District Operations Manager Job description
We are looking for a self-starting, motivated person who excels at building relationships and enjoys sales and marketing. This is an exciting career opportunity that is challenging and demands growth in the areas of fundraising, membership development, and volunteer recruitment.
Scouting Executives are a diverse group, sharing a dynamic career offering independence, achievement, and stability. The executive is the manager of the Scouting non-profit in a designated district in the Northern Lights Council. Must be willing to live in Williston, ND. We are looking for someone to take ownership of growing the district in the key areas of finance, membership, and volunteer development – this is not a clock-in clock-out type of job and involves seasonal travel within the district.
