Do you want to help change the lives of thousands of vulnerable children in BC?

The Vancouver Sun Children’s Fund (VSCF) is seeking an Interim Executive Director to provide full-time leadership during a key transition period. This is a unique opportunity to guide a small but high-impact charity that funds school meal programs, clothing, other essentials and support — helping kids arrive at school with dignity, ready to learn.

The Interim Executive Director role is anticipated to be in place for a period of approximately five (5) months, however, it will be considered indefinite and is not for any specific fixed-term or fixed-period. We intend on hiring a Permanent Executive Director who will replace the Interim Executive Director and, while outside candidates will be considered for the Permanent Executive Director position, we also expect to consider the Interim Executive Director for the role of Permanent Executive Director. We envision hiring an Interim Executive Director in the capacity of an employee, however, we are also willing to consider candidates who may prefer to assume the role of Interim Executive Director in the capacity of an independent contractor.
