President and Chief Executive Officer / président-directeur général, présidente-directrice générale

$150k - $170k per year

Indigenous professionals

The Canadian Association of Gift Planners’ (CAGP) mission is to expand resources for causes and communities by educating, advocating and increasing equitable access to charitable gift planning. Established in 1993, CAGP is the only Canadian association that brings together charitable fundraisers and professional advisors. Grounded in continual learning, meaningful networking, and a commitment to sharing knowledge, CAGP’s 1,600 members support each other across diverse disciplines. The organization’s 15 local Chapters play a vital role in this work, building relationships and engaging members to advance philanthropy and strategic charitable gift planning nationwide.

It is within this context that CAGP welcomes applications for the appointment of its President and Chief Executive Officer, commencing Spring2027, or soon thereafter.

Reporting to the Board of Directors, the President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) provides strategic and operational leadership for CAGP, setting direction and operationalising the 2025-2029 Strategic Plan. Working in close partnership with the Board, the CEO advances CAGP’s mission and serves as CAGP’s lead spokesperson and advocate with members, Chapters, partners, government, and the broader charitable sector. The CEO is responsible for the long-term sustainability of the organization, including its financial health, the growth of its programs and membership, and the stewardship of its resources. Leading a remote-first team of 11, the CEO nurtures CAGP’s culture of trust, collaboration, and respectful, constructive dialogue, and supports the team as champions of the mission. The CEO also serves as Executive Director of the CAGP Foundation under a service agreement, leading the development of the Foundation’s annual workplan and budget, ensuring legal and regulatory compliance, and supporting its fundraising and donor stewardship.

Candidates should have an established record in senior leadership roles in the nonprofit sector, ideally from a national organization with affiliate members. As a seasoned senior leader, you are knowledgeable in governance best practices and ideally have experience working with a board of a charitable organization. You bring strong financial acumen, including experience developing and managing budgets, forecasting, with organizational risk, and have a solid working knowledge of the federal and provincial requirements that govern registered charities, including Canada Revenue Agency. You enjoy motivating, developing, and retaining a remote team that is highly engaged, passionate and mission driven. Colleagues recognize your proven experience cultivating relationships with donors, your skill in building and sustaining strong relationships with relevant sector organizations and the federal government, as well as your service orientation to a membership base and Chapter affiliates. Your communications experience includes comfort with public speaking to enhance brand awareness, organizational visibility and best practices in the charitable/nonprofit sector, and with serving as a spokesperson for an organization. Candidates must hold values that align with CAGP’s commitment to advancing and embedding diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) across all its work. As CAGP serves members across Canada, proficiency in both English and French is considered a strong asset.

Location/WFH:

CAGP offers a remote-first environment, but given the organization’s mandate, candidates must be in close proximity to a national airport and will be required to travel regularly.

Salary Range and Compensation Package:

$150,000 – 170,000, commensurate with experience. The total compensation package includes an employer-paid benefits package, matching RRSP contribution, professional development fund, and paid vacation.

Use of AI:

Griffith Group Executive Search does not use artificial intelligence to screen, assess, or select applicants for a position.

Reason for posting:

Upcoming vacancy due to retirement.

CAGP welcomes and encourages applications from all qualified individuals, including, but not limited to, women, Indigenous persons, racialized persons, persons with disabilities and persons of all sexual orientations and/or gender identities.

All qualified candidates are welcome to apply; however, priority will be given to those legally eligible to work in Canada.

La mission de l’Association canadienne des professionnels en dons planifiés (ACPDP) consiste à prôner et étendre l’accès équitable à la planification des dons de bienfaisance et à éduquer le public sur cette question, afin d’accroître les ressources pour les causes et les communautés. L’ACPDP, qui a été créée en 1993, est la seule association canadienne réunissant à la fois des professionnels de la collecte de fonds au sein d’organismes de bienfaisance et des professionnels des services-conseils. Les 1600 membres se soutiennent mutuellement dans diverses disciplines, s’appuyant sur la formation continue, un réseautage instructif et un engagement à faire partager leurs connaissances. Les 15 chapitres locaux de l’organisation jouent un rôle essentiel dans ce travail: ils créent des liens et mobilisent les membres afin de promouvoir la philanthropie et la planification stratégique des dons caritatifs à l’échelle nationale.

