This includes re-establishing and building relationships with donors and corporate partners, as well as advocating for the community at local, state, and national levels. The ideal candidate will have a deep understanding of the nonprofit sector, experience in fundraising, and a commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. They should also be adept at managing a diverse team, maintaining a transparent and equitable organizational culture, and have a background in programs related to the LGBTQIA+ community, such as those addressing homelessness or HIV.

Candidates for the CEO position at the company should possess a strategic mindset, the ability to drive vision and purpose, and the courage to lead with integrity. The role requires a leader who can instill trust, build strong relationships with stakeholders, and is adept at creating buy-in with staff and volunteers. Experience in board governance, knowledge of the local political climate, and a background in trauma-informed work are also essential. The CEO will be expected to have a hybrid work environment, with a flexible schedule that may include some nights and weekends. The company is an equal-opportunity employer and is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
