Chief Financial Officer - SJCS
As Chief Financial Officer for St. John’s Community Services (SJCS), you will set the strategic direction for finance across the $35 million organization. You will collaborate with the president/CEO, deputy CEO, and Board to evaluate new growth opportunities. You will manage a team of six as you reevaluate current revenue, cash flows, and cost structures and streamline processes and technology to ensure our programs are sustainable. Having pioneered the community engagement approach for our current services, now mandated by funders, but facing escalating service costs and declining Medicaid funding, we know the time has come to evolve our business model to adapt to the current environment.
Your initial focus will be assessing current practices within the finance team and determining which program models will be most effective, with the intention of upgrading and positioning us for growth, allowing us the privilege to continue advancing community support and opportunities for people living with disabilities. You will work closely with senior leaders to manage budgets, control costs, generate revenue, and drive for operational efficiencies that ensure the organization is running on sound financial management practices. We are looking for a financial leader with a powerful mixture of personal humility and indomitable will for the cause
Organization Overview
SJCS is a 501(c)(3) direct service provider, a community builder, and a fearless, pioneering, and passionate advocate for people with disabilities.

We know there are additional populations of people we can serve (perhaps where our expertise in outcomes-based service delivery and an empowering model of positive behavioral support could make a significant impact). We know there are other significant sources of local, state, and federal government funding we could pursue (Department of Education, Department of Labor, or other funders where our expertise in program development for a difficult-to-serve population could make a significant impact.) We believe there may also be significant private funding available, including building a medical model of care where our expertise in providing support for the social determinants of health could make a significant impact.

Review and approve all contracts that have a financial impact on the organization and ensure that management is well aware of the financial implications of entering into those contracts. Provide financial input to the organization’s strategic planning process, ensuring that a long-range financial plan is part of the strategic plan and that the plan is updated at least annually. Review finances and provide strategic business advice on all new programs as well as prospective mergers and acquisitions.
- Reporting.

Although the energy intensity of the U.S. economy has steadily improved since 1980, there are large and cost-effective energy efficiency opportunities that can reduce energy use in 2050 by 40-60% relative to current forecasts.Cutting industry’s carbon emissions will require significant investment and a deep understanding of the interplay between market forces and policy impacts.

Our research projects often result in externally reviewed, written research reports, as well as fact sheets, formal presentations, webinars, press interviews, online blogs, editorials, videos, journal articles, and others. Your team will also provide technical assistance to outside stakeholders including presentation of ACEEE research, writing memos, and submitting formal comments, as well as convening stakeholders.

Program Director - BroadFutures
Position
In just five years, BroadFutures is revolutionizing the way young people with learning disabilities enter the workforce. The need is great – approximately 1 in 5 Americans, or 20 percent of the U.S. population, have learning disabilities and 45 percent of these adults are unemployed. BroadFutures is working to disrupt the status quo by providing internships which foster independence, self-advocacy, and successful employment. Paid transitional employment is one of the strongest predictors of positive post-school outcomes for youth with disabilities.
In this role as the Program Director, you will report to the CEO and be responsible for the overall coordination, management, and administration of our program. You will oversee several staff as well as working with our Director of Program Support and Executive Functioning Coach, as well as our service providers and others to ensure successful program delivery.

This is an exciting time to join our team. You will have the ability to have a direct impact on our expansion efforts and broadening our reach.

Your management of the program will allow the CEO to focus more of her time on expanding relationships and growing the organization.
Organization
As the only program of its kind in the country, our participants are placed into paid internships designed to provide exposure and experience in a professional work environment. And since our internships are specifically constructed to provide meaningful and economic value to both intern and employer, employers’ needs are identified and correlated with the education, experience, skills, and interest of our interns. In addition to gaining a capable, committed, and diverse workforce, employers derive additional benefits through their commitment: 72 percent of consumers say they would recommend a brand that supports a good cause and are more likely to discuss the good deeds that a company does rather than their financial performance.
Our highly successful model incorporates innovative and holistic training and mentoring for adults between the ages of 18 and 26. The 9-12 week program combines communication and drama to deliver a curriculum that incorporates role-play, improvisation, and creative scene development. Yoga and mindfulness are also integrated to address stress reduction and tolerance. The result is motivated, confident, resilient, and skilled individuals who successfully return to school or work.
