Full-time Remote, 32 Hours/Week, $92,000 – $112,000 Annual Salary

The Role

As a Director of Strategy at 4Site, you’ll be a strategic partner to nonprofits working to grow their digital fundraising and advocacy programs. Our clients set the fundraising, list growth, and engagement goals. They also typically work with other agency partners, consultants, and internal teams to hit them. And while you won’t own that goal, you will own doing everything we can to support them. Your job is to be the person they rely on for ideation, platform execution, and the opportunities they haven’t spotted yet, collaborating closely with that broader team of partners and staff to move the program forward. You’ll own a portfolio of clients and work across platforms like Engaging Networks and WordPress.

This is not a role where you hand off a strategy deck and move on. You’ll be in the platform building pages, in the data finding the story, and on calls with clients figuring out what to do next. We’re a small team where everyone contributes to the craft, not just the direction.

This is important: In order to be considered for this position, you must have at least five years of direct, hands-on experience using the digital fundraising tools used by nonprofits, either as a consultant or a staff member at a nonprofit. We are especially keen on folks with extensive Engaging Networks, WordPress and Google Analytics knowledge; though people with in-depth understanding of similar platforms will be considered (eg. EveryAction, Drupal, GTM, etc.)

Who Thrives Here

We’ve learned a lot about what makes someone successful at 4Site. If most of these describe you, we should talk:

• You’ve owned a fundraising goal. You’ve been the person responsible for raising a specific dollar amount by a specific date. You’ve planned the campaign, sent the emails, watched the numbers, and adjusted when things weren’t working. You didn’t just support a team that did this. You did it.
• You’ve taught yourself something hard. Maybe it was a CRM you’d never used, or analytics, or HTML email production. The point is you walked into unfamiliar territory and came out competent without waiting for someone to train you.
• You’re genuinely curious about technology. You try new tools because you want to understand them, not because a manager told you to. You have opinions about your tech stack.
• You’re comfortable at the keyboard, not just the whiteboard. You’ve built donation pages, written fundraising copy, pulled reports, set up tracking. The hands-on work isn’t beneath you. It’s where the insight comes from.

Core Responsibilities

1. Strategic and account leadership

You’ll be the lead strategist for a portfolio of 5-8 clients. That means running regular client check-in calls alongside 4Site’s account PM, scoping new projects, auditing analytics setups, advising on fundraising page performance, and helping clients figure out where their next dollar of growth is coming from. You’ll use tools like Google Analytics 4, Looker Studio, and Microsoft Clarity to ground your recommendations in real data, not gut feel. We expect you to proactively identify opportunities clients haven’t asked about yet and bring ideas to the table before problems become urgent.

2. Project execution and team collaboration

You’re accountable for the strategic integrity of projects from scoping through launch. That means close, continuous work with our project managers, designers, and developers. From initial estimates through final QA, you’ll stay embedded with the project team to catch risks early and make sure the finished product reflects what the client actually needs. You have the authority to guide execution and the responsibility to ensure our work meets standards we’re proud of.

3. Business and partnership development

You’ll play a growing role in the agency’s growth:

• Write detailed scopes of work and project estimates for new and existing clients
• Participate in business development from qualifying leads through closing retainer and project contracts
• Deepen existing client relationships to find opportunities for expanded work and ensure successful retainer renewals
• Help build partnerships with complementary agencies and vendors
• Represent 4Site at industry conferences and local events
• Contribute to promotional work that raises both 4Site’s reputation and your own profile in the sector

4. Team contribution and professional growth

As a key member on a small team, you’ll create reusable templates, document processes, and contribute to our shared knowledge base. You’ll mentor colleagues, share what you’re learning, and help build the kind of agency where everyone gets better over time. This role requires you to stay current on nonprofit technology, analytics, and digital fundraising trends through your own initiative. We provide a professional development stipend to support that, but the drive has to come from you.

Required Qualifications

• Communication: Strong communication skills with comfort leading client calls, presenting strategic recommendations clearly, and writing proposals that don’t need heavy editing
• Client and account management: Experience managing across internal teams and external relationships to hit project targets and keep programs moving
• Digital fundraising execution: Direct, hands-on experience running digital fundraising campaigns: building donation pages, writing fundraising emails, managing ad spend, analyzing results, and adjusting tactics to hit revenue goals. You’ve owned a number.
• Technical platforms: Hands-on experience with at least one major nonprofit eCRM (Engaging Networks, EveryAction/Bonterra, Luminate Online, Salesforce NPSP, or similar). Engaging Networks experience is a plus but not required. Comfort working in CMS platforms like WordPress. Ability to pull insights from Google Analytics 4 and Looker Studio.
• AI fluency: You use AI tools to work faster and think more clearly, and you know when they’re helping versus when they’re generating noise
• Self-directed learning: A track record of teaching yourself new platforms, tools, or disciplines without formal training. We’re a small team. You’ll regularly encounter things you haven’t done before, and we need someone who’s energized by that.

Performance and Success Metrics

• Client satisfaction and retention: Measured by the successful renewal of annual retainer contracts and positive client feedback within your portfolio
• Account growth: Net revenue growth from your portfolio through expanded services and new projects
• Project profitability: Projects scoped accurately and delivered within budget
