Job Summary

Position Summary

Archstone Foundation is seeking a visionary and mission-driven President and CEO to provide leadership to this important organization focused on older Californians and their caregivers. The ideal candidate will have an exceptional record of achievement and knowledge in the ways that systems of care impact this population. The new President and CEO must be a trusted leader with strong communication skills and provide a dynamic presence in the rapidly evolving California aging policy environment. A history of deep commitment to the principles of justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion is also essential.

Responsibilities

Responsibilities

The President and CEO will work effectively with an active Board of Directors to implement the vision of the foundation and is the leader of seven talented staff members. The CEO is also the main liaison with important state officials and service provider executives to improve services to older persons throughout the state, as well as working with our philanthropic partners to carry out our mission.

This new leader will be responsible for working with the Outsourced Chief Investment Officer (OCIO), Accounting Firm, and Finance & Investment Committee to provide oversight and cohesive management of the $110 million portfolio that funds the foundation's grantmaking and operations. Since this is a set pool of capital, fundraising is not involved and the responsibility to both maintain and grow the capital is therefore important.
