Executive Director

Breast Cancer Collective

Lead the Next Chapter of The Breast Cancer Collective

The Breast Cancer Collective is seeking an exceptional Executive Director to lead a respected and growing nonprofit organization dedicated to expanding access to breast cancer screening, diagnosis, education, and coordinated care.

Founded by breast surgeon, innovator, and entrepreneur Dr. David Weintritt , the Collective has spent more than a decade bringing together healthcare providers, nonprofit organizations, community leaders, philanthropic partners, and volunteers to remove barriers to care and improve outcomes for medically underserved communities.

Today, the organization stands at an exciting point in its evolution. Built on a decade of thoughtful leadership, trusted partnerships, and measurable community impact, the Breast Cancer Collective is well positioned for its next chapter of growth.

The Board of Directors is seeking an accomplished executive who has successfully built organizations, cultivated transformational partnerships, inspired philanthropic investment, and is energized by the opportunity to lead an organization where mission, innovation, and measurable impact come together.

This is an opportunity to build on a strong foundation while helping shape the future of breast health through collaboration, strategic leadership, and meaningful community partnerships.

The Next Decade

The Breast Cancer Collective has never measured success by the size of the organization, but by the lives it improves and the partnerships it builds.

Looking ahead, the Board envisions an organization that continues to expand its influence by deepening collaboration, accelerating innovation, and demonstrating measurable improvements in access to breast health services.

The next Executive Director will have the opportunity to help shape that future by:

  • Expanding strategic partnerships with healthcare systems, physicians, employers, foundations, corporations, and community organizations.
  • Strengthening philanthropic support through transformational donor relationships and innovative fundraising strategies.
  • Leveraging data and measurable outcomes to demonstrate impact, inform decision-making, and attract new investment.
  • Serving as a trusted convener, bringing together organizations that can accomplish more collectively than independently.
  • Positioning the Breast Cancer Collective as a recognized leader in improving equitable access to breast health services and reducing disparities in care.


The next chapter is not about becoming the largest organization. It is about becoming one of the most respected, collaborative, and impactful organizations advancing breast health.

The Leadership Opportunity

The Executive Director serves as the organization's chief executive and primary external leader. In partnership with the Board of Directors and Dr. Weintritt, the Executive Director will:

  • Lead the organization's long-term strategy and growth.
  • Build enduring relationships with donors, healthcare leaders, community partners, foundations, and volunteers.
  • Champion fundraising and long-term financial sustainability.
  • Serve as the organization's primary ambassador, cultivating partnerships that advance the mission and broaden the Collective's impact.


The role is intentionally designed to allow the Executive Director to focus on leadership, strategy, fundraising, and external relationships while partnering with an experienced Strategic Operations Lead responsible for operations, finance, technology, and organizational infrastructure.

Strategic Priorities

The Executive Director will lead implementation of the organization's strategic framework by advancing five priorities.

  • Expand Access: Increase access to timely breast cancer screening, diagnosis, education, and coordinated care through innovative partnerships and community-based initiatives.
  • Demonstrate Impact: Use data, evaluation, and measurable outcomes to strengthen accountability, improve decision-making, and clearly communicate organizational impact.
  • Build Sustainable Resources: Expand philanthropic support through major gifts, grants, corporate partnerships, healthcare collaborations, and diversified fundraising strategies.
  • Strengthen the Collective: Deepen relationships across healthcare systems, nonprofit organizations, volunteers, and community partners to build a stronger network of coordinated care.
  • Build Organizational Capacity: Ensure the organization remains financially strong, operationally effective, and positioned for thoughtful, sustainable growth.


The Ideal Candidate

We are seeking a collaborative, entrepreneurial leader who enjoys building organizations through partnerships rather than hierarchy.

The successful candidate is equally comfortable meeting with corporate executives, major donors, foundation leaders, Board members, elected officials, volunteers, and community organizations. They earn trust quickly, communicate with credibility, and bring people together around a common purpose.

They are energized by building relationships, creating opportunities, and helping organizations reach their full potential. They are strategic without losing sight of execution, collaborative without avoiding difficult decisions, and confident enough to lead while remaining humble enough to listen.

