Make Philanthropy Work is not a typical consulting firm, and this is not a typical role. This is an opportunity to join one of Colorado’s fastest-growing and most innovative nonprofit consulting firms, working alongside a team committed to strengthening nonprofits for immediate and lasting results.

MPW partners with institutions and nonprofits of all types and sizes to provide consulting services that bolster missions and propel change. Our clients represent and serve communities from diverse backgrounds, and we value our role in supporting inclusive missions. We encourage individuals of all backgrounds to apply.

Our purpose drives everything we do: Creating the best fundraising solutions to solve the world’s greatest challenges.

This fuels our mission of working alongside organizations to make the world a better place.

Our shared and demonstrated values of curiosity, excellence, purpose, and inclusivity are core to our mission and guide how we work with one another and alongside our clients.

If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, enjoy supporting meaningful work behind the scenes, and take pride in keeping projects organized and moving forward, we have the job for you.
