What it's like at GRID

At GRID, we care about each other and know that each employee has a whole self that includes life outside of work.

Our culture supports learning, growth and well-being of all of our team members. Every member of GRID Alternatives must be dedicated to participating in the organization's equity, inclusion, and diversity (EID) work.


GRID Alternatives provides equal employment opportunities to all employees and applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability or genetics.

Because we value EID at GRID Alternatives, we encourage folks from all backgrounds to apply, even if you do not meet all of the preferred qualifications.


Why this is a big deal...

The GRID Alternatives Mid-Atlantic affiliate Executive Director (ED) works with GRID's national leadership, the GRID Mid-Atlantic Board of Directors, and staff to sustain and build on the successful track record of the organization.

Working closely with and reporting to the affiliate Board and the national GRID Alternatives organization, the ED is responsible for GRID Mid-Atlantic's consistent achievement of its mission and financial objectives.

The ED also contributes to the overall stewardship of the collective GRID organization.

At this time, GRID Mid-Atlantic has gone through a period of balancing and restructuring. We have a team of about 10 talented staff.

We are looking for a leader who can stabilize the organization, support staff growth and development, and work with the team to rebuild sustainably.


The ED must be an inclusive, strategic, and organized leader with strong operations, financial, staff management, and partnership development experience.

Above all else, the ED must be committed to GRID's vision, mission, and values, our team, and a collaborative culture.

The ED reports to GRID HQ's VP of Regions with additional oversight from the affiliate Board of Directors.

This is an AMAZING opportunity for someone who wants to run a non-profit and shape the vision and strategic direction in the region with the benefit of having the resources and infrastructure of a robust national organization.

A visionary, a business leader, a thought leader, and a coach.

Your drive, passion really, is fueled by your innate ability to elevate and advance the world around you-you can't help yourself.

You were never content to sit on the sidelines and wait for someone else to start, or to get it done, you always, always, just jumped right in, all in, because doing good and making better is your love language and those around you, witnessing you, are inspired to do the same.

Your mantra, "All people, given the right opportunities, and the right resources, at the right time, or the "right now" time, are capable of doing great things." Because you know, they are the ones that they have been waiting for, and your job is to just show them the way, hold the space, and usher in greatness.
