Really fun work enviornment
Contact Centre Representative (Former Employee) - Melbourne VIC - 27 February 2020
Working at public outreach was an amazing experience! You get to chat to people all day while making a difference to charity. In the morning and after each break you get to play energisers which is really fun and everyone that works there is lovely so you make so many friends!
You have got targets to meet weekly but they are definitely achievable. Managers are team leaders are supportive and offer advice to get you there.
On Fridays, there are beers in the office after work and they have pizza lunches or a BBQ often too!
I can not recommend this place to work for enough!!

Amazing company to work with
Public outreach Is an awesome company to work for. You are supported 100% of the way and learn many skills that can also help you in your day to day life, whether that be keeping positive or getting outside of your comfort zone. I have been here for 5 years and I don’t plan on going anywhere. The Culture is amazing! You meet so many great people from all over the world. The fundraisers, team leaders and managers you get to work with make you feel at home, a place where you want to stay long term. The same opportunity is here for anyone who walks through the doors.
Pros
Culture, free beer and pizza

Great job for learning communication skills
Fundraising Manager (Former Employee) - Melbourne VIC - 5 June 2019
Simply put, one of the best fundraising agencies out there.
No commission, good work/life balance, amazing culture and coworkers, awesome socials, EAP, and progression opportunities.
I've had the opportunity to travel around Australia and build a great career working with charities!
Pros
Company culture, employee support, supportive managers
Cons
Targets aren't everybody's cup of tea. Having said that though, they're very achievable and there are bonuses for overachievement.

More than a job: this place is my home
Manager (Current Employee) - Australia - 2 May 2019
Half a decade ago I was lost.
I had no direction in my life, trying odd jobs here and there and constantly failing. I didn't work hard at anything because I didn't think anything was worth it.
I secured an interview at Public Outreach and thought to myself, "here we go. Just another marketing agency that will use me, abuse me, and dump me."
I couldn't have been more wrong.
From day one I've been treated like a real human being. I have been given opportunities and a career I never thought was possible for myself, all while helping to make the world a better place through fundraising for amazing charities. This company is a family, and every single day when I wake up I'm excited to go to work and be with people who genuinely share my passion for a better world.
Yes the work can be hard at times. But changing the world is never easy.
Yes you can get rejected a lot as a fundraiser. But now I can face anything life throws at me with drive and positivity.
Yes there are targets to meet. But they are more than achievable and they've taught my to manage my time and be resilient.
I have had the absolute privilege of travelling and living all over this great country because of Public Outreach. I met the best friends I could ever ask for through working here. I even met my life partner here!
If you want to become a better communicator, open amazing doors in the charity sector (and life in general), or learn how to be the best version of yourself than you can be - I strongly recommend giving this company a shot.
Your future self will thank you immensely for -
Pros
Culture, pay, career opportunities
Cons
Working towards targets and meeting new people every day is not for everybody

Great place to work
Team Leader (Former Employee) - Sydney NSW - 11 April 2019
I worked in the Sydney based office for 5 months and it was probably one of the best experiences of my working life.
The office is full of friendly, passionate and positive people which has created such a great working environment. The management was great at supporting, teaching and encouraging us all to reach our best potential as fundraisers for some incredible charities.
The use of 'energizers' after each break was one of my favorite parts of the job. They are used to get everyone to relieve stress and get people energized and focused ready for the next session of fundraising.
Really has been such an incredible experience! I actually would look forward to going into work.
