Are you passionate about helping nonprofits do more good in the world by providing them with the tools to make a greater impact? Do you have deep connections within the nonprofit community and a knack for problem-solving? Do you want to work with a really awesome team of people? If so, we’d love to talk to you about joining EveryAction.

EveryAction (the nonprofit-focused arm of NGP VAN) is looking for a highly motivated self-starter to join our team as a Sales Engineer. The EveryAction platform is built by some of the leading experts in the Nonprofit technology space and provides an integrated communication and fundraising platform to nonprofits or all sizes. 

We’re a successful, growing company of over 300+ people based in Washington, D.C. and Boston, MA.  We’ve been recognized as one of the fastest growing companies in America by Inc. Magazine for the past ten years in a row and one of the top 50 fastest growing companies in the DC area by both the Washington Business Journal and SmartCEO.

Day to Day: 

As a Sales Engineer, you will be based in our DC office. In this role, you’ll serve as a technical resource and expert for the EveryAction Sales team. This includes joining in on product demonstrations for prospective clients to provide a technical perspective, assisting Account Executives with RFPs, training Account Executives on advanced features and new product releases, as well as working across internal departments to ensure that clients are set up for success in the pre-sale phase.

Requirements:

• 5 - 15 years of experience working with nonprofits, nonprofit consulting firms, or as a vendor of these spaces.
• A background in the day-to-day work of using technology to achieve fundraising, advocacy, digital communications, organizing goals – we’re looking for a practitioner who has been in our clients’ shoes and can relate to them on that level.
• Experience with EveryAction or NGP VAN products, including ActionKit and BSD Tools, is highly preferred. Experience with other CRMs such as Luminate Online, Engaging Networks, Salsa, Salesforce, and Raiser’s Edge is also highly valued.
• You’re a self-starter who is excited to identify places where you can jump in and drive results. When you notice something that could be improved, you start exploring possible solutions. When you don’t know an answer, you go find it.
• Agility – You’re able to pivot quickly and prioritize tasks with varying levels of importance to meet expectations without dropping the ball. Sometimes you’ll be working on long-term projects and sometimes you’ll be putting out fires, so staying flexible and organized is key.
• An excellent conversationalist. Much like the ability to switch between tasks, this role requires a team-player who can galvanize internal stakeholders. You’re equally comfortable presenting to a major prospective client, translating product-speak for a non-technical person.
• Well-developed oral and written communication skills; particularly the ability to craft effective proposals and presentations.
• A team player who can adapt within a growing company and changing environment.

Compensation and Benefits:

At EveryAction, you will enjoy a progressive and open-minded workplace where we have:

• A fun and relaxed company culture, including enjoying periodic company retreats to warm places with beaches
• Casual Friday every day
• An unusually generous set of benefits, including up to 12 weeks paid parental leave, profit sharing, 100% premium-paid health/dental, and an ongoing education allowance
