EMPLOYEE TESTIMONIALS - WHY I AM HERE...
Liz Innes Sales Manager and Metasoftie since February 2007 "I joined Metasoft after more than 20 years working in the private sector, and I love it here. It is remarkably rewarding working with a team of people who genuinely love what they do. I love the variety of people and organizations I get to talk to every day, I love showing them how we can help solve their problems, and I love working with my team of truly committed professionals. I can’t think of when I have enjoyed a job, or a company more.

Sheldon Karlson Inside Sales Representative and Metasoftie since August 2007 "Last year, I endeavored to sell Metasoft on my employer’s recruitment services. The reverse happened... I became sold on Metasoft and its funding division. I made a decision to quit and channel my energy and passion into Metasoft. When I first heard “Metasoft helps make the world a better a place,” I thought, “Yeah right... impressive sales pitch.” However, after further due diligence, I quickly realized that it was a statement of TRUTH. Assisting non-profits attain the funds required to operate and expand is awesome. What would the world be without Salvation Army, The Red Cross, Habitat for Humanity, Greenpeace and many more? Bottom-line... I feel privileged to be a Metasoftie and after having been here for a year, I have realized great success and only hope that my clients are experiencing even greater success."
Marcie Roy Senior Account Manager and Metasoftie since May 2003 "The reasons I have worked at Metasoft for close to five years are the clients and my coworkers. I always have clients remark on how grateful they are that I called and how I have helped them. That makes what we do so important and rewarding. It feels really good when you have helped an organization succeed in their fundraising efforts. Another reason I work at Metasoft is the incredible people who are Metasoft: the staff and management. They are absolutely without a doubt the best group of people I have ever had the pleasure to work with. I also like the flexibility of working from my own home office as I have a child with special needs that sometimes needs my assistance."
Fiona Barry Canadian Account Manager and Metasoftie since May 1999 "I started with Metasoft after a career in Food and Beverage (private clubs) and decided to go into a totally different scene and see how I could help others rather than the rich golfers. Metasoft attracted me because of its money back guarantee which meant that the non-profit could get the outlay back... that was important to me. I have enjoyed every moment and can't believe I am still here as I did not think I would last! It's like running your own show, doing your own thing and no one telling you how to do it, you have total control of your own destiny."
Jaime Bartlett US Sales Manager and Metasoftie since October 2007 "My name is Jaime and I’ve been with Metasoft Systems since October. Outstanding people, supportive management and working for a company that helps people are the reasons I was attracted to Metasoft and the reasons I continue to stay. My clients believe that I can make their funding needs a reality and Metasoft has created an industry-leading, best-in-class resource tool that educates the user to be at their most effective. I am helping people who help people and I’m being rewarded with much more than a wage."
Gail Stewart Fundraising Support Manager and Metasoftie since October 2003 "I think the most rewarding career moves are those that allow you to apply and utilize your past experiences, accomplishments and interests while still offering opportunities for future growth and development - both personally and professionally. Not only do I help our clients across North America meet and surpass their fundraising challenges by contributing to the provision of outstanding resources and service, but I am working for a dynamic, cutting-edge and socially conscious company that understands its clients' needs, and understands, appreciates and acknowledges each employee's contribution."
Rusty Jones Recruiting Team Lead and Metasoftie since November 2007 "I’ve been working with Metasoft for a few months now and have to admit it is one of the more rewarding positions I’ve filled. The opportunity to help people find careers in a company that has a mission supporting organizations that provide so much for the benefit of our world is incredible. I have the ability to realize not just professional growth, but also personal satisfaction by knowing that every candidate I recruit for this company will be doing their best to help make our world a better place to live."
Cindy Fahie Inside Sales Representative and Metasoftie since September 2007 "A life without passion and purpose is merely an existence. At Metasoft, I have found purpose in working with charities that constantly struggle to meet the needs of their clients while trying to find funding for their projects and campaigns. I listen to them talk about their goals and missions with passion and purpose in their voices. My privilege is to share with passion, the tools we have at Metasoft, which will help them find the foundation funding that they so desperately need. I can’t think of any vocation I would rather have than this work I do. I love being part of a big picture that results in wonderful goals being met."
