Job Description

Indraloka is seeking a Development and Operations Assistant to join a mission-driven team working to create a more compassionate world for human and non-human animals. We’re looking for someone early in their career (or pivoting into nonprofit work) who is excited to learn, takes pride in doing things well, and wants to grow into a meaningful role in fundraising and operations.

You don’t need to know everything—we can teach you. What matters most is your attention to detail, your sense of ownership, and your genuine enthusiasm for our mission and your part in it.

The Development and Operations Assistant plays a key role in bringing our mission to life each day. This position supports fundraising, communications, marketing, and operational systems that make our work possible.

This is a hands-on, fast-moving role where you’ll learn how a nonprofit functions behind the scenes as well as how fundraising and donor relationships are built and maintained.

You’ll work closely with the Director of Development and the Office Manager and will be trusted with real responsibility. Success in this role comes from being organized, proactive, and genuinely invested in doing meaningful work well. (This is primarily an administrative and fundraising support role, not a hands-on animal care position.)

This role is a great fit for someone who:

Takes pride in doing things accurately and thoughtfully—even small details matter to you
Is curious and eager to learn, especially about fundraising and nonprofit work
Follows through and takes ownership of their responsibilities
Feels energized by being part of a mission-driven organization
Enjoys staying organized and creating systems that help things run smoothly
Is comfortable asking questions and learning as they go
Is comfortable taking initiative and trying new ideas, while also following through on details and established processes
Enjoys meeting new people and sharing our work with them

This role may not be the right fit for someone who:

Is looking for a routine, low-engagement administrative position
Prefers minimal structure or follow-through
Is not interested in the mission or nonprofit work
Wants to work directly with animals

Key Responsibilities Include:

Serve as a first point of contact for donors, supporters, and the public
Support fundraising efforts through donation processing, reporting, and donor communications
Assist with events, outreach, and community engagement activities
Help maintain organizational systems (files, databases, inventory, communications)
Support website updates, email communications, and social media scheduling
Provide general administrative and operational support across departments

You’ll be trained on all systems and processes. Over time, there will be opportunities to take on more responsibility based on your interests and strengths. The right person can grow into this role and develop skills in fundraising, communications, and nonprofit operations that support the next stage of their career.

What We’re Looking For:

Indraloka is an animal advocacy organization and as such, each of our employees is expected to represent the organization and reflect our mission during work functions and while on site.

Passion for the mission required.
Kindness and compassion for all life is required.
A willingness to learn about and support a plant-based, cruelty-free lifestyle
Valid driver’s license and personal vehicle/transportation are required.
Criminal history, child abuse, and FBI clearances required.
Willing to work flexible hours including weekends, and some holidays.
Able to work in an environment with exposure to common allergens including nuts, soy, seeds, as well as bees, wasps, and other insects.
High School Diploma. Bachelors Degree a plus.
Strong attention to detail and follow-through
A positive, can-do attitude and willingness to learn
Genuine interest in fundraising, nonprofit work, or animal welfare
Clear and thoughtful communication skills, including comfort speaking on the phone and in person
Comfort using (or learning) basic digital tools like Google Workspace and social media platforms
Ability to stay organized and manage multiple tasks with support

Bonus (not required):

Previous administrative, customer service, or nonprofit experience
Familiarity with social media, basic web updates, or data entry
Photography skills

Compensation and Details

This position begins immediately and will function on site at the sanctuary. The Development and Operations Assistant is a full-time, hourly position starting at $14/hour plus bonus structure tailored to the candidate’s strengths. This role is ideal for someone looking to gain hands-on experience in fundraising and nonprofit operations in a supportive, mission-driven environment. This position is eligible for benefits.

This job description is subject to change at any time.

Pay: From $14.00 per hour

Benefits:

401(k)
Dental insurance
Employee discount
Health savings account
Life insurance
Paid time off
Vision insurance

Work Location: In person
