About the Role

The Company is in search of a Chief Executive Officer to provide strategic leadership and oversee all operational aspects. The successful candidate will work closely with the Board of Directors, the leadership team, and a network of volunteers to advance the organization's mission, drive growth, and ensure long-term sustainability. This role requires a visionary leader with a proven track record in growing non-profits, a deep commitment to the mission, and the skills to scale impact globally. The CEO will be responsible for the day-to-day operations, including operational excellence, resource management, and fostering a culture of transparency and collaboration.

The ideal CEO for the company will be adept at embracing and managing change, particularly in the wake of the significant shifts in the educational space. A strong operational background and experience in change management are essential, as the organization seeks to adapt and thrive in a post-COVID-19 landscape. The role is not just about developing smart kids; it's about bringing together a community of volunteers, parents, and students who are dedicated to using their efforts and intelligence to effect positive change in the world. The company has a rich history of empowering students and supporting educational goals, and the new CEO will be expected to build on this legacy and set the stage for the next three decades of success.
