The Opportunity

As executive director of Ontario Sailing, you will be central to the development of current and future sailors from novices to champions. You will work with close to 200 member organizations who lead
sailing in their communities, and you will partner with dedicated volunteers and a committed association staff to develop lifelong sailors through leadership and programming. You ideally have sailing experience and appreciate the adventure of reaching a new destination and goal.

Your work helping others to achieve their full potential is matched by your leadership experience and record of growth, ideally in a member-based organization (associations, charities, and/or clubs). In past roles, you’ve created trust in the organization because of the support provided and the value delivered.

Your approach is to enthusiastically identify opportunities and embrace challenges, building strong relationships with stakeholders, and leading an effective team to excel in meeting the needs of the organization and its clients. Outcomes you have mastered include diversifying programs and growing revenue.

Ontario Sailing’s vision is to champion the sport of sailing, enabling it to flourish and grow, becoming the
leading, lifelong recreational and competitive sport in Ontario.

Ontario Sailing is the recognized not-for-profit governing body for sailing in the province of Ontario and supports the sport of sailing across the province. Staff and volunteers provide leadership in a variety of different areas including training and certification for instructors and race officials, athlete development, and the Ontario Sailing Team. Additionally, Ontario Sailing provides support with governance and administration to its member organizations throughout the province.

The valued work of the association is charted by a strategic plan with four priorities focusing on member
organization development and engagement; the development of sailors; the development of instructors and coaches; and organizational sustainability.

Ontario Sailing consists of member organizations which include clubs, sailing schools, camps and affiliates
that represent over 10,000 member families and service over 100,000 boaters. Ontario Sailing is the governing body for sailing in the province of Ontario with a close partnership with the Ministry of Heritage, Sport, Tourism and Culture Industries.
