Executive Acacia Jobs (NOW HIRING)

HOPE HAVEN RWANDA

Chief Executive Officer

Hope Haven Rwanda invites nominations and applications for the position of Chief Executive Officer. Hope Haven Rwanda transforms students and their families through Christ-centered education and discipleship with uncompromising excellence, shaping the future of Rwanda and stewarding Christian world leaders. In early 2012 Hope Haven Christian School opened in the rural community of Murindi, starting with fewer than 100 students learning in a mud house, a tent, and under an acacia tree. From those humble beginnings, the campus steadily expanded to include a purpose-built nursery and primary school facilities, a state-of-the art secondary school with boarding, computer and science labs, large auditorium, and a new hub for innovation, the Leadership Institute, now serving more than 2,000 students from preschool through high school.

The CEO reports to the President and Founder. The CEO will be a faith-driven, globally minded leader who can raise transformational capital, lead across cultures, and steward a mission-centric organization with high integrity and operational discipline. The CEO’s primary responsibilities and expectations for leadership can be summarized in three main categories, including commitment to mission and values, fundraising and development, and non-profit executive leadership. Competitive candidates will be faith-driven non-profit leaders who have both the experience and the desire to roll up their sleeves as a capital campaign leader. Desired core personal values include authentic and lived faith, mission-anchored resilience, relational and trust building instincts, and cultural humility and adaptability. Desired core professional capabilities include transformational fundraising and strategic and operational integration skills. Specific experience leading K-12 institutions is not required as the School itself is managed locally in Rwanda. This position is US-based and remote, however, there will be an expectation that the CEO will be available to travel to Rwanda, leading donor trips in particular, and for oversight visits, to the School multiple times a year for about two or so weeks at a time. Most of the US-based team is located near Denver. It is anticipated that the salary for this position will be $250,000. Hope Haven is an EEO employer and committed to following all applicable federal and state employment/non-discrimination laws, offers a welcoming environment in service to one another, stakeholders supported, and communities called home. The team does all of this with kindness, empathy, and respect for each other.
