Job description

Overview


Launched in September 2018, The Daily Memphian is one of the nation’s leading local news organizations, and the must-read, primary daily online publication for the Memphis community. Led by a seasoned team of veteran journalists, The Daily Memphian is not just in Memphis, it is of Memphis.


With a $6 million annual budget and more than 50 employees, The Daily Memphian is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that’s business-driven. Eighty percent of the organization’s revenue comes from subscriptions, advertising and other earned sources. Philanthropy accounts for 20%, supporting the organization’s free-access programs and the journalism that earned revenue doesn’t cover.


The Daily Memphian is seeking a collaborative, mission-driven Chief Executive Officer to guide its next phase of growth and drive increased business sustainability. The ideal candidate is a builder and a doer – not a bureaucrat.


They’re a listener and collaborator who leads by building relationships and credibility and uniting around a shared purpose.


This is not a role where one will issue orders from a corner office. The CEO will work shoulder-to-shoulder with a deeply experienced staff to strengthen and expand the Memphian’s vital role in the community.


Responsibilities


The Chief Executive Officer will:

  • Oversee business operations, development and strategy to ensure The Daily Memphian remains financially strong and mission aligned.
  • Define and clearly communicate – both internally and externally – The Daily Memphian’s vision, mission and long-term strategy.
  • Ensure decisions align with the organization’s values and mission.
  • Build external relationships with local, regional and national partners, funders and civic leaders.
  • Deepen The Daily Memphian’s engagement with Memphis — ensuring the organization reflects, serves and listens to the community it covers.
  • Encourage innovative approaches to journalism, revenue and community impact while maintaining the organization’s independence and integrity.
  • Establish and monitor performance goals and key performance indicators.
  • Lead, mentor and support the Daily Memphian’s senior management team.
  • Operate self-sufficiently in a lean, entrepreneurial environment that lacks an extensive corporate infrastructure and culture.
  • Maintain a healthy and transparent culture and workplace environment.


Requirements


  • At least 12 years of professional experience, including at least five in senior management roles.
  • Strong business operations and P&L management experience required; CEO experience strongly preferred.
  • Able to build trust and respect across staff, board, funders and the Memphis community.
  • Strong understanding of organizational management, finance and revenue diversification in a media or nonprofit setting.
  • Experience working with complex financial reports and the tools used to manage those documents (Excel, Google Sheets, etc.)
  • Background working with paid subscriptions, including pricing, discounting, marketing, etc.
  • Eager to become (or excited to be already) a Memphian and professionally invested in the community.
  • Brings experience extending beyond traditional corporate media; ideally includes exposure to nonprofit, entrepreneurial or civic leadership.
  • Can balance short-term execution and executing a long-term vision.


Personal Attributes / Leadership Style


  • You build trust by taking time to understand an organization’s culture, history and people before making significant decisions.
  • You’ve gained valuable experience by getting your hands dirty in your jobs.
  • You’re used to having to juggle many tasks without a significant support staff to lean on.
  • You’re intellectually curious and stay informed about industry trends, risks, and opportunities.
  • You set clear personal goals and hold yourself accountable to them.
  • You inspire others via authenticity — not corporate jargon.


Reporting & Structure


The CEO reports to The Daily Memphian’s board of directors.
