Program Director
Matthew63, Naperville, Illinois, United States, 60564
KEES has been exclusively retained by Matthew63 in its search for a
Program Director
.
Matthew63 seeks a strategically minded Program Director with exceptional program management skills, capable of overseeing and evaluating grant-making initiatives to ensure alignment with the mission. Reporting to a Senior Program Director, the Program Director will work closely with the administrative staff, professional advisors, and trustees on all phases of program development and grantmaking.
This new Program Director will be introduced to all levels of Matthew63’s grantmaking and be invited to contribute new ideas and engage at each level. The successful candidate will bring a strong business acumen and an energetic, autonomous work style to thrive in a small “start-up” like environment. An implementer and executor, the Program Director will be able to work within the details to create grantmaking and reporting processes.
The Program Director will cycle in new grant partners and exit others upon project goal achievement. Management of grantee partnerships will involve regular virtual meetings and occasional site visits.

Some specific requirements include:
Passion to serve the poorest of the poor and a deep understanding of the challenges faced by vulnerable populations.
Strong understanding and alignment of personal principles to Catholic Social Teaching.
Ability to and interest in travel (mostly international), visiting grantees/program sites on approximately 3-5 visits per year. Travel is anticipated at 6-10 weeks annually, scheduled at mutual convenience of the staff, grantees, and Matthew63 leadership.
Emotional intelligence and interpersonal skills necessary to build cross-cultural relationships with multiple stakeholders.
Career track record showing stability with an organization and capacity to develop and nurture relationships culminating in overall success and a track record of increasing responsibilities in a nonprofit, NGO or Foundation; Matthew63 desires to see 3+ years of longevity in past roles.
Proven track record of managing international programs and partnerships.
A minimum of 5 years of progressive experience in managing an impact-oriented program portfolio (grant making, impact investment, venture philanthropy, NGO, corporate foundation, etc.) preferred.
Bachelor’s degree required; Master’s degree in a relevant field (e.g., Nonprofit Management, International Development, Public Administration) preferred.
Compensation for this role has been recently benchmarked and is expected to be in the range of $145,000 – $155,000, commensurate with experience, with strong benefits. This is a virtual position and office setup/equipment will be provided. Dedicated office space is required.