C’est dans ce contexte que l’ACPDP invite les personnes intéressées à présenter leur candidature au poste de président-directeur général ou présidente‑directrice générale (PDG), dont le mandat débutera au printemps2027 ou peu après.

Le ou laPDG relève du conseil d’administration, et assure la direction stratégique et opérationnelle de l’ACPDP en définissant les orientations et en mettant en œuvre le Plan stratégique de2025‑2029. En étroite collaboration avec le conseil d’administration, le ou laPDG fait progresser la mission de l’ACPDP et en est le principal porte‑parole et défenseur auprès des membres, des chapitres, des partenaires, des gouvernements et de l’ensemble du secteur caritatif. Le ou laPDG est responsable de la pérennité à long terme de l’organisation, notamment de sa santé financière, du développement de ses programmes, de l’augmentation du nombre de membres et de l’intendance de ses ressources. À la tête d’une équipe de 11 personnes travaillant principalement à distance, le ou laPDG favorise une culture fondée sur la confiance, la collaboration et un dialogue respectueux et constructif, et soutient les membres de son équipe dans leur rôle d’ambassadeurs de la mission. Le ou laPDG occupe également le poste de directeur général ou directrice générale de la Fondation de l’ACPDP dans le cadre d’une entente de services; à ce titre, cette personne supervise l’élaboration du calendrier de travaux et du budget annuels de la Fondation, veille au respect des obligations légales et réglementaires, et apporte son soutien aux activités de collecte de fonds et de gestion des relations avec les donateurs.

Les personnes présentant leur candidature doivent avoir une expérience avérée à des postes de haute direction dans le secteur à but non lucratif, de préférence au sein d’un organisme national comptant des membres affiliés. Dans vos fonctions de cadre supérieur chevronné, vous maîtrisez les meilleures pratiques en matière de gouvernance et, dans l’idéal, vous avez déjà travaillé auprès du conseil d’administration d’un organisme de bienfaisance. Vous possédez de solides compétences financières, notamment une expérience dans l’élaboration et la gestion de budgets, l’établissement de prévisions et la gestion des risques organisationnels, ainsi qu’une connaissance pratique approfondie des exigences fédérales et provinciales régissant les organismes de bienfaisance enregistrés, y compris ceux de l’Agence du revenu du Canada. Vous aimez motiver, faire progresser et fidéliser une équipe à distance très impliquée, passionnée et animée par une mission. Vos collègues saluent votre expérience avérée dans le développement de relations avec les donateurs, votre capacité à établir et à entretenir des liens solides avec les organisations du secteur concerné et le gouvernement fédéral, ainsi que votre sens du service envers les membres et les chapitres affiliés. Votre expérience en communication comprend une aisance à prendre la parole en public pour renforcer la notoriété de la marque, la visibilité de l’organisation et les meilleures pratiques du secteur de la bienfaisance et à but non lucratif, ainsi que des réalisations comme porte‑parole d’une organisation. Vous adhérez à des valeurs qui correspondent à l’engagement de l’ACPDP à favoriser et à intégrer la diversité, l’équité et l’inclusion dans l’ensemble de ses activités. Étant donné que l’ACPDP sert des membres de partout au Canada, la maîtrise du français et de l’anglais est considérée comme un atout majeur.

Lieu de travail / télétravail:

L’ACPDP propose un environnement privilégiant le télétravail. Compte tenu de la mission de l’organisation, les personnes candidates doivent néanmoins résider à proximité d’un aéroport national et seront amenées à voyager régulièrement.

Fourchette salariale et rémunération globale:

de150000à170000$, en fonction de l’expérience. La rémunération globale comprend un ensemble d’avantages sociaux à la charge de l’employeur, une cotisation équivalente auREER, un fonds de formation professionnelle et des congés payés.

Utilisation de l’IA:

Griffith Group Executive Search n’utilise pas l’intelligence artificielle pour présélectionner, évaluer ou sélectionner les candidatures à un poste.

Motif de l’offre d’emploi:

Il s’agit d’un poste à pourvoir prochainement en raison d’un départ à la retraite.

ACPDP accepte et encourage les candidatures de toutes les personnes qualifiées, notamment les femmes, les personnes autochtones, les personnes issues de minorités ethniques, les personnes en situation de handicap et les personnes de toutes orientations sexuelles ou identités de genre.

On encourage toutes les personnes qualifiées à poser leur candidature. Toutefois, la priorité sera accordée à celles légalement autorisées à travailler au Canada.
