Description

The Moran Company [https://morancompany.com/] is pleased to partner with the Kailee Mills Foundation to recruit the organization's next Executive Director.

The Kailee Mills Foundation [https://www.kaileemillsfoundation.org/] is seeking a high-caliber, experienced, and visionary leader with a growth mindset to guide the organization in its mission to reduce fatality and injury from non-seat belt use. This leader will be responsible for expanding its multi-focused programs of awareness, education, and community involvement to a national scale.

The Kailee Mills Foundation was established in 2017 in response to the tragic death of 16-year-old Kailee Mills. Kailee was killed from being ejected from a vehicle after momentarily removing her seat belt to take a selfie. The foundation experienced rapid financial expansion in its early years and is approaching a $1.7 million budget. It now seeks to grow its funding and expand the reach of its programs and impact to a regional and national level.

The foundation's primary mission is the promotion of seat belt safety, specifically directed toward reducing fatalities and injuries resulting from non-seat belt use, particularly among teens. It also offers financial and emotional support to families experiencing hardship from accidents similar to Kailee's. It's vision is a future free from preventable tragedies, where families are whole and lives are saved through seat belt safety.

The Executive Director's role demands a high level of executive skills and a combination of executive competencies. The leader must not only excel in public safety advocacy, fund development, and educational outreach management but also oversee a sensitive direct social service and grant-making portfolio (KaileeCares).

It is anticipated that the Executive Director's time will include 20% travel outside of the local area for advocacy, donor relations, fundraising, and capacity building.

Qualified applicants will have a Bachelor's degree, a minimum of five to seven years of senior-level management experience, the ability to succeed in a rapidly evolving organization, and a belief in and passion for the mission of the Kailee Mills Foundation and the ability to effectively communicate the mission to a variety of audiences

The salary for this position is in the range of $120,000. The final salary will be determined based on the background and experience of the selected candidate. The foundation offers a benefits package that includes healthcare, 10 days PTO, sick leave and 8 paid holidays.
