The successful candidate will be a key member of the leadership team, responsible for designing and leading a cohesive strategy that ensures long-term sustainability and impact. This role demands a systems-minded operator with a strong external presence, capable of seamlessly transitioning between strategic planning and hands-on execution. The CPO will work closely with executive leadership to refine the organization's partnership and revenue strategy, supervise a team of development professionals, and provide the CEO with data-driven insights to inform external relationships. A significant focus will be on building and maintaining a robust revenue system, including philanthropic fundraising, corporate partnerships, and earned income, while also identifying and advancing high-impact strategic partnerships.
