The successful candidate will be responsible for strategic leadership, financial management, operations, and community engagement. This role requires a mission-aligned leader with a deep commitment to the values and culture of the institution, a minimum of 10 years of senior leadership experience, and a strong service mindset.

Key responsibilities for the Executive Director include partnering with the Head of School and the Board on strategic planning, providing leadership to the senior business office team, and serving as a key advisor on financial and operational matters. The ideal candidate will be a strategic thinker, operationally minded, and technologically savvy, with a proven track record in financial management, and experience in a school or nonprofit environment.
