About the Role

The Company is in search of a President and Chief Executive Officer to lead its mission-driven organization. The successful candidate will be responsible for the strategic, operational, and cultural leadership of the institution, ensuring the sustainability of its child-centered learning environment. This role is pivotal in maintaining the organization's strong national and international reputation and in fostering a culture that promotes innovation, collaboration, and fiscal responsibility. The President and CEO will also serve as a public voice for children and families, championing accessible learning and building meaningful community relationships. Fundraising and engagement with the Board of Trustees, donors, and the business community are also key aspects of the position.

The ideal candidate for the President and CEO position at the company will have a proven track record in dynamic leadership, vision, and stewardship. They should be adept at delivering high-quality, hands-on learning experiences that inspire curiosity, creativity, and joy. A strong background in early childhood development and a deep commitment to the values of equity, curiosity, and inclusive learning are essential. The role requires a leader who can cultivate strong governance practices, maximize the contributions of all stakeholders, and ensure that the organization continues to be a vital and influential resource for children and families. Experience in fundraising, particularly through donations, endowments, sponsorships, and capital campaigns, is also a critical skill for the position.
