About the role

The Philanthropy Assistant at Jewish Silicon Valley provides clerical and operational support to the Philanthropy Team, handling gift entry, donor correspondence, and event logistics in a fast-paced nonprofit environment. The role requires 3+ years as an administrative assistant, strong Microsoft Office and Google Workspace skills, and experience with cloud-based donor management systems.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
