored expansion proposals for each account — additional VEOs, new program areas, broader donor segmentsLead pricing conversations, negotiate upsell terms, and close expansion agreementsManage HubSpot opportunity records for all active upsell deals with accurate staging and forecastingCoordinate contract paperwork on expansion orders with our Deal DeskWhat We’re Looking ForRequiredMeaningful exposure to fundraising, advancement, or development — either as a practitioner (gift officer, development director, annual giving manager) or through sustained sales experience selling into advancement offices. You need to walk into a conversation with a VP of Advancement and speak their language, not learn it3–7 years of SaaS sales experience, with meaningful time in an expansion, renewal, or account management role — not just new logo huntingDemonstrated ability to build relationships with VP and C-suite buyers — you’re comfortable in a room with a Chief Development OfficerTrack record of closing upsell or expansion deals, not just managing accountsEmotional intelligence to navigate a two-relationship structure: respecting the CSM’s frontline relationship while cultivating your own at the executive levelStrong written and verbal communication — your executive outreach has to land without being pushyHubSpot or equivalent CRM proficiencyNice to HaveExperience selling into higher education, nonprofit, or healthcare advancement/development officesFamiliarity with fundraising operations, planned giving, major gifts, or annual giving programsExperience at a company with fewer than 500 employees where you had to build process, not just follow itWhat This Is NotThis is not a new logo role. You won’t be cold-calling prospects or building pipeline from scratch. If you thrive on the hunt and find account management tedious, this isn’t the right fit.This is also not a passive renewal role. You’re expected to proactively develop executive relationships, build expansion business cases, and close deals. Waiting for clients to raise their hand is not the job.
