About the Role

The Company is seeking an Executive Director to provide strategic and operational leadership, translate organizational priorities into clear goals, and guide continued growth and impact. The role includes fostering a collaborative workplace, building leadership capacity, and championing high-quality, person-centred services that promote dignity, well-being, inclusion, and belonging for people with developmental disabilities and autism. The Executive Director will ensure the organization’s faith-based identity and values are reflected in its programs, oversee financial stewardship, and serve as a key strategic partner to the Board. The role also involves strengthening relationships with participants, families, staff,



volunteers, funders, government, and community partners, while advancing sustainability through donor engagement and recent funding opportunities.

Candidates should bring senior leadership experience in a complex, community-based nonprofit or human services organization; experience in developmental or social services is an asset. Advanced education beyond the undergraduate level, ideally a master’s degree or credential in nonprofit management, is preferred, though equivalent senior leadership experience may be considered. Strong relationship-building, communication, financial, and organizational leadership skills are required. The ideal candidate is collaborative, emotionally intelligent, approachable, and committed to inclusion, dignity, and a human rights-based approach, with a meaningful connection to Jewish life, values, and community.
