Job Description
Our client, a well-established, community-based not‑for‑profit organization, is seeking an Interim Chief Executive Officer to provide executive leadership during a period of transition.

The Mandate
Reporting to the Board of Directors, the Interim CEO will operate as a trusted advisor, change agent, and organizational stabilizer, with a dual focus:
Executive Stewardship
- Provide visible, credible leadership across the organization, ensuring continuity of operations, culture, and stakeholder confidence
- Maintain organizational performance across programs, fundraising, stakeholder engagement, and community presence
- Partner closely with the Board to ensure sound governance, transparency, and alignment on priorities
