About the Role

The Company is seeking a Chief Operating Officer (COO) to play a pivotal role in the organization's mission to strengthen communities and empower individuals. The COO will be responsible for the financial strength, infrastructure, technology, systems, and operational discipline necessary to support the full continuum of care, from prevention to crisis response. This includes leading a 12-person team across finance, information technology, and operations, and supervising direct reports in these areas. The ideal candidate will be a builder, with a focus on designing and implementing an integrated, continuously improving operational structure. They must be a mission-driven leader with a passion for expanding access to mental and behavioral health services, and a strong background in financial management, enterprise leadership, and technology enablement. Key responsibilities for the COO at the company include executive leadership, departmental leadership in finance, information technology, and operations, and a strategic approach to data collection and analysis. The role requires a hands-on operational leader who can balance long-term strategy with day-to-day execution, and who is adept at managing change and building capacity in a resource-conscious environment. The successful candidate will be a relational leader with emotional intelligence, capable of engaging and influencing staff, Board members, and other stakeholders. Experience in a nonprofit or mission-driven environment, particularly in a rapidly scaling or matrixed setting, is preferred. The COO will be instrumental in the organization's growth and development, ensuring that the necessary systems and approaches are in place to support future opportunities and challenges.
