Want to work at FirstGiving?

There's a small group of us based in Davis Square, Somerville, Massachusetts. We’re a pretty unusual company. Here are our top reasons why.

  • We have the best users ever.
    We're constantly in awe of the people and organizations raising funds through FirstGiving. They do the most amazing and inspiring things. Without them we would be nothing. We never, ever lose sight of that.
  • We're driven by data, not egos.
    All of the best work we do comes out of solid research and fierce internal debate. We like to take risks and learn just as much from our failures as we do from our success.
  • Integrity rules.
    When we recruit, of course we look for talented people. But we only want talented people who echo our values and truly want to make a difference. Qualifications are important, but they're not the end all, be all.
  • Accountability keeps us structured.
    There's not much bureaucracy here and we're not interested in unnecessary hierarchy. All of the FirstGiving team know what each other does and that focus keeps everyone accountable and on target. We all know that our contributions make a real difference to the overall picture.
  • We like change.
    If something can be done better, we'll always call it out and act fast to change it. We strive to be agile and egoless, allowing us to shift at the drop of a hat.
  • We have fun.
    We're friends and we like going out for lunch, going to the pub, and participating in fun runs. People tend to stay here for a long time, because they like their colleagues as much as their job.
  • With great responsibility comes great reward.
    Our users need us to be 100% dedicated, so our workflows are transparent and we don't waste time in unnecessary meetings. We like getting things done and we pay well for it.
