As Chautauqua Institution (Chautauqua) approaches its sesquicentennial in 2024 and undertakes an exciting and transformational new strategic plan, the organization seeks a strategic and experienced financial leader to serve as its Chief Financial Officer (CFO). As a member of the President’s Executive Team, reporting to the Executive Vice President, the CFO will oversee a budget of $45 million and a team of three and serve as a key architect of strategic financial planning and management in the furtherance of Chautauqua’s mission, vision, and financial health.

A truly unique and dynamic institution, Chautauqua is a not-for-profit global convener of dialogue on the most significant issues of the day through engagement across four pillars - the arts, education, religion, and recreation. Chautauqua Institution is located on the shores of Chautauqua Lake in Southwestern New York State and comes alive each summer with a unique mix of visual and performing arts, lectures, interfaith worship/programs, and recreational activities.

In 2019 the Institution passed a strategic plan, 150 Forward , that endeavors to expand its reach to year-round programming and to harness its brand for continuous impact. In 2020, as a major step forward in that effort, the Institution launched engaging online programming with lectures and performances year-round, offering participants the opportunity to engage in community and learning both on- and off-season.

The CFO will play a critical role as a member of the President’s Executive Team, advising Chautauqua leadership and leading initiatives that will ensure the Chautauqua community’s long-term financial sustainability at a moment of exciting organizational transformation. The successful CFO will have significant experience as a senior leader in a finance and accounting environment, with preference given to candidates who have led all financial planning and analysis functions, including annual operating budget, capital budget, strategic financial planning, and resource allocation/controls processes.

In addition to excellent financial planning and analysis skills, the CFO must be a strong relationship builder and possess the ability to communicate effectively with all levels and across all divisions in the organization. The successful candidate will have an appreciation of the mission-driven aspect of a nonprofit organization, experience in planning and implementing the financial transformation of an institution, possess a unique combination of analytical ability, effective speaking and writing skills, and a genuine interest in the life of the mind and maximizing human potential.

This is a permanent, full-time position with a starting salary range of $150,000-$180,000. This position will be based ideally in Chautauqua Institution’s home office in Southwestern New York State or its Washington, DC office. However, Chautauqua is open to discussions around a remote or hybrid working arrangement.

Chautauqua has retained Isaacson, Miller, a national executive search firm, to assist in the identification and selection of this new leader. All inquiries, applications, and nominations for this opportunity should be directed to:
