Job Description

The Moran Company is pleased to partner with the Community Foundation of West Kentucky to recruit the organization's next Executive Director.

The Community Foundation of West Kentucky (CFWK) is a philanthropic organization dedicated to improving the quality of life in Western Kentucky by connecting donors with meaningful charitable opportunities. CFWK awards several million dollars in grants each year to support nearly all areas of the nonprofit sector, including housing, food security, education, health, employment, historic preservation, arts and culture, disaster recovery, and more.

Located in Paducah, CFWK employs four staff and is governed by a Board of Directors that includes 15 dedicated community volunteers. Paducah is a charming city with a rich cultural heritage, a vibrant arts scene, and a strong sense of community. The city’s historic Lower Town Arts District is a thriving hub for creatives, featuring beautifully restored 19th-century buildings, art galleries, and local studios.

Paducah is also known for its welcoming, small-town feel paired with a surprisingly cosmopolitan touch—thanks in part to its designation as a UNESCO Creative City for its dedication to fostering creativity and innovation. CFWK plays a crucial role in supporting local initiatives and promoting a high quality of life. The Executive Director of CFWK is a key civic leader in Paducah.

CFWK is seeking a dynamic leader to serve as its next Executive Director. This position requires a passionate and strategic individual who can provide effective leadership, continue to grow the Foundation’s donor pipeline, and increase the organization’s grantmaking.

This position requires a Bachelor’s degree; advanced degree preferred. The ideal candidate will have a passion for philanthropy as a vehicle to strengthen the community, demonstrated success in managing staff, and will be capable of communicating with a wide range of audiences.

The annual salary range for this position is $125,000 - $150,000. CFWK will also offer a health insurance stipend and contributions to a retirement plan.

The search for the CFWK Executive Director is being conducted by The Moran Company. Questions about the position can be directed to Mike English, The Moran Company; mike (at) morancompany.com.

To apply for this position, submit cover letter and resume to Mike English, The Moran Company, via the secure online portal.
