Vice President of Marketing

Givzey:

Givzey, which is recognized as one of the fastest-growing and most innovative platforms serving nonprofits, is on a mission to help organizations unlock more generosity through smarter, autonomous, and more personalized giving experiences.

The company, founded only three years ago, delivers two flagship products. Givzey’s Gift Agreement Platform transforms and simplifies the multi-year gift process, empowering nonprofits to secure, manage, and forecast multi-year commitments with unprecedented ease. Givzey’s Version2.ai invented the world’s first Autonomous AI fundraisers, known as Virtual Engagement Officers (VEOs), which independently generate revenue. Unlike AI enablement tools that enhance staff efficiency, Version2's autonomous approach expands capacity through AI workers that operate donor portfolios independently, raising $4M+ to date, including individual gifts as large as $45,000. 

Givzey is led by CEO Adam Martel, who previously founded and scaled another successful nonprofit fundraising software company, Gravyty. Under his leadership, Givzey has experienced strong early adoption and rapid market validation. Recently, Givzey closed its Series A funding round led by Telescope Partners, bringing the company to a valuation of over $100 million, enabling accelerated growth.

As Givzey | Version2.ai enters its next phase of growth, the company seeks an ambitious Vice President of Marketing who will lead and scale the marketing organization. Reporting into the CEO, we’re hiring a VP of Marketing who can turn Givzey into the clear category leader for autonomous fundraising, tighten our narrative, and use marketing to improve win rates and sales cycles while also unlocking new foundational growth channels.
