Location: Washington, DC Metro area
Position Summary:
The Chief Executive Officer embraces the vision of the Organization as established by the Board; oversees the day-to-day operations; coalesces support around the Organization’s direction and priorities among Board, staff, and other key stakeholders; secures funding for priority initiatives; provides effective supervision, delegation, and accountability of staff; serves as an active and visible liaison to the community; and collaborates with the public garden community nationally and globally regarding best practices in sustainability and vision.
Candidate Profile:
The ideal candidate will approach the work in an inspirational, visionary, passionate manner that is authentic, trustworthy, innovative, and resilient. They will be driven by relationships and building meaningful connections across multiple groups, including the executive team, staff, volunteers, donors, partners, businesses, civic groups, public officials, visitors, members, and other stakeholders. A transparent and direct communication style with a culturally sensitive, equity mindset is essential.
We seek a leader who is an exceptional communicator, able to energetically and enthusiastically articulate the vision and aspirations of the Organization. Experience at a high level in fundraising and donor engagement is highly preferred, with a proven track record in obtaining major individual gifts, corporate sponsorships, foundation support, and government grants. Successful experience in leading a capital campaign is a plus.
A proven ability to manage and lead an organization is required, including experience in hiring, coaching, and delegating to create a high-quality team of professional and accountable staff members. The candidate must demonstrate the ability to transform ideas into specific, goal-driven project outcomes. Strategic and business-principled decision-making experience, including expertise in crisis management, is essential. Experience in project management, from basic infrastructure improvements to large-scale capital construction projects, is ideal. Solid skills in operations, finance, and business management are expected.
Leading with respect and being an active listener, the ideal candidate will be a dynamic, high-energy partner. A confident leader who is flexible and humble, viewing all involved in the organization through an asset/strengths-based lens, is important. The candidate will be a strong strategic thinker with a collaborative, engaging approach to decision-making that reflects the core values of the communities the Garden serves. A desire to improve diversity and inclusion in hiring, garden access, and programs is also essential. The ideal candidate should be responsive and accessible, capable of connecting with all aspects of the organization through strong interpersonal skills.
Specific experience with public gardens is preferred but not required; however, an affinity and passion for the mission of public gardens must be demonstrated. Senior-level leadership in a similar venue that aspires to deliver an extraordinary visitor experience is highly desirable. Experience in nonprofit management and governance is preferred. A bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university is required; a master’s degree is preferred. Affiliation with local, state, or national professional or trade associations related to the Garden’s mission would be a plus.
