\n

REACH, Inc. is seeking an experienced Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) to join our executive leadership team and help shape the future of one of Alaska's leading nonprofit organizations serving individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

\n

\n

This is far more than a traditional Human Resources leadership role.

\n

\n

As our CAO, you'll lead the organization's people strategy while helping integrate the administrative systems that keep a complex, mission-driven organization running effectively. You'll work alongside executive leaders to strengthen workforce development, organizational effectiveness, budgeting support, cross-department collaboration, and operational excellence.

\n

\n
• Leading change management initiatives that improve efficiency and accountability
\n
• Developing organization-wide training and workforce development programs
\n
• Partnering closely with the Executive Director and Chief Financial Officer on strategic initiatives

\n
• Strategic planning
\n
• Cross-functional collaboration
\n
• Operational efficiency
\n
• Workforce engagement
