VP of Growth

Location: Remote
Position Type: Commission-Based with Growth Opportunity

About Onyx Nonprofit Strategies
Onyx Nonprofit Strategies partners with non-profits, churches, and select government agencies to enhance their management effectiveness, strategic planning, and fundraising capabilities. Our tailored services include:

• Management Consulting: Organizational appraisals, executive coaching, and leadership assessments.
• Fundraising Strategy: Comprehensive assessments and actionable revenue strategies.
• Strategic Planning: Annual planning aligned with core competencies and long-term goals​.

Role Overview
We are seeking an entrepreneurial and results-driven Vice President of Growth to spearhead business development efforts. This leadership role will drive client acquisition, build strategic partnerships, and position Onyx Nonprofit Strategies for continued growth.

As a startup, this position is not for the faint of heart. While the opportunity to shape the company’s future is immense, the infrastructure and resources typical of larger corporations are still being built—we’re “building the plane as we fly it.” This is an exciting, ground-floor opportunity for someone who thrives in dynamic environments and is ready to be part of the foundational team.

The position is commission-based, offering a percentage of new business secured (to be determined). As Onyx grows, this role is envisioned to evolve into a full-time salary commission position, with the opportunity to build and lead a team.

Key Responsibilities

• Business Development: Proactively identify and secure new consulting engagements across non-profits, churches, and government agencies.
• Strategic Partnerships: Develop and nurture relationships with key stakeholders to expand Onyx's reach and reputation.
• Lead Generation: Collaborate with leadership to leverage existing leads and networks while creating strategies for new outreach.
• Client Engagement: Understand prospective clients' unique needs and align Onyx’s services to deliver tailored solutions.
• Sales Execution: Drive revenue by converting prospects into long-term, high-value clients.
• Startup Collaboration: Work closely with the CEO to innovate and adapt processes, contributing to Onyx’s infrastructure as we grow.

Qualifications

• Proven experience in business development, sales, or fundraising, preferably in the non-profit or consulting sector.
• Entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to work independently in a startup environment.
• Flexibility and adaptability to thrive in a growing company with evolving processes.
• Strong communication, negotiation, and relationship-building skills.
• Understanding of non-profit operations, fundraising strategies, and organizational development is a plus.

What You’ll Gain

• Ground-Floor Opportunity: Influence and shape the future of a growing startup with a clear vision and purpose.
• Flexibility: Fully remote position offering autonomy in how you drive results.
• Commission-Based Compensation: Competitive commission structure based on new business secured (details to be determined).
• Future Growth: This role is designed to evolve into a full-time salary commission leadership position with team-building opportunities as the company scales.

About Our Future
Onyx Nonprofit Strategies is a startup with a bold vision: to empower organizations to achieve their highest potential. If you thrive in fast-paced environments where innovation and creativity are valued, join us to help build something extraordinary. Together, we’ll create meaningful impact, even as we “build the plane as we fly it.”
