District Executive

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.

District 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 within central North Carolina. 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. If you want to make a difference and are energetic, thoughtful, highly personable in nature, have a positive attitude, and value exceptional service, quality work, and personal relationships, this may be the career for you.

• Able to work varied hours when necessary to achieve positive objectives
• Believe in Scouting America’s mission and values and are willing to subscribe to its principles and standards
