About GiveDirectly

GiveDirectly (GD) aims to reshape international giving – and millions of lives
– by allowing donors to provide capital grants directly to the world’s
poorest. The Brookings Institution estimates that $70B of cash transfers would
be required to eliminate the poverty gap; the aid sector currently spends
$135B each year, much of which is allocated to evidence-free interventions.
GiveDirectly wants to change that, establishing a benchmark, and in the
process accelerate the end of extreme poverty. GiveDirectly has raised over
$400M in revenue (>$150M in 2020 alone), while being recognized as one of the
most innovative non-profit companies by [ Fast Company
](https//www.fastcompany.com/most-innovative-companies/2018/sectors/not-for-
profit) . The growing movement toward cash transfers and GD’s role in that
movement have also been featured in [ This American Life

Cash transfers are at a potential inflection point COVID-19 has amplified the
challenges of bulkier in-kind aid models, and governments are deploying cash
as their most common tool of assistance to vulnerable populations.
GiveDirectly has an opportunity to leverage its strong track record ( i.e.
operations across 9 countries, >$250M transferred to over a million
individuals, 13 randomized control trials), to both deliver immense impact and
position itself as the premiere cash implementation vehicle globally.

About the role

We are seeking an analytical and entrepreneurial leader to drive GiveDirectly
through our next phase of growth building strategic partnerships to scale
