About the Role

The Company is seeking a Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to provide strategic, financial, operational, administrative, and risk-management leadership while strengthening organizational governance and effectiveness. The CEO will represent the organization externally, advance its profile and mission, and guide program growth and revenue diversification.



Responsibilities include leading a skilled team, fostering an innovative and collaborative culture, and developing practical responses to complex conservation challenges. The CEO will also build and sustain partnerships and help position the organization to address future needs.

The ideal candidate will be an inspiring, trusted leader with strategic vision, a growth mindset, and a demonstrated commitment to wildlife and nature conservation. Significant leadership experience in a comparable membership- or program-based nonprofit, government, or the private sector is required. Candidates should bring robust communication, relationship-building, policy advocacy, and partnership-development skills, including experience working with Indigenous organizations, government, private-sector partners, foundations, and nonprofits. Excellent people-management, team-building, mentoring, and coaching abilities are essential, along with integrity, sound judgment, and a commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. Proficiency in English and French is strongly preferred.
