Description
The Jewish Federation of Victoria & Vancouver Island (JFVVI) is the central convening, philanthropic, and community-building organization for a vibrant Jewish community of approximately 6,000 people within a metropolitan area of roughly 500,000 residents.
Through a new strategic alliance with the Jewish Federation of British Columbia (JFBC), which serves the larger province and provides framework infrastructure, supervision, staff support, and extensive strategic guidance to JFVVI, JFVVI raises and stewards communal resources, makes strategic grants to local and global partners, organizes events and programs, builds relationships across the Jewish and broader civic landscape, and develops the next generation of donors and volunteer leaders. JFVVI is proudly pluralistic, serving Jews of every background, affiliation, age, family structure, and expression of Jewish identity — and partners with synagogues, agencies, and institutions across the full breadth of the community.
JFVVI seeks an inspiring, entrepreneurial, and relationship-driven Executive Director to serve as JFVVI’s lead strategist, fundraiser, and ambassador. Reporting to the JFBC Chief Planning Officer and directed and advised by the JFVVI Board President on local matters, the Executive Director will lead a small, high-performing professional team and partner with lay leadership to articulate a compelling vision, strengthen JFVVI’s philanthropic engine, deepen community engagement, and ensure that communal resources events and programs are stewarded with strategic discipline and measurable impact.
