Job description

Broken Arrow Youth Ranch (BAYR) is a small charitable organization located in the gorgeous hills of Wood Mountain, Saskatchewan, near the Grasslands National Park. BAYR works toward helping struggling families heal and grow. The family of believers that make up BAYR receive children under the age of 18 from these families come and live on the ranch for a minimum of one year. As the staff pour love and hope into the lives of these children, they also work with their parents and families to network them with resources to help them grow towards healthy reunification. The website for the organization is www.solidrockministries.ca for more information. We have seen success with several families reuniting, and young adults moving into healthy and prosperous lives within their communities.

We are searching for an Executive Director for the ministry. The successful candidate will be a leader who is ready to help shape the next chapter of the organization’s mission and impact. The Executive Director will be thoroughly committed to BAYR’s mission. All candidates should have proven leadership, coaching, and relationship management experience.

If you believe in keeping children from a path of destructive actions, and have the leadership skills to bring people together across seemingly insurmountable differences, we are looking to hear from you.

We need an Executive Director who can work closely with the BAYR Board of Directors. the Director of Fundraising and Public Relations, and the staff to oversee the next steps of growth for the organization to meet the ever-increasing needs of children and families in western Canada. The successful candidate will help BAYR move forward to serve more struggling children and families with promotion of the ministry, oversight and hiring of staff as required, and wise utilization of human, financial, livestock and property resources.

We are looking for someone who can maintain stability within our organization, hire the right staff, and lead us through increasing our services to aid more children and families who are hurting.

The expected salary range for this position is $37,000 to $44,400 annually.
