About the Role
As a Face-to-Face Charity Fundraiser, you’ll hit the ground running in high-energy environments across Brisbane, Gold Coast and surrounding areas.

Outstanding communication and interpersonal skills, with fluency in English.
Proven ability to engage strangers, build trust and convert conversations into commitments.

A passion for ethical sales and a commitment to learning advanced sales and engagement techniques.
Enthusiasm for supporting a life-changing cause while thriving in a fast-paced, people-focused environment.
