Job description

Credit Union National Benefits (CUNB) empowers organizations within the cooperative community to support the health and well-being of their employees through a best-in-class group benefits program. Since 1973, CUNB has been dedicated to delivering comprehensive, high-value employee benefits solutions tailored specifically to the needs of cooperative organizations across Canada. Their programs offer a full spectrum of coverage, including health, dental, disability, life, and critical illness insurance, complemented by additional services such as Employee Assistance Programs and telemedicine support. As the credit union landscape continues to evolve, so does CUNB—continuously adapting its model to maximize value for existing plan participants while strategically positioning for growth. Expanding reach and leveraging economies of scale remain central priorities as CUNB looks to the future.

CUNB is looking for its next—and first full-time—Executive Director. Reporting to the Board of Directors (the Board), the Executive Director is responsible for managing all operational functions of CUNB. This includes strategic planning, financial management, business development, strategic growth, oversight of service partner relationships, and initiatives to enhance organizational awareness and visibility. The Executive Director will provide essential support and resourcing to the Board.

A strong commitment to the principles of the Plan, along with the highest standards of integrity and dedication, is critical to success in this role. Serving as the visible and vital communication link between the Board and CUNB members, the Executive Director will play a key leadership role in shaping the organization’s future. The position has been refined to align with a more growth-focused mandate, placing a greater emphasis on relationship management and business development.

The ideal candidate is a resourceful, strategic and self-directed professional who enjoys both a hands-on and strategic role. The preferred background includes experience in financial services, ideally insured benefit programs, board governance, client relationship management, and business development. Experience working with credit unions, other cooperative systems, or financial services organizations is preferred. Relevant experience may include leadership roles in human resources, benefits or insurance consulting, senior positions in related associations, financial services sales, or similar areas.

This is a rare opportunity to shape the future growth and overarching impact of CUNB while building strong relationships across the credit union system.

This position works virtually from anywhere in Canada and requires occasional travel throughout the country.
