Why Smarter Good?

5 Reasons Why Rockstars Join Our Team


Global Social Impact

Rockstars create impact. Extend your impact globally — to the arid lands of Africa or under-resourced hospitals of India, to youth in Gaza or women and girls in North America — by working side-by-side with some of the world’s most innovative nonprofit leaders. Become instrumental in creating epic partnerships between funders and client nonprofits that deliver life-saving technologies for babies, provide access to clean water for rural villages, and empower disadvantaged youth, to name only a few of the ways and places where we drive impact.


Career Growth

Rockstars are ambitious and always looking to grow in their careers. Smarter Good strives to grow talent from within.  Our work has our team working alongside CEOs, Executive Directors and social sector leaders. You will be able to take on stretch assignments and have access to mentors who will help you become strategic and efficient in driving funding and organizational growth for nonprofits. As our company grows, your career opportunities grow, too.


A Diverse Team

Rockstars come in all shapes and sizes. At Smarter Good, you will work alongside exceptional individuals from diverse backgrounds who share a passion for the social sector. We value people who take initiative, think and work fast, have an eye for detail, and welcome collaboration. If you are a creative and flexible problem solver, open-minded and outspoken communicator, and smart and confident strategist, then you’ll fit right in.


Freedom, Flexibility and Continuous Learning

Rockstars are deliverable-driven and get the job done without the need to “clock in/out.” Smarter Good offers our team the flexibility to work onsite in Makati and work from home or anywhere with a strong internet connection on certain days. We are a group of continuous learners and you will have opportunities to grow a valuable set of Smarter Good Core Skills through workshops, local and international travel to meet with clients or attend conferences, and on-the-job opportunities to try on new skills and take on leadership roles for projects. 


Network of Changemakers

Social impact creation is a marathon, not a sprint. We work hard at Smarter Good because impact is at stake. We also believe in encouraging our team to stay well and stay in touch so they are strong for the long haul of social change. Our Wellness Fund and benefits make sure our rockstars have time for health, family, relaxation and hobbies. Our Alumni Network creates a bigger group of changemakers who support each other  and Smarter Good on the life-long journey of making impact.

The Buzz

Straight From Our Rockstars


More than the work that we do here, Smarter Good has changed me in ways I didn’t think possible. Through our clients, I have become more hopeful for the world and regained my trust in humanity (especially in such a peculiar time in history—which is both comical and tragic). Through our team, I’ve learned that brilliance and magic can grow from kindness and humility.

Aishah, Associate Development Manager

We know nonprofit organizations do great, hard work. So we set high standards for ourselves in order to serve them well and make their lives a little easier.

Jam, People Partnership Director

We work hard and play hard. Even with the tightest of deadlines we know how to laugh at ourselves. 🙂

Emille, Editor

The people I have worked with have supported me and are a huge reason why I stay motivated. In fact, I have become more appreciative of the close collaboration that we promote in Smarter Good and how it enriches the work we do.

Zea, Writer-Researcher

At Smarter Good, I’ve met 49 heroes who inspire me to give my best everyday – more than turning in concise but substantial research and well-written PFRs, I became more aware of my actions and how it affects the bigger picture, like how food security initiatives in Mexico put food on the table for a portion of America, or how a $40 loan can completely change the life of a woman in Africa.

Francine, Fellowship Program participant

We match PROFESSIONAL INTENSITY with PERSONAL SUPPORT and HUMOR…and food. Lots of it.
