Job description

Pennies is an award-winning charity at the cutting edge of fintech, working with some of the biggest brands in retail, hospitality and payments. Our mission is to protect and grow micro-donations: providing merchants with ways to collect digital donations for charity at the point of sale, and providing customers simple, affordable and accessible ways to give a little and make a huge difference. 

We're searching for an experienced Business Development Manager to grow both new and existing partnerships with mid-level and larger merchants – generating leads, managing the implementation of our micro-donation solutions, and providing exceptional ongoing account management.
