The Chief of Development will lead Equimundo’s fundraising team and steer business development at the executive level. The person will join Equimundo at an exciting moment of growth. With major support from Pivotal Ventures, Minderoo, and others, Equimundo has doubled its budget in the past 2 years and is poised to sustain its impactful, growing global work. This hire comes at an opportune time for a driven, connected, and networked individual who is passionate about caring manhood
