Funny name, serious business

We make eco-friendly products and donate 50% of our profits to provide clean water and help build toilets for the billions of people who lack proper access. So far, we’ve contributed over $18 million AUD (roughly $12.5 million USD) to fund sanitation projects around the globe. Basically, we’re really good at doing good. 

With hubs in Australia, the Philippines, China, the US, UK and Europe, our amazing team of 200+ work to make the biggest possible impact for people and the planet. Over the next couple of years, we’re hoping to increase our annual donation tenfold to get us closer to our dream of everyone in the world having access to clean water and sanitation services.

A bit about the role

You’ll be the operational co-pilot for our Canadian team as we build Who Gives A Crap into a household brand in Canada. Day to day, that means keeping campaigns moving, keeping commercial pipelines organised and making sure the day-to-day runs smoothly. It isn’t just about updating trackers. It’s about the groundwork that makes sure our brand lands locally and our regional commercial milestones get hit.

If you worked here this past month here are some things you might have been involved in

• Coordinating campaign delivery across social, influencer, PR and events, so cross-functional work lands on schedule
• Flagging project blockers early and keeping shared timelines and status documentation up to date
• Being the day-to-day point of contact for our local agencies
• Coordinating the Canadian social calendar with our global creative team and local agencies
• Reviewing global and local content to make sure it feels authentically Canadian and on brand
• Reviewing agency pitches for influencers and giving constructive feedback before they go to the Director for sign-off
• Keeping the Canadian marketing budget tracker accurate, with zero errors
• Working through inbound Canadian B2B enquiries, from bulk requests to reorders

Let’s talk about you

You’re a details person who loves a fast-moving team

We’re launching a new market, which means the work moves quickly and the to-do list changes often. You like having lots of moving parts in play and keeping them tidy. You know when to chase a deadline, when to flag a blocker early and when to ask for help.

You have a sharp instinct for what feels right

You notice when copy, an asset or an agency pitch sounds off brand or out of touch with Canadian nuances, and you can say why. You’re keen to suggest local ideas worth testing.

You like to follow the numbers

You’re comfortable in a dashboard. You enjoy spotting what’s working, what isn’t and what to test next, and you’d rather turn a messy report into a clear next step than wait for someone else to do it.

You give a crap

Do you want your work to make the world a better place? Do you want to work with other people who feel the same way? What a coincidence — us too!

Why should you work with us?

First off, as a certified B Corp™, we work to make a difference every day while maintaining the highest standards of social and environmental impact. With our most recent score of 125.5 we’re in very good company with other exceptional B Corps around the world.

We also believe that helping to make the world a better place should be rewarded accordingly – that’s why we offer competitive, market informed salaries, meaningful support towards healthcare for our team around the world, generous paid leave, tailored learning and development opportunities, and free toilet paper (yes, you read that right). Our engagement surveys (thanks Culture Amp!) tell us that our team is really proud (95%) to work for Who Gives A Crap and, well, we couldn’t be more proud of that.

Have you made it this far?

If you’re still reading, we think there’s a strong chance you might be our kind of person. Here’s the thing, though — research suggests that 60% of women and underrepresented folks might have already talked themselves out of applying. Even if you don’t check every box above, we want to encourage you to introduce yourself. We believe a diversity of perspectives and experiences makes a team stronger — and the stronger our team, the closer we are to delivering toilets and clean water for all.
