Jobbeschreibung

The best healthcare model in the world still has a hole in it. Medicaid covers a lot. Itdoesn'tcover everyone.There'sa population that falls through every gap — uninsured, underinsured, invisible to the system — that still walks through our doors with a torn ACL, a shattered wrist, a spinethat'sbeen quietly failing them for years. They need care. They deserve it. And right now, the infrastructure to fully fund itdoesn'texist.

That'sthe job.

The Genesis Health Foundation is the philanthropic engine behind Genesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine — one of Chicagoland's fastest-growing, most mission-driven MSK platforms.We're16 clinics deep, running clinical trials, serving Medicaid populations at scale, and proving every day that excellent care and accessible care are the same thing. The Foundation exists to close the last gap:ensuring that patients with no coverage, no safety net, and no other options still receive world-class orthopedic care.

We need an Executive Director to build the institution that makes that possible.

The Role

This is afounding-energyleadership position.The Foundation has the right mission, the right clinical partner, and the right story.What it needs is an operator who can turn that into a fundraising machine, a community institution, and a durable source of capital for indigent care.

You'llown everything: strategy, donor development, institutional partnerships, board management, grant operations, community presence, and the organizational infrastructure to support it all.You'llwork in close partnership with the Genesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine leadership team — withdirectline of sight into the clinical impact your work is funding.

When you raise a dollar,you'llknow exactly where it goes.

What You'll Drive

• Major gifts and individual donor strategy:identifying, cultivating, and closing relationships with high-net-worth donors who are aligned with the mission

• Institutional partnerships:foundations, health systems, corporate sponsors, and civic organizations across Chicago and beyond

• Grant development and management:building andmaintaininga diversified portfolio of public and private grant funding

• Board development:recruiting, activating, and stewarding a board that opens doors and brings resources

• Indigent care fund:designing and managing the financial mechanism that gets uninsured patients the care they need, with zero friction

• Brand and storytelling:turning Genesis's clinicaltrack recordinto compelling narratives that move donors to act

• Organizational infrastructure— building the team, systems, and processes tooperatea high-performance nonprofit

Who We're Looking For

You'vedone this before. You know how to build a donor pipeline, close a major gift, and manage a boardthat'sgenuinely useful. But beyond the craft of fundraising,you'remotivated by something specific: the belief that access to care is a solvable problem, and that the solution requires both excellent clinical infrastructureandthe financial architecture to back it up.

Youreabuilder, not a caretaker.You want to create something, notmaintainsomething.

You understand both worlds.You can sit across from a major donor at a fundraising dinner andwalka clinic floor the next morning — and you know why bothmatter.

Youlead withthe mission, closewiththe data.Genesis has outcomes. It has patient stories. It has a model that works. You know how to translate all of that into a case for investment that sophisticated donors find compelling and irresistible.

You'reChicago-rooted or Chicago-ready.This city's philanthropic and civic ecosystem istheplaying field. Knowing it — or being hungry to learn it — is essential.

The Opportunity

• Competitive nonprofit executive compensation

• Direct partnership with the Genesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine leadership team

• Real, measurable clinical impact — every dollar funds care for a specific patient population

• Ground-floor opportunity to build a foundation with significant long-term potential
