About You

You are a seasoned operations leader with extensive experience in managing a diversified portfolio of organizational functions including HR, Finance, Events, IT, Legal, and Board Administration. Your expertise isn't necessarily in the intricacies of each of these fields, but in effectively administering and optimizing them. You're most proficient in financial oversight, balancing day-to-day management with long-term strategic objectives. Skilled in working in a technology-driven environment, you're adept at using digital tools to enhance productivity and achieve organizational goals. You anticipate problems before they become issues, offering invaluable foresight in a fast-paced setting.

  • Adaptable: Willing to be flexible in a dynamic work environment while maintaining effectiveness and focus.

About the Role

The Director of Operations is a senior position responsible for overseeing the operational functions of our non-profit. You will be instrumental in ensuring the smooth day-to-day running of our services and administration, while supporting our long-term strategic initiatives. You will also oversee the fractional management of external service providers in areas such as legal, financial services, HR, IT, board services, and travel & events. You will be responsible for building internal capacity for these functions with the goal of transitioning to a fully-internal delivery of administrative and financial services within two to three years.

  • At least 10 years of relevant career experience in an operations capacity, with a strong focus on financial management.
