The Opportunity
Boys & Girls Clubs of Volusia/Flagler Counties’ (BGCVFC) mission is to inspire and enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens and leader. You will be responsible for bringing this mission to life in this community, as you work to ensure that the kids and teens in your care achieve great futures by providing a safe and fun space, an engaging club experience, and managing caring professionals to guide them along the way. As a proof point, 54% of Club alumni said the Club saved their life, so the impact you and your team will have on these kids and teens’ lives will be life changing.
BGCVFC was established in the mid-1990s as part of a broader movement of Boys & Girls Clubs. Its formation was driven by a community need to provide after-school programs and services that would support the educational, social, and emotional development of young people in these counties.
Today, Boys & Girls Clubs of Volusia/Flagler Counties is the leader in afterschool programming. We bridge the gap between school and home by creating unique, welcoming environments across our eight clubs. Our kids and teens enjoy themselves through stimulating and educational activities and develop supportive relationships with their peers and caring adults. By championing excellence and growth, our programs create lasting positive impacts on members, families, and the wider community.
Our Mission
At Boys & Girls Clubs of Volusia/Flagler Counties, we are dedicated to offering a world-class experience that ensures every young person who enters our doors is on the path to success. We aim for all our members to graduate from high school prepared for the future, exhibiting strong character, good citizenship, and a commitment to healthy living.
Leadership/Fiscal Responsibility: Reports to Board of Directors
Strategic Orientation - The ideal candidate will be able to draw a high level of insight from having successfully led in several different operating environments. The candidate will not only be able to set a compelling vision for the organization but will also be able to develop a strategy and structure to realize the vision and drive supporting plans and programs. An ability to assess current strengths, weaknesses,
opportunities, and threats (SWOT) and set priorities accordingly will enable this leader to position the organization for continued success in the years to come.
Team Leadership - This leader will have a strong track record of building and leading effective teams. They will be able to increase the capacity of the existing staff and raise the level of expertise of those they bring into the organization. They will also be a recognized leader in the community and be viewed as a peer among business leaders and other key stakeholders. Additionally, this leader will have the social range to connect, not just at the senior executive and Board level, but also with the kids the Clubs serve.
Results-Oriented - The successful candidate will have a track record of consistently delivering results in dynamic situations involving multiple stakeholders (e.g., school district, social service agencies, key donors, etc.). These results will relate not only to improvements in service quality but will also relate to broad community engagement. Being able to drive internal results (e.g., cost management, eliminating wasteful practices, improved quality) and external results (fundraising, brand awareness, advocacy) will be equally important.
Collaboration & Influencing - This leader will have demonstrated a track record of building and sustaining effective relationships with internal and external stakeholders alike. They will be particularly good at forging partnerships and working with a Board of Directors. They will be able to leverage excellent communication skills to build and engage a network of a broad range of stakeholders. They will share the vision with that network and engage them in that vision to garner their support.
