About the Role

The Company seeks a Chief Executive Officer to provide strategic leadership, strengthen member value, and build the organizational capacity needed for sustainable growth. Working in close partnership with a volunteer board, the CEO will turn strategic priorities into measurable plans, support effective governance, and oversee the association management partner’s performance. Responsibilities include advancing membership, education, advocacy, and revenue development; overseeing financial planning and reserves; and building productive relationships with members, volunteers, affiliates, sponsors, and allied partners. The CEO will also guide the operational aspects of educational and certification programs while partnering with clinical volunteers on content and advocacy priorities. Candidates must hold a bachelor’s degree and bring senior leadership experience in association management, ideally within a medical, health, or clinical specialty organization. Required qualifications include success working with a volunteer board, growing membership and revenue, developing sponsorship and industry partnerships, managing budgets, and holding vendors accountable while maintaining strong relationships. A collaborative leadership style and commitment to teamwork are essential. A master’s or terminal degree is preferred, as are an association executive credential and experience in enterprise education, advocacy, or dermatology; physician associate candidates should also have relevant graduate education, professional practice, and executive-level leadership capabilities.
