Founded 85 years ago in Kansas City, Children International today operates in 10 countries around the world and is a leading $100 million nonprofit humanitarian organization with a mission to eradicate poverty.
If you are an exceptional and experienced business leader ready to make a difference, multiply good in the world and help change the course of history, we want to meet you.
As Vice President of Global Finance, you report to the COO in our Kansas City international headquarters office and are a sought-after thought partner to our Fundraising and Global Programs teams. You play a critical role in the development and implementation of strategies and processes that help achieve ambitious, tangible results. Your skill at engaging other leaders and teams in big thinking and bringing rigorous discipline to financial decision-making will contribute to improved organizational performance around the world.
At CI, we believe the way to end poverty begins with children. Without help, children in poverty become adults in poverty. Our vision is to bring people together to end generational poverty through programs focused on health, education, empowerment through life skills and, ultimately, employment. A unique, long-term, customized approach, this allows us to stay with our children for the first two decades of their lives. We’re in it for the long haul because we know that the 200,000 children we support around the world deserve a fighting chance.
As Vice President of Global Finance, you join a team of mission-driven employees and volunteers in an organization known for evolving and transforming to meet the needs of the children and families we serve. As we adapt to provide a wider range of more impactful programs, we are also diversifying our fundraising from a primarily one-to-one sponsorship model to an approach designed to generate additional funding. As the new global financial leader, you help hone financial practices around the world, and in doing so, support our teams in delivering greater impact.
A skilled collaborator, you build trusting relationships and are able to influence key internal and external partners. You are responsible for financial strategic planning, financial analysis, budgeting and reporting, risk management, investment portfolio management, currency exchange management and internal auditing. Your leadership, drive, financial expertise and partnership-building skills take our financial planning and analysis practices to new heights. As an extraordinary thought leader, people leader and a savvy businessperson, you are a passionate advocate for children and an ethical owner of our cause.
As Vice President of Global Finance, you are critical to the future of Children International and ready to step up to a rewarding challenge. Your greatest intrinsic reward will be in the eyes of the youth who graduate from our program, equipped and empowered to be positive agents of change in their communities.
