About the Role
The Company is in search of a President and CEO to lead its mission of climate resilience and tree equity. The successful candidate will be a dynamic and proven executive with a career dedicated to supporting institutions in achieving impact, growth, and sustainability. This role is pivotal as the organization seeks to engage the private sector and navigate a changing public funding landscape. The President and CEO will work closely with a dedicated Board of Directors to shape and implement new strategies, with a focus on innovation and the ability to translate passion for the mission into financial resources and community mobilization. Key responsibilities for the President and CEO include being a strategic thought leader, an exceptional resource developer, and a savvy public advocate. The ideal leader will have a strong background in driving organizational change, be adept at fostering a culture of mentorship and inspiration, and have a proven track record in a similar transitional role. A metrics-driven approach, a commitment to service, and a familiarity with the broader conservation community are essential. While the role is based in Washington, D.C., remote work is an option, with a preference for candidates in regional proximity to the city. The President and CEO will be at the forefront of advancing the organization's mission and priorities, solidifying its position as a leader in the forest movement.
