  • Develop and execute a comprehensive strategic plan in collaboration with the ATD Board and NADA staff.  Adapt strategies based on industry challenges and opportunities to drive organizational success.
  • Lead ATD’s NextGen efforts to help build a successful future for our industry, our association and our communities.
  • Serve as the primary spokesperson, articulating ATD's value proposition to stakeholders, including policymakers, regulators, and members. Promote awareness of ATD’s benefits to truck dealers and increase involvement and engagement across the industry.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with members, manufacturers, and other key stakeholders to foster collaboration and enhance ATD’s influence.
  • Oversee the successful implementation of the annual ATD Show and ensure financial stability and growth. Strengthen and expand ATD’s research, programs and services to benefit our members.
  • Create and monitor annual budget.

Skills & Qualifications:

  • Minimum 10 years in senior leadership roles, with significant experience in advocacy, membership organizations, or related fields.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, Public Administration, Management, or a related field, or equivalent experience required. Advanced degree preferred.
  • Experience in the truck industry or a proven ability to quickly master new industries and issues. Strong understanding of the dealer model and commercial automotive/truck industry.

  • Strong strategic thinking, financial acumen, and the ability to lead and motivate a team. Experience working with boards and managing organizational culture.
  • Experience serving as a passionate and credible advocate for a complex and multi-faceted organization on public policy issues at the federal and state level.
  • Must have the ability to travel up to 40%.

This position will remain open until filled. We are unable to sponsor or take over sponsorship of an employment Visa.
