Columbus, United States ASPCA Full time

Summary:

Are you a skilled, strong team leader who thrives in a fast-paced, complex work environment? Do you love to collaborate with other leaders and engage in creative troubleshooting? Are you as passionate about cultivating a healthy team culture as you are about helping at-risk animals? If so, Vice President at the ASPCA’s Cruelty Recover Center may be the perfect role for you

At the Cruelty Recovery Center (CRC) in Columbus, Ohio, a dedicated team of sheltering, veterinary and animal behavior experts work together to serve animals rescued in ASPCA national cruelty cases and disaster responses. This team works closely with other ASPCA teams to ensure well-coordinated operations and provide high-quality integrated care for animal victims of neglect, abuse and natural disasters. The CRC’s staff also care for animals housed in the ASPCA’s temporary field shelters. The CRC is part of the Rehabilitation Services Group, which also includes the Behavioral Rehabilitation Center (BRC) in Weaverville, NC, and the Recovery and Rehabilitation Center (R&R) in Pawling, NY. All three facilities provide opportunities for animals to heal after rescue. As they engage in hands-on care, teams prioritize the elevation of our work through ongoing learning, advancing the animal welfare field through research, developing effective, efficient interventions, and establishing new best practices, which the ASPCA shares through the Learning Lab—the fourth Rehabilitation Services team—on ASPCA Pro, and at professional conferences.

The VP of the CRC manages four direct reports and leads a team of almost 50 full-time staff, as well as robust roster of contingent workers, volunteers and foster families. This role requires a talent for fostering strong teamwork to achieve mutual goals. To that end, the VP works to ensure excellent communication and cooperation among operations, behavior and medical staff at the CRC, as well as with several other partnering ASPCA teams. The VP also maintains direct connections with other ASPCA leaders to ensure organization-wide operational and philosophical alignment, to participate in collaborative projects, and to produce consistent messaging for external partners. The ideal candidate for this position has mastered balance in multiple respects: the VP should enjoy working with animals people; provide both energizing motivation and calm stability for staff; show dedication and a solid work ethic, coupled with the ability to model work/life balance for a team; and pay meticulous attention to detail while always leading the way forward with the big picture in mind.
