Executive Director, Winston-Salem

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay (if present). Also maybe "Position Details" but not required heading; we can embed details in prose or maybe not needed. The instructions: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

  or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We have content: About the Role (description). Position Details (full-time hybrid, location, start date). Job Responsibilities (list). Requirements (experience/background required, plus values etc). Compensation & Benefits (salary range, benefits). Also there is a "Heart’s Core Values" and "Commitment to Inclusion" which are part of requirements? Could be part of Requirements or separate but we can include under Requirements as prose. We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. The posting includes a long EEO statement; we should remove that. Also "Visit www.heartmathtutoring.org for more information." maybe not needed but could be considered minor metadata; we can drop. We need to output only HTML fragment. We'll create sections:

  About the role

  with paragraph(s) summarizing the description.

  Responsibilities

  with
  • each bullet from Job Responsibilities.

    Requirements

    with
    • for required experience/background, plus maybe core values as prose? The instruction: Use
      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should list requirements as list items. The core values could be prose (

        ) but they are not a list; we could include them as a paragraph after the list.

        Benefits

        with
        • for benefits listed.

          Pay

          with paragraph stating salary range. We should not include Schedule section because not explicitly stated (though hybrid schedule mentioned but not as schedule details). The posting mentions "flexible, hybrid schedule" under benefits; we could include that in benefits list. We must not include placeholder text like "commensurate with experience" in Pay section? The instruction: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. The posting states salary range: $85-100K, commensurate with experience. That's specific enough; we can include that. The phrase "commensurate with experience" is part of the sentence but not filler; it's okay. We must not include duplicated lines. Let's extract details. About the Role paragraph: The Executive Director (ED) will demonstrate strategic thinking, proven relationship-building skills, fundraising success, and passion for Heart's mission. The ED holds primary responsibility for Heart Winston-Salem's revenue through the solicitation of philanthropy (major gifts, individual donors, corporate and foundation support, planned giving, and special events), school district contracts, and regional partnerships. They are responsible for all aspects of local fundraising and will lead in forging new relationships to build visibility, impact, volunteerism, and financial resources. Based in or near Winston-Salem, the ED reports to Heart's Executive Director of National Partnerships, based in North Carolina. The Winston-Salem ED is supported by several national team members, including a grant writer, donor relations manager (focused on gift processing and database management), and senior staff working on national fundraising, as well as a Winston-Salem-based Advisory Board. The ED partners closely with the VP of Programs and Winston-Salem Program Manager, coordinating on a dotted-line basis to ensure program quality and advance overall program goals. The ED leads Heart’s growth and presence in Winston-Salem but is not responsible for day-to-day program operations, finance, or human resources – those are led by the program team with central-office support. We can put that as one or two paragraphs. Position Details: This is a full-time, hybrid position based in or near Winston-Salem, NC. The role combines remote work with regular, in-person presence in the Winston-Salem community, at schools, partner and donor meetings, and community events. Some evening and weekend work is expected. Anticipated start date: January 2027. We could incorporate this into About the role or as a separate short paragraph maybe not needed as a section. Since we have no heading for Position Details, we can fold into About the role paragraph. Responsibilities list: Let's extract each bullet. From "Job Responsibilities: Key responsibilities are listed below." - Revenue Generation and Pipeline Growth - Secure financial resources in Winston-Salem, NC, developing relationships and making asks that lead to philanthropic support of Heart’s program. - Generate and maintain a robust pipeline of organizations, foundations, and individuals to sustain the local budget of ~$390K and grow to add additional school footprint. - Development Strategy, Operations, and Reporting - Develop and manage a comprehensive development plan to include strategies for foundations, corporations, and individual donors to meet the ongoing financial needs of Heart in Winston-Salem including annual giving, major gifts, grants/institutional giving, planned giving, and special events. - Oversee all regional development activities including any capital campaigns, major gifts, special events, planned giving, prospect research, grant writing, donor cultivation, donor records, and other development efforts. - Partner with Heart's grant writer and donor relations manager (based in North Carolina) to submit tailored grant proposals and oversee accurate donor information