The Company

The community follows the principles of anthroposophy, the organization promotes dignity, purpose, and connection through community living, participatory decision-making, and holistic approaches to aging. Through its commitment to resident well-being, shared leadership, and long-term sustainability, Hesperus Village strives to cultivate a thriving community where individuals can continue to contribute, grow, and live with purpose.

The Role

Reporting to the Board of Directors, the Executive Director is responsible for the overall leadership, management, and operation of Hesperus Village. The Executive Director ensures the organization fulfills its mission and strategic objectives while operating in alignment with its values, policies, and governance framework.

As the organization's senior leader, the Executive Director provides strategic advice to the Board, oversees financial and operational performance, nurtures a healthy organizational culture, and serves as a key ambassador to residents, families, partners, volunteers, funders, and the broader community. The Executive Director also plays a central role in supporting Hesperus Village's sociocratic governance model, fostering participatory decision-making and collaboration across the organization.

Key Areas of Leadership and Oversight

Strategic and Organizational Leadership: Works closely with the Board of Directors to develop and implement strategic and operational plans, identify emerging opportunities and risks, establish organizational priorities, and ensure alignment with Hesperus Village's mission, vision, values, and long-term sustainability objectives.
Governance and Sociocratic Leadership: Serves as an active participant within the General Circle, supporting effective communication and alignment between governance and operational circles while embedding sociocratic principles, consent-based decision-making, shared accountability, and decentralized leadership throughout the organization.

Financial and Operational Stewardship: Oversees financial planning, budgeting, revenue generation, facilities management, risk management, compliance, and organizational performance to ensure the long-term health, sustainability, and effectiveness of the organization and its programs.
Community and Stakeholder Engagement: Builds and maintains productive relationships with residents, families, community partners, government stakeholders, donors, and sector representatives while advancing awareness, advocacy, partnership development, and fundraising efforts in support of the organization's mission.

The Ideal Candidate

Hesperus Village seeks a thoughtful, collaborative, and purpose-driven leader who brings both strategic capability and a genuine commitment to community-centered work. The successful candidate will be comfortable operating within a participatory governance environment and will appreciate the balance between organizational stewardship, relationship building, and mission advancement.

They will possess the ability to navigate complexity with sound judgment, engage diverse stakeholders with authenticity and respect, and lead through influence and collaboration. An appreciation for anthroposophical principles and a commitment to fostering meaningful community participation will be important differentiators.
