Building strategic partnerships with local leadership to grow individual giving and enhance overall resources.

Leading board development and providing strategic guidance to support organizational transformation.

Implementing safety assessments and risk management to maintain safe, impactful environments for youth.

Offering executive coaching and onboarding for new CEOs to ensure their success and longevity.

Your role will be to build strong, trusting partnerships with new leaders, conducting thorough orientations on the services and resources available through BGCA.

Your leadership will focus on empowering these organizations to act with autonomy while remaining aligned with the larger mission.

You'll ensure that every organization completes necessary assessments—like Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), Standards of Organizational Effectiveness, and the Formula for Impact Assessment - so they can continuously improve and benchmark their progress.

You’ll play a critical role in promoting the professional development of key management staff, including CEOs, by identifying learning opportunities, encouraging participation in regional and national conferences, and supporting leadership training.

Whether it’s board recruitment or transformation, you will provide hands-on, consultative support that aligns each organization with best practices in governance, development, and safety.

By guiding the establishment of new, self-sustaining sites, you will directly contribute to the expansion of BGCA’s mission and impact on youth.

You will also work with organizations to create and implement outcome-driven strategies that focus on enhancing the Club experience for members.

This includes analyzing data to increase member participation and retention and ensuring that programmatic outcomes align with the overall goals of the BGCA Movement.

In partnership with local leaders, you'll help clubs design strategic plans that develop leaders at all levels, ensuring a sustainable and impactful presence in their communities.

You will be called upon to participate in regional and national staff meetings, as well as contribute to the broader strategic initiatives of the organization.

You’ll conduct face-to-face visits to ensure clubs are meeting key standards, offering hands-on support when needed to develop remediation plans and ensure continued excellence.

You’ll be expected to adhere to the highest ethical standards, integrating BGCA’s core values of integrity, excellence, and inclusion into all aspects of your work.

Whether conducting safety assessments or leading a strategic growth initiative, you will embody the mission-driven focus that defines BGCA’s work.

With travel opportunities up to 70%, you'll be on the frontlines of our movement, shaping the future of youth-focused organizations.