Dianne Cuzner Senior Account Manager and Metasoftie since 1999 "In 1999, I was hired at Metasoft Systems Inc. There are many reasons for my long history here: the products and services are superior, and our clients are loyal, passionate, caring, and intelligent people. Furthermore, the income opportunities are excellent and I have the freedom to work from home. I believe in the company’s vision and its business practices, and of course, the people (staff and management) make me want to continue to work here for many more years. My history is both in sales and development in the non-profit sector. This job marries the two fields extremely well. If you want to make a difference in this world and make a good living, I couldn’t recommend a better place. It starts right here."
Gary Johnson Recruiter and Metasoftie since April 2007 "Every morning I jump out of bed, beating my alarm clock. I am excited about every day at Metasoft. The people I work with are like an adopted family that really care about each other. Working for a company that helps non-profit organizations fundraise is a “feel great every day” job and I absolutely love my job."
John Percy US Account Manager and Metasoftie since 2002 "Sales is both an invigorating and challenging profession. I believe Metasoft is a valuable asset to the non-profit community and it is extremely gratifying to know that I play a positive role in advancing the fund development of those who have bought from me. In sports I was taught to find the opponent's weakness and exploit them in order to take advantage of them. In the world of selling we look for the prospect's weakness so we can strengthen him or her through the usage of our goods and services. In my twelve years of sales experience I can think of no better vehicle to accomplish that goal than with the products offered at Metasoft."
Connie Hubbs Director of Fundraising Support and Metasoftie since February 1997 "I have worked at Metasoft now for ten and a half years and there are many reasons why I continue to find my job extremely rewarding. The sector that we work in contains social profit and cause related organizations in North America and many around the world as well. I am privileged to assist committed individuals and organizations meet their funding goals so that they can achieve success in their projects, such as reducing our carbon footprint on the planet, supporting drug addicted mothers, building solar ovens in Afghanistan, building affordable housing in our communities, finding a cure for cancer, and much more! Metasoft provides the best product, FoundationSearch, to identify and manage prospective donors for all of the above. Our resources are constantly evolving so there are always exciting new developments to share with our clients to help them be even more successful. The job is so much fun I would probably do it for free, but in fact I am materially rewarded far beyond any previous job. I cannot imagine working anywhere else."
Simson See Lead System Administrator and Metasoftie since October 2003 "I love that Metasoft is a technology company that helps nonprofit organizations achieve their fundraising goals. Being an Information Technology professional, it is a challenging but fruitful position to provide a reliable technology platform for all our staff and clients. What is better than being able to use your knowledge and talent to serve those that are less fortunate?"
Michael Palethorpe Account Manager and Metasoftie since March 2007 "I love working at Metasoft Systems. The team is great to work with and the organization is unlike any other I have worked in before. There is a certain partnership and sentiment of, ‘let’s make sure everyone wins,’ at Metasoft, which I have rarely experienced in other organizations. Metasoft provides a great atmosphere, great benefits, great compensation and best of all it is a very fluid organization that allows you to be creative and take on as much as you want with rewards that follow. I highly recommend working at Metasoft to anyone who is motivated and passionate about doing good in the world and working with charities and non-profits."
Sue Ashworth Customer Support Supervisor and Metasoftie since January 2001 "I am constantly surprised and challenged by the variety of tasks I get to perform during the regular workday. I am responsible for ensuring that clients (and staff) remain enthused and happy about our products. There is truly never a dull moment, whether I am assisting someone to find funders who will help them to build a planetarium, or helping them set their computer up to work with our database, each query is unique and each client is a character with a story to tell."
Dave Murray Vice President, Market Development and Metasoftie since April 2001 "At Metasoft it's all about the people. We are a Canadian company with a great internal culture that has, through innovation and an intense sales focus, developed a leading global position in its marketplace."
Trevor Skillen President and Chief Metasoftie since 1988 "Where else would you get the privilege of working with such a great and inspired team while helping the world become a better place?"
