Job description

The Cooper Foundation is currently seeking an Executive Director (ED) to provide visionary leadership, strategic direction and operational oversight. The ED will work closely with the Board of Directors to fulfill the organization's mission and maximize community impact in the Raleigh / NC service area and oversee the Foundation’s expansion to Atlanta. The ED is responsible for working with the organization’s partners to fulfill housing stability grant requests, identifying strategic partners, fundraising, coordinating with Cooper Tacia’s finance and marketing teams, and engaging with the community.

Background

Founded in 2023, the Cooper Charitable Foundation was created with the mission to improve people’s lives by helping them secure stable housing. John Cooper, our founder, and his family come from quite humble beginnings. Each of them understands the power of stability and safety in changing the trajectory of one's life. The Cooper Foundation was created to honor his own family and to express gratitude for his journey. 

John learned about transitional housing grants while involved with Haven in Lee County, a non-profit providing assistance to victims of domestic violence and sexual assault. The Cooper Charitable Foundation adapted this concept and created Housing Stability Grants to address the critical issue of housing accessibility in our communities.

Our grants provide financial assistance in two ways – helping working people access housing or preventing people from being evicted due to life circumstances.

The majority of our grants help people pay move-in fees such as security deposits, utility deposits and first and last month’s rent. What we discovered is that many unsheltered people are working; they can pay their rent, but they can’t save enough money for the upfront fees required by most landlords. This is the biggest barrier to safe and accessible housing.

We also assist those who are working but cannot keep up with their monthly expenses due to life circumstances. Issues such as illness, mental health, a car accident, job loss, divorce or domestic violence can all impact people’s lives in different ways. We help people pay their rent and utilities or pay for car repairs or other expenses. 

Key Responsibilities

Strategic Leadership

  • Develop and implement the organization's strategic plan in collaboration with the Board of Directors and Advisory Board.
  • Host at least two Board meetings in person to help with strategy development and familiarize members with foundation partners, building trust and leadership among the team.
  • Host four Advisory Board meetings annually to help with fundraising, events and strategy.
  • Foster innovation and continuous improvement across all organizational functions.
  • Establish repeatable processes that allow for the organization and the Board to enable its mission.

Board Relations

  • Work with the Board of Directors on grant funding requests received from partner organizations with the goal of timely voting turnarounds (48 hours).

  • Serve as a visible ambassador for the organization by attending partner events, housing conferences, and community / business organization events where donors and potential donors may be present.
  • Represent the organization with government officials, funders, media and community stakeholders.

  • Advocate for issues consistent with the organization's mission.
