CRM Consultant Associate - Job Description

Groundwire is a nonprofit organization offering a wide range of technology services that help environmental organizations connect, inspire and mobilize their communities. 

We are deeply committed to creating a sustainable society. Because we are so passionate about getting people inspired and engaged in the building of a sustainable society – locally, nationally, globally – we work hard to make sure hundreds of environmental groups have the online tools needed to accomplish real social change.

We are experts in the tools we use to build websites, databases, and email & social media tools.  Our web developers are leaders in the software development community, and our database consultants are certified Salesforce.com experts. 

And what makes us so special (if we do say so ourselves) is that we offer the whole package: online communications strategy, beautiful websites that are really easy for non-technical staff to use, powerful databases for managing supporters, and email broadcasting & social media tools.

We are seeking a CRM Associate interested in joining our Seattle team.
