President & CEO

The Role:

The President and CEO will report directly to Clarke’s Board of Trustees, an elected group of volunteer members with connections to the hearing loss community and an unwavering commitment to Clarke’s mission. The President and CEO is responsible for Clarke’s continued success and world class reputation, ensuring operational excellence and program impact, overseeing fundraising efforts to ensure Clarke’s long-term sustainability, and maintaining and extending Clarke’s standing in the field of education for children who are deaf or hard of hearing. The President and CEO is responsible for the following direct reports: Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), Chief Program Officer (“CPO”), and Chief Communications Officer (“CCO”), among other positions. Fundraising and institutional development are two of the primary focuses of the role in addition to the financial sustainability and operational success.

The position is remote and can be filled by a candidate in any area reasonably accessible to the Clarke campuses, which are located along the East Coast from Boston, MA to Jacksonville, FL. Due to the work-force being located exclusively in the EDT time zone, candidates in the EDT and CDT time zones will be given primary consideration.

The President and CEO is an experienced non-profit, relationship centered leader who gracefully combines operational and financial expertise with visionary leadership and partners proactively and productively with the Board, the organization’s leadership team, and key external constituents.
