Full time
The Colorado Health Foundation is pleased to announce the search for Chief Financial and Administrative Officer (CFAO), as our incumbent is retiring. Reporting to the CEO, the CFAO focuses on:
Serving as an executive member of the Foundation’s leadership team, as a key advisor to the CEO, Board and Foundation staff, and as an impassioned ambassador of the Foundation’s mission
Developing effective strategies and identifying opportunities to maximize organizational impact that directly support the mission of the Foundation
Providing effective stewardship of the Foundation’s resources through operational excellence and efficiency
Leading and managing functions responsible for investments, accounting, human resources, grantmaking operations, technology and facilities
Advising the Board, CEO and the leadership team of strategies related to risk management and identifying potential risks to the Foundation and its mission
The CFAO is a key member of the Foundation’s executive and leadership teams and integral to the effective functioning of our 15-person Board of Directors. The CFAO provides a strategic voice and valued perspective to the CEO, the Board, the leadership team, all staff members and external partners. We look to the CFAO as a strategic leader, mentor, functional expert and risk manager. Traditionally, the CFAO, in addition to daily responsibilities, has led strategic, long-term projects that affect the successful execution of our mission (e.g. new building design and construction, external partnerships, investment strategy changes, overseeing major operational advancements in technology and business processes).
The CFAO has management and mentoring responsibility for 24 staff through the following direct reporting relationships: Chief Investment Officer, Controller and Chief Compliance Officer, Senior Director of Grantmaking Operations, Senior Director of Human Resources and Senior Director of IT and Facilities. In addition, the CFAO is expected to serve as a senior Foundation ambassador connecting with others in Colorado and beyond including peers in other grantmaking organizations, leaders from civic, business, academic and professional contexts, and others with health or community interests that overlap those of the Foundation.

Advises the Board, leadership, and staff on financial opportunities and operational best practices.
Ensures fiduciary responsibility and compliance with financial, tax-exempt, and investment regulations.
Oversees budgeting, resource allocation, and financial reporting to support strategic objectives.
Keeps the Board informed of operational issues and organizational risks.
Ensures HR, grantmaking operations, IT, facilities, and investment practices encompass best practices in governance and risk management and align with the organization's mission and goals.
ORGANIZATIONAL CONTEXT
Our mission is to improve the health of Coloradans, and our work is guided by three cornerstones:
We serve Coloradans who have less power, privilege and income, and prioritize Coloradans of color who are disproportionately impacted by systemic and historic barriers that stand in the way of health and well-being.
We do everything with the intent of creating health equity
We are informed by the community and those we exist to serve
We seek candidates who are deeply committed to our mission and cornerstones, excel in navigating ambiguity and change, and proactively identify opportunities to drive our work forward while staying engaged in daily responsibilities. Ideal candidates will integrate our principles into all aspects of their work, applying strategic thinking, systems analysis, and an understanding of complexity, adaptive strategy, worldviews and power dynamics.
THE CANDIDATE
The ideal candidate to become CFAO will be an innovative leader with operational expertise and a commitment to effective management and leadership. We seek candidates who are highly regarded by peers and capable of leading best practices, not merely adopting them. The most compelling prospects will offer:
A genuine facility for alignment and integration, in both strategy and execution
A mentor committed to inspiring growth through guidance, wisdom, empowerment and support
An impatience with bureaucracy, balanced with appropriate regard for process
Truly superb communications skills, whether when one-on-one or in large gatherings
An inviting, collaborative spirit of grace and humility matched with a propensity for decisive action
A willingness to experiment
The cultural sensitivity, humility and competence to thrive in an exceedingly dynamic and demanding operating environment
An appetite for improvement and impact
Working knowledge of philanthropy and philanthropic leadership, with an unyielding focus on impact
Holds an innate sense of service in action, an unfailing commitment to excellence and the ability to help the Foundation as a "doing" culture
A manager who embraces real transparency in both internal operations and external dealings
A gifted leader for whom life-long learning is a natural talent, a source of joy and a model for colleagues
A confident leader accustomed to managing exceptionally committed teams
An impassioned leader who can call on complementary reserves of urgency, tenacity and patience
Mission obsessed and unapologetic in the focus on agreed-upon priorities with an impact-first mindset
Fearless in modeling a willingness to learn and challenge us to get better
Committed to influencing a work environment where everything – internally and externally – is in service of creating health equity
A colleague who is nimble, embraces ambiguity and understands when to ask and when to act
Adept in ways of engaging others in a common cause
An executive who will embrace visibility without ego
