This is a unique opportunity to guide a respected national nonprofit through a leadership transition, strengthen organizational capacity, expand strategic partnerships, and increase philanthropic support to grow both revenue and impact.

The successful candidate will bring strong operational and financial management with entrepreneurial thinking and a deep commitment to improving outcomes for children with cancer and their families.  A demonstrated track record of nonprofit leadership, fundraising success, strategic planning, and relationship building is sought. They will be an engaging communicator who can inspire donors, board members, healthcare partners, volunteers, and families around Compass to Care's mission. Experience leading organizational growth, cultivating major gifts and corporate partnerships, and working collaboratively with boards is highly valued. Comfort level working in a small office and rolling up the sleeves to get the job done is required.
