Job description

Executive Director - Alabama Area

Braven is a national nonprofit that prepares promising college students to secure a strong first opportunity after college graduation through a career-accelerating program.

We work with higher education and employer partners to offer a life-changing experience that begins with a semester-long course for college students, followed by support that lasts through graduation.

Together, our ambition is to help rebuild the middle class and revitalize the American Dream.

About the Role

In order to achieve its ambition of serving 80,000-100,000 Fellows over the next decade, Braven is hiring an Executive Director (ED) in Alabama (AL). This person will lead our efforts to launch and oversee Braven's potential new AL region, including its first potential new higher education partner within AL. The ED will also work with the Central External Affairs team and the future AL External Affairs Director to raise roughly $9M for the first three years of programming before the launch of the new school site, among other external priorities.

Should a partnership with a higher education institution in the AL solidify, this temporary position would become a permanent full-time regional role and lead the AL team as the region's most senior-level executive and the face of Braven. They will be responsible for all major outcomes in the region and set the vision and direction for how Braven comes alive successfully in their region. They build and lead the regional program team and a regional advisory board, guide expansion decisions alongside their regional board, manage their External Affairs Director and lead their External Affairs strategy in close collaboration with the central External Affairs team, serve as a Braven organizational leader on the Alignment Team (AT) and ensure they and Braven are the primary thought leaders in the college-to-career space in their region.

The ED will initially report to the Chief of Regional Success and Innovation and ultimately transition to report to the Founder & CEO and be part of Braven's Alignment Team (AT), the organization's leadership body.
