Animal Welfare Fundraising Consultant

WAGGLE FOUNDATION POSITION: Animal Welfare Fundraising Consultant REPORTS TO: Director of Animal Welfare & Creator Partnerships *Must LOVE Animals* Are you passionate about animal welfare — and energized by the challenge of winning people over to a cause worth fighting for? Waggle's Fundraising Consultants are the growth engine behind our network of animal welfare partners: You'll prospect for new shelter and rescue partners, make the case for what Waggle can do for the animals in their care, and guide each one from first conversation to a thriving fundraising campaign. The role blends relationship-building, persuasive storytelling, and results-driven account management — all in service of animals who need it most. You'll own a portfolio of nonprofit shelters and rescues: finding them, pitching them, onboarding them, building their fundraising campaigns, and helping them succeed on the Waggle platform. This is a part-time, US-based role (remote) with room for growth — including a larger portfolio and more responsibility as you build a track record of results. *** We encourage you to include a resume/cover letter. Please describe why you'd be a great fit for this role. *** RESPONSIBILITIES Prospect & outreach: Identify and reach out to shelters and rescues who could benefit from Waggle, and make a compelling case for partnering with us Pitch & onboard new partners: Guide prospective partners from first conversation to signed-on, answering questions and working through hesitations along the way Build & manage your pipeline: Grow partner engagement; move rescues through each stage and keep momentum moving, from first outreach to active campaign Create & manage campaigns Manage your account portfolio: Grow existing partner relationships and spot opportunities for repeat campaigns and continued success Track & report activity: Keep CRM records up to date (HubSpot), log outreach and follow-up activity, and stay on top of partner communication through our internal tools (Slack, Asana) QUALIFICATIONS A love and passion for animals: This work is meaningful, and our partners need to feel that you care about the mission (not just the task). Comfortable making the ask: You can confidently reach out to someone new, make the case for Waggle, and guide them toward a yes — all while keeping the animals' needs front and center. Goal-oriented: You like having a target to work toward and take ownership of your outreach and pipeline. Organized self-starter: Able to manage multiple accounts and deadlines independently in a remote, async-first environment. Strong written communication: You'll write fundraising campaigns and partner outreach that move people to action. Clear, empathetic, and compelling writing is essential. Relationship-oriented: You understand that long-term partnerships require trust, consistency, and genuine investment in others' success. Resilient and patient: Not every rescue is ready to partner right away, and that's fine — you follow up thoughtfully without being pushy. Tech-comfortable: Proficiency with HubSpot, Asana, Slack, Canva, Microsoft Docs, and similar tools. Ability to prioritize and quickly turn around high priority campaigns in a fast-paced environment. *** Experience in sales, business development, animal welfare or nonprofit fundraising, or account management is a strong plus, but not required.
