About the Role
The Ministry Growth Partner exists to help churches maximize the value they receive from their partnership with Pushpay.
This role owns the commercial growth strategy across an assigned portfolio of existing customers, partnering closely with Customer Success, Strategic Sales, Marketing, Product, and Executive Leadership to identify opportunities that help ministries accomplish more through technology.
Unlike a traditional Account Manager, the Ministry Growth Partner is not responsible for renewals or support. Instead, they serve as a long-term strategic advisor—guiding churches through platform adoption, identifying future ministry initiatives, and introducing additional Pushpay solutions when they create meaningful value.
Success in this role is measured by Net Revenue Retention (NRR) and expansion revenue. This is an individual-contributer, quota carrying position designed for a commercial builder who excels at consultative closing with an established customer base.
Why This Role Exists
Pushpay has invested significantly in expanding our platform through Nurture, Giving, ChurchStaq and ChMS. Many of our customers have only begun their journey with Pushpay Giving.
The Ministry Growth Partner exists to help churches discover additional ways our platform can support their mission while building deeper, long-term partnerships that strengthen both customer outcomes and Pushpay's growth.
This role is foundational to our strategy of becoming the most trusted technology partner serving the Church.
