L’OCCASION

Le Musée canadien pour les droits de la personne est le seul musée du monde exclusivement consacré à l’étude des droits de la personne et à l’éducation relative à ces droits.

Le Musée a été construit grâce au soutien de donateurs, de donatrices et de philanthropes de partout au pays, et ce, par l’entremise de son organe de collecte de fonds, les Amis du Musée canadien pour les droits de la personne. Les Amis du Musée ont supervisé la campagne de fonds de capitaux destinés à l’établissement du Musée. Maintenant que celui‑ci est ouvert et fonctionnel, nous en arrivons à une étape cruciale, soit le passage de la mobilisation de fonds au soutien continu des programmes et des expositions du Musée, ainsi que de ses projets d’immobilisations futurs.

Nous sommes donc à la recherche d’un nouveau directeur général ou d’une nouvelle directrice générale pour prendre la tête des activités de collecte de fonds du Musée et des Amis du Musée afin de les élargir à l’échelle nationale et internationale et de trouver de nouveaux partenaires commanditaires. Il ou elle se chargera d’élaborer et de mettre en œuvre un plan et une stratégie qui assureront la mise en place d’un vaste dispositif de stratégies et de programmes de collecte de fonds (y compris les dons majeurs et planifiés, les fondations, les commandites, le soutien aux programmes éducatifs et la philanthropie Web) qui garantira notre succès.

En qualité d’intermédiaire entre le Musée et les Amis du Musée, le directeur général ou la directrice générale des Amis du Musée relèvera du président‑directeur général du Musée et aura un rapport transversal avec l’illustre et dynamique conseil d’administration des Amis du Musée. Le ou la titulaire intégrera en outre l’équipe de la haute direction. Il ou elle travaillera en étroite collaboration avec ses pairs du Musée dans les aspects liés à l’expérience des visiteurs, aux expositions et à la conception, aux affaires publiques et à la programmation, au marketing et à l’administration.

Il s’agit d’une possibilité de carrière rare et unique en son genre pour un chef de file avisé et astucieux du secteur de la collecte de fonds ayant dix ans d’expérience globale en collecte de fonds couvrant idéalement les dons majeurs, les commandites et les programmes de dons annuels, et cinq ans de leadership stratégique et novateur à réunir des groupes divers formés de membres du personnel et de bénévoles afin d’atteindre et de dépasser les objectifs fixés. Nous sommes à la recherche d’une personne dynamique et audacieuse en mesure de jouer un rôle essentiel pour favoriser l’essor de ce musée national voué à l’exploration des droits de la personne. Les éléments susceptibles de garantir notre réussite sont déjà en place, et le ou la titulaire du poste s’appuiera sur ces réalisations remarquables pour continuer d’entretenir d’importantes relations avec les donateurs, les donatrices et les bénévoles, et pour en nouer de nouvelles et les faire fructifier.

Chief Executive Officer

THE OPPORTUNITY

The Canadian Museum for Human Rights is the only Museum in the world solely dedicated to the study and education of human rights. Located in Winnipeg, Manitoba, this incredible, award-winning space is the first national museum to be built in nearly half a century, and the first outside the National Capital Region. 

The museum was built with the support of donors and philanthropists from around the country through the Museum’s fundraising arm, the Friends of the Canadian Museum for Human Rights. Friends oversaw the capital campaign to help establish the Museum. Now that the Museum is up and running, we are at a crucial stage in our development as we evolve from a capital campaign to ongoing support of Museum programs, exhibitions, and future capital projects.

We therefore seek a new Chief Executive Officer to lead fundraising activities for the Museum and Friends to further expand our fundraising activities nationally and internationally and to grow sponsorship partners. The CEO of Friends will develop and execute a plan and fundraising strategy to ensure that a comprehensive and strategic mix of fundraising strategies and programs (including major gifts, planned giving, endowments, sponsorship, and educational program support to e-philanthropy) is in place to ensure success.

As the conduit between the Museum and Friends, the CEO of Friends will report directly to the President and CEO of the Museum with a reporting relationship to the active and illustrious Board of Friends. The new incumbent will also function as a member of the Museum’s senior executive team. The CEO will work closely with Museum peers in visitor experience, exhibitions and design, public affairs, programs, marketing, and administration.  

This is a rare and unique career opportunity for a sophisticated and savvy fundraising leader with 10 years of broad-based fundraising experience, ideally including major gifts, sponsorship, and annual giving programs and 5 years of strategic and creative leadership bringing together diverse groups of staff and volunteers to achieve and exceed goals. We seek a dynamic and entrepreneurial individual to play a pivotal role in the growth and development of this national Museum dedicated to the exploration of human rights. The platform for success has been established and the new CEO will build on these impressive accomplishments, continuing to steward important relationships with donors and volunteers, and developing and stewarding new relationships.