for the region. - Monitor and report regularly on the progress of the development program across the market to the board and Executive Director of National Partnerships. - Liaise with program and finance team members to support fund development efforts. - Board Development - Liaise with the Advisory Board ensuring the group is effective in supporting local operations, especially focused on volunteer recruitment, fund development, and visibility in the community. This includes working closely with the board and committee chairs to develop reports and agendas and providing leadership, guidance, and relationship-building to leverage individual board members' strengths. - Identify, recruit, and develop local champions to serve on Advisory Board and respective committees. - External Affairs and Public Relations - Own and execute Heart's volunteer recruitment plan, using strong program management to leverage staff and board to successfully meet volunteer recruitment goals. Through personal contributions and harnessing efforts of teammates, recruit volunteer tutors to meet student need in Winston-Salem school sites. - Build partnerships and relationships that generate both funding and volunteer tutors. - Manage and strengthen Heart's partnership with the school district by serving as the primary liaison, advocating for program expansion, and ensuring alignment with district goals. - Remain informed on the education landscape and critical issues that impact Heart's program and stakeholders, including students and schools. - Oversee regional communications to build awareness, engage key stakeholders, and enhance Heart's visibility and impact. - Represent Heart through formal and informal opportunities within the community and beyond. - Engage in statewide partnerships and government relations as appropriate. - Elevate depth of engagement with key partners, raise Heart's brand awareness by representing Heart in the Winston-Salem community, regularly attending community events and building relationships that support Heart's mission. - Local Leadership and Strategy - Set the local strategy and tone for Heart in Winston-Salem, defining strategic focus areas and an annual plan in partnership with the Advisory Board, building the organization's reputation in the community, and shaping a positive local culture. - Collaborate with the local program leader and program leaders org-wide to keep Winston-Salem's strategy up-to-date, staying current on strategies for continuous improvement. - Establish and maintain collaborative working relationships with all Heart leaders and staff across regions. - Proactively and responsibly use available resources to drive process improvement and quality, including technology, AI tools, and volunteer or pro bono support. - Assume related responsibilities and perform other duties as assigned. We'll turn each top-level bullet into
        • maybe with sub-bullets? The instruction: Use
          • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. It doesn't forbid nested lists but we can keep simple: each responsibility as a list item, maybe combine subpoints into same item separated by semicolons. But to preserve ALL substantive information, we should not lose detail. Could use nested
            inside
            • . That's still a list. Probably acceptable. We'll produce:
              • Revenue Generation and Pipeline Growth
                • Secure financial resources in Winston-Salem, NC, developing relationships and making asks that lead to philanthropic support of Heart’s program.
                • Generate and maintain a robust pipeline of organizations, foundations, and individuals to sustain the local budget of ~$390K and grow to add additional school footprint.
              ... etc. Similarly for Requirements. Requirements: Experience/Background Required list: - Personal commitment to and passion for Heart’s mission and values. - A track record of fundraising success in Winston-Salem – securing gifts from individuals, corporations, and foundations with the ability to leverage established relationships and community knowledge to advance revenue goals. - Experience building and implementing an annual strategic development plan. - Excellent written and verbal communication. - A self-starter who takes initiative, works independently, and manages multiple priorities and projects at once. - Proven leadership experience in partnering with boards and/or committees, with strong communication skills. - Proven ability to work collaboratively within an organization; a team-oriented style that is honest, respectful, direct, as well as collegial. - If you are excited about this role and believe you could contribute, but your experience does not line up perfectly with everything above, we still encourage you to apply. (This is encouragement, not a requirement; we could keep as prose.) Preferred Experience: (we could include as list under Requirements maybe as "Preferred" but not required; but we can include as list items under Requirements with note "Preferred". However instruction: Use
              • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can list required and preferred separately maybe as subheadings? But we cannot add extra headings not in list (like "Preferred Experience") unless we treat as part of list? Might be okay to include as list items with a note. But we also have Heart’s Core Values and Commitment to Inclusion; these are not requirements per se but could be included as prose under Requirements. We'll produce:
