Downers Grove, Illinois, United States West Suburban Community Pantry Full time
Chief Executive Officer

Reports to

Board of Directors

Location

Woodridge, IL

In 1970, Roger and Barbara Schmith transformed a small pantry in
the closet of a local church into a community supported
organization. As it gained support, grew in size and earned
501(c)(3) status as the Woodridge Community Pantry in 1992, so too
did the recognition of the need across the surrounding counties. In
2010, the organization became the West Suburban Community Food
Pantry (WSCP), serving all of DuPage County. Today, the
organization also serves Will County.

West Suburban Community Pantry is a leader in the local movement to

end hunger:

  • increases access to nutritious food through services designed to
meet a range of neighbors' needs

  • provides resources that help families increase their financial
stability through collaboration with community partners

  • innovates to reduce food waste through new sourcing and
distribution solutions

The need for food assistance continues to grow. The Pantry served
over 110,000 individuals and 2.8 million pounds of food in 2023,
a 70% increase over the prior year.

As the Pantry continues to evolve to meet community needs, the
Board and WSCP leadership have positioned the organization for
significant growth and transformation. This evolution will occur at
both the strategic and operational levels and brings with it
significant opportunities to advance the Pantry's mission in this
next chapter. This is a unique opportunity to lead an innovative,
collaborative organization impacting thousands of people each
year.

The Pantry has a budget of about $2.0 million, a talented staff of
13, a dynamic Board with 14 directors and a robust core of
volunteers.

The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) serves as the leader of WSCP and
reports directly to the Board of Directors. In partnership with the
Board and staff team, this leader is ultimately responsible for the
success of the mission of WSCP and the fiscal health of the
organization. The CEO will be the primary face of the organization
to major constituents including donors, partners, media, government
officials, volunteers and the communities the Pantry serves. In
addition, the CEO will work closely with the Board and support
members in their roles.

The ideal candidate will bring the following attributes and

expertise:

STRATEGIC LEADER

  • Be a proven leader with a passion for addressing complex social
issues

  • Bring significant experience in leading strategic and high-level
decision-making, particularly in times of organizational
growth

  • Have a track record of entrepreneurial problem-solving skills,
creating and implementing organizational and operational best
practices, and managing people through partnership and
collaboration

  • Be able to implement best practices to achieve financial
objectives

  • Be adept at using keen interpersonal skills to coalesce multiple
internal and external stakeholders around common goals

  • Embody the highest ethical standards and demonstrate a balance of
business savvy with a commitment to responsible, people-focused
program delivery

STRONG RELATIONSHIP BUILDER

The ideal candidate will:

  • Skillfully serve as the primary spokesperson and external
representative of the organization and possess strong communication
and networking skills to help grow the organization's partnerships
and resources

  • Have demonstrated ability to develop and maintain impactful
relationships with business, civic leaders at the local, state and
national levels, and nonprofit leaders as well as donors and
volunteers

  • Bring significant fundraising experience, including demonstrated
skills in major gifts, corporate and foundation grants, capital
campaigns and enhancing a culture of giving

  • Develop and implement community awareness campaigns to educate
the public about food insecurity and promote volunteerism.

  • Have experience working closely with a board

COMMITMENT TO THE MISSION AND THE PANTRY

The ideal candidate will:

  • Champion diversity, equity and inclusion in the way the Pantry
operates internally and in service to the community

  • Bring interest and ability to build upon a strong, positive
organizational culture and to both lead and manage within complex
organizations

  • Be a creative thinker with high emotional intelligence, a
flexible personality and strong resiliency in sometimes rapidly
changing environments

  • Be collaborative, communicative and compassionate, with a
problem-solving nature

  • Embrace a servant leader mindset and a continuous learning
approach to developing a cohesive team as well as to mobilizing,
encouraging and building capacity of the staff

A bachelor's degree from a four-year college or university is
required; a graduate degree is desired. Current or prior experience
in the field or experiences that would result in a key
understanding of the cause is advantageous. Successful candidates
may come from the non-profit or for-profit sectors.

The salary range for this position is between $140,000 and 160,000
