The American Cancer Society (ACS) exists because the burden of cancer is unacceptably high. ACS and their influential nonprofit, nonpartisan advocacy affiliate, the ACS Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN), are committed to ending cancer as we know it, for everyone. Through mission pillar work in advocacy, research, and patient support, along with development efforts, ACS and ACS CAN are working to reduce these cancer disparities and advance health equity.
Critical to their success is the recruitment of a new Chief Executive Officer (CEO), who will lead one of the nations most important and impactful nonprofit organizations, as well as its influential nonprofit, nonpartisan advocacy affiliate. The CEO will partner with the ACS and ACS CAN Boards to set bold vision and strategic direction, inspire innovation, and provide dynamic leadership both internally and externally to advance ACSs mission of ending cancer as we know it for everyone. They will play a critical role in driving impactful cancer programs and initiatives, and in fundraising, ensuring a successful capital campaign, cultivating major donors, and optimizing responsive digital channels to maximize sustainable revenue generation.
Reporting to the Board of Directors, the ideal candidate will be a highly accomplished, visionary, and strategic leader with multi-sector (private, public, and/or nonprofit) experience and a record of strengthening organizations, delivering breakthrough results, and setting the direction for sustainable growth and impact in the future. The CEO will have led organizations of significant scope, scale, and complexity, served, and partnered with multi-stakeholders, and established operating policies and procedures commensurate with the organizations reach and size. They will have a record of accomplishment leading organizational change to achieve a mission and strategic priorities, building agility into the workforce, and instilling a culture of accountability. This will require a leader who is innovative, dynamic, and courageous, and who understands how to cultivate relationships with leaders in healthcare and the scientific community, government, business, donors, staff, and volunteers. An understanding of the cancer space or broader health landscape is highly desirable, and while it is not required that the candidate have an MD or PhD, it is preferred that the next CEO have significant experience(s) with patients along any portion of the patients journey.