While nonprofit leadership experience is valuable, we also welcome candidates from healthcare, philanthropy, academic medicine, higher education, or other mission-driven organizations who have demonstrated exceptional leadership, fundraising success, and the ability to build lasting partnerships.

Experience & Qualifications

The ideal candidate will bring:

  • Significant executive leadership experience within a nonprofit organization, healthcare system, foundation, academic medical center, university, or other mission-driven enterprise.
  • A demonstrated record of success securing major gifts, cultivating donor relationships, and developing sustainable fundraising strategies.
  • Experience working collaboratively with an engaged Board of Directors.
  • Exceptional communication, relationship-building, and executive presence.
  • Strong financial stewardship and organizational leadership experience.
  • Success leading organizations through growth, change, and strategic planning.
  • A genuine commitment to improving healthcare access and strengthening communities.


Healthcare experience is beneficial but not required.

What Success Looks Like

First 90 Days

  • Build trusted relationships with Board members, staff, volunteers, healthcare partners, donors, and community leaders.
  • Develop a deep understanding of the organization's mission, partnerships, programs, and strategic priorities.
  • Establish credibility as a collaborative, thoughtful, and authentic leader.


First Year

  • Advance implementation of the strategic framework.
  • Strengthen fundraising and donor engagement.
  • Expand strategic partnerships and organizational visibility.
  • Strengthen long-term financial sustainability through diversified funding.
  • Foster a culture of collaboration, accountability, and continuous improvement.
  • Demonstrate measurable progress toward strategic priorities.


Three Years

  • Position the Breast Cancer Collective as a leading collaborative organization advancing equitable access to breast health services.
  • Demonstrate measurable improvements in organizational effectiveness and community impact.
  • Build an organization positioned for continued growth while remaining true to its collaborative mission and values.


About The Breast Cancer Collective

The Breast Cancer Collective exists to ensure every individual has timely access to breast cancer screening, diagnosis, education, and coordinated care, regardless of financial, geographic, or systemic barriers.

Rather than duplicating services, the Collective serves as a catalyst for collaboration, bringing together healthcare providers, nonprofit organizations, researchers, community organizations, corporate partners, and volunteers to strengthen pathways to care and improve measurable health outcomes.

Everything the organization does is guided by a simple belief: the best solutions are created when organizations work together on behalf of patients and families.

About Our Founder

The Breast Cancer Collective was founded by Dr. David Weintritt , a respected breast surgeon whose career has been defined by clinical excellence, innovation, and an unwavering commitment to improving the patient experience.

Throughout his career, Dr. Weintritt has combined medicine, technology, education, and entrepreneurship to challenge conventional approaches to breast health and create new models that improve access, outcomes, and quality of care.

Working alongside Dr. Weintritt offers a rare opportunity to partner with a visionary physician, entrepreneur, and advocate whose ideas, credibility, and commitment to innovation have helped shape breast health throughout the region. Together, the Executive Director and Dr. Weintritt will combine complementary strengths to expand the Collective's reach, deepen its impact, and guide its next decade of growth.

A Rare Leadership Opportunity

The Breast Cancer Collective has reached an exciting point in its evolution. With an engaged founder, strong community partnerships, and a clear strategic direction, the organization is well positioned for its next chapter.

The next Executive Director will have the opportunity to build on that momentum by expanding partnerships, strengthening philanthropy, increasing community impact, and helping more individuals gain access to life-saving breast health services.

For a leader who is energized by collaboration, innovation, relationship building, and mission-driven growth, this is an opportunity to create lasting impact alongside an exceptional Board, dedicated community partners, and one of the most respected physician leaders in breast health.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Statement

At the Breast Cancer Collective, were committed to building a workplace and community rooted in dignity, fairness, and respect. We believe our mission is stronger when people with different lived experiences and perspectives can participate fully.

We welcome staff, volunteers, interns, partners, and community members of all backgrounds, including across race, ethnicity, age, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, religion, disability, national origin, and education.

We work to reduce barriers to participation and to make our programs and opportunities accessible and inclusive. We expect everyone on our team to help create an environment where differences are valued, people are treated equitably, and feedback is handled with professionalism.
