Chief Executive Officer

Chief Executive Officer
San Antonio, TX

The San Antonio Area Foundation (the Area Foundation) was founded
in 1964 and is dedicated to helping residents living in and around
San Antonio create a philanthropic legacy. For decades, the Area
Foundation has distributed millions in grants and scholarships to
educate youth, preserve the environment, protect animals, fund
research and provide services that enhance the quality of life for
people in the San Antonio community.

Recently, the Board of Directors at San Antonio Area Foundation
defined two ambitious goals for the Area Foundation: first, to
focus its efforts on closing the opportunity gaps for those who
need support the most in San Antonio; second: to serve as the most
trusted and impactful philanthropic partner in the San Antonio
area. To achieve these goals, it is the expressed intent of the
organization to dramatically increase resources available to the
community. This will be achieved through new philanthropic giving
to support grantmaking in 17 zip codes across San Antonio that have
been highlighted by the Area Foundation as priorities for future
investment.

The next CEO of the San Antoino Area Foundation will have the
opportunity to develop key, actionable metrics that will form the
guiding strategies to achieve this vision and these priorities.
This will include partnership with the Board of Directors and the
staff to create broad alignment on targeted outcomes of the Area
Foundation in the years ahead. Building trust and engendering
partnership with the community, donors, professional advisors,
elected and appointed civic leaders, and nonprofit organizations
will be a critical activity for the CEO that will shape the
priorities of the organization in new and innovative ways.
Ultimately, it is the goal of the Area Foundation to double the
resources available to support critical needs in the community by
2027.

The successful candidate will find innovative ways to pursue,
cultivate and build strong donor and stakeholder relationships.
This person must be able to engender trust and empathy and relate

foundation sector is strongly preferred.

The qualified candidate must demonstrate success in reaching out to
the community, participating with people of diverse socioeconomic
backgrounds and building rapport with those who have varying
viewpoints and perceptions. High integrity, commitment, fortitude
and sensitivity are essential to success in this role.

$400,000 plus a performance based-structured bonus. Compensation
