Job Description
With an unemployment rate of approximately 70% among people who are blind in the U.S., Beyond Vision’s mission is to create meaningful employment opportunities, demonstrating the untapped potential within the community of people who are blind or visually impaired and serving as a leader in manufacturing and other services. Beyond Vision is a 501(c)(3) self-funded, not-for-profit entity currently employing 107 people with the mission to enrich the lives of people who are blind through the dignity of work valued by customers and the community.
After nearly two decades of growth, Beyond Vision is in a healthy financial position with the ability to continue to serve the community as a person-first employer, keeping visually impaired employees at the forefront. The organization is looking for its next leader to grow the manufacturing and services business lines through strategy-driven revenue diversification. Currently, revenues are heavily dependent on government contracts which can present challenges amidst federal programming uncertainty. The next President & CEO of Beyond Vision will leverage ongoing strengths and opportunities through growth of services and products while increasing employment for people who are blind or visually impaired.
The upcoming leader of Beyond Vision will have the opportunity to prioritize a highly sustainable future through growth and diversification of products and services; continuous improvement of infrastructure; development of staff, many of whom are long-tenured, blind and sighted, devoted employees; investment in marketing and sales; stewardship of critical relationships; and advancing a compelling vision for the near and long-term future.
Reporting to the Board of Directors, the President and CEO will provide strategic, visionary leadership to grow and strengthen the organization. The President and CEO will translate strategic priorities into impactful programs and revenue-generating initiatives, all while serving as the organization’s ambassador to diverse stakeholders. The President and CEO will provide general management of organizational resources and personnel, and ensure the effective deployment of financial, social, and political capital. He/She will align Board members, stakeholders, organizational values, aspirations, and programs/services with Beyond Vision’s mission and vision .
The base salary range for this position is anticipated to be between $210,000 and $275,000 and will be commensurate with experience, along with bonus potential of up to 25% of base salary. Beyond Vision offers a comprehensive benefits package through participation in the Wisconsin state health care and Wisconsin Retirement System (WRS).
To apply, please submit a current resume and letter of introduction, as soon as possible, to Kittleman & Associates, LLC at (click the Apply button at the bottom of the page). For best consideration, kindly apply by April 30, 2024.
