The Opportunity Established in 1988, Community Resource Service (CRS) is a cornerstone of support for the Brantford, Brant, and Six Nations communities. Delivering vital assistance through its two primary pillars—the Brantford Food Bank and Community Employment Service—CRS meets the evolving needs of a region experiencing unprecedented growth. While the community’s expansion is driven by rapid residential development and proximity to the GTA, the needs for local support is increasing and significant: CRS serves approximately 10,000 individuals annually, reaching 1 in 10 members of our community. With the upcoming retirement of the Executive Director, the Board of Directors is seeking a dynamic, mission driven Executive Director to lead the organization and advance CRS’s vision for stronger, more equitable communities. As the senior leader of Community Resource Service, the Executive Director is responsible for overseeing all program development, administration, operations, finances, fundraising, community relations, and human resources, while supervising key leaders and providing HR oversight for all 14 staff. The Executive Director stewards a $2.2 million annual operating budget and ensures long term organizational sustainability, accountability, and impact. This is a meaningful opportunity for a collaborative, purpose-driven leader to become a champion for our neighbours navigating income-related challenges. If you are a compassionate advocate, we invite you to channel your passion into a role that transforms lives and strengthens the fabric of our communities. Position Requirements Education and Experience - Post secondary education and 2-3 years Senior Leadership experience or combination of both - Proven leadership experience within nonprofit, community, or social-impact settings - Robust organizational and problem-solving skills, with a proven ability to prioritize work, assess complex issues, and generate decisive solutions that advance organizational goals. - Strong operational background with expertise in administration, human resources, financial management, and diversified fundraising. - Outstanding communication skills with the ability to effectively communicate and engage a wide variety of stakeholders. - Commitment to equity, inclusion, and community centered service - Inspirational leadership style with the ability to build a positive, collaborative, and mission driven culture - Understanding of non-profit governance and experience working effectively with a Board of Directors Leadership Attributes - Deep commitment to the organization’s mission of providing pathways to food security and employment resources. - Human-centered leadership style that maintains a motivating, visible presence among staff and volunteers, while keeping community orientation at the heart of all initiatives. - A growth mindset focused on driving organizational enhancement to meet the increasing demands of both the food bank and employment services. - Creative and innovative approach to organizational challenges, balanced by strategic focus and sound decision making. - Community builder and “connector” mindset with proven experience building results-oriented collaborations and partnerships. How to Apply Candidates are invited to submit a cover letter and résumé to Karen@Edgepath.ca or on LinkedIn.
