Join to apply for the Executive Director role at Brooklyn Community Services

Brooklyn Community Services (BCS) has been guided by the principle of neighbors helping neighbors since its founding in 1866. Rooted in the struggle for social justice, BCS partners with people to overcome obstacles on their pathway toward self-determination and works to dismantle barriers that perpetuate inequitable systems.

The next Executive Director (ED) of Brooklyn Community Services will step into leadership at a defining moment in the organization’s history. With nearly 160 years of service to Brooklyn communities and a staff of more than 400, BCS plays a critical role in addressing poverty, advancing equity, and providing a wide range of social services.

BCS employs more than 400 full- and part-time staff and reaches over 14,000 people each year. The organization strengthens communities by supporting educational success for children, developing leadership among youth, promoting employment and housing stability for adults, advancing opportunities for individuals living with disabilities, and empowering seniors and families.

BCS offers comprehensive, holistic services that respond to community needs and foster resilience. These include :

  • Early childhood education
  • Youth development and afterschool programs
  • Family services
  • Workforce development
  • Community living and life skills programs for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities and / or mental health concerns
  • Health and wellness programs
  • Supportive housing and shelter
  • Adult basic education and ESOL
  • Disaster recovery case management and relief services

The ED will be charged with guiding BCS into its next era of stability and growth. They will work closely with the Board of Directors, staff, and community partners to ensure the organization’s long-term sustainability, raise its visibility as a leader in social services, and strengthen its capacity to deliver programs that meet the evolving needs of Brooklyn’s communities.

In the first 12–18 months, the Executive Director will be expected to :

  • Strengthen Financial Stability : Consolidate recent progress in the finance department, ensuring sound systems, timely reporting, and a sustainable financial model.
  • Advance Major Projects : Oversee the completion of the Turning Point Brooklyn, Inc. and Astella merger (or an alternative approach) to preserve housing and programs; lead the redevelopment of BCS’s 285 Schermerhorn headquarters.
  • Strategic Planning : Partner with the Board and staff to launch and implement a new three-year strategic plan that sets a clear vision and priorities for the organization.
  • Raise Public Profile : Increase visibility of BCS’s work and impact, positioning the organization as a recognized leader in social services across Brooklyn and New York City.
  • Expand Housing Development : Ensure the successful execution of the Atlantic Avenue supportive housing project and lay groundwork for future development initiatives.
  • The ideal candidate will have :

  • At least 10 years of senior executive leadership, ideally as an Executive Director or senior leader of a large, complex nonprofit, government, or advocacy organization.
  • Proven experience overseeing finances, budgets, and operations in organizations of comparable size and complexity.
  • Demonstrated success in fundraising and resource development, including cultivating individual donors, foundations, corporations, and managing government contracts.
  • Experience leading large teams of professionals; skilled at building and mentoring strong executive teams.
  • Background in human services, housing development, education, youth development, or related social service fields preferred.
  • Master’s degree in a relevant field (MPA, MSW, MBA, or equivalent) strongly preferred.
  • BCS is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, disability, veteran status, or any other protected status.

    Salary Range : $300,000 - $315,000

  • Generous paid vacation, sick leave, and holidays
  • Comprehensive health coverage, with optional dental and vision plans
