    The BSA is a partnership between the Boston Society of Architects (BSA/AIA) and the BSA Foundation.

    The BSA operates as a convener, collaborator, educator, and action leader to ensure that the power of design is fully employed in creating solutions that address the equity and climate crises of our time.

    As a member-led association, the BSA/AIA is one of the oldest and largest chapters of the American Institute of Architects (AIA).

    Comprising world-renowned architects, designers, engineers, builders, and other industry professionals, it benefits from a committed membership who are some of the leading thinkers and innovators in professional practice today.

    The Foundation is a community nonprofit organization dedicated to improving lives through design for all in Greater Boston.

    The Executive Director will be a strategic thinker who will provide the energy and leadership necessary to ensure that the BSA continues to provide a dynamic public voice in design, civic life, and the role of design in society and culture.

    The Executive Director's knowledge of the intersection of architecture, advocacy, and community engagement will be critical in leading the organization with a deep passion for architecture, urbanism, and the built world.

    The Executive Director, in collaboration with the BSA Board President and the Foundation Board Chair, will be the public face of the organizations, key spokesperson, and instrument for educating the public about the importance of architecture and design.

    Reporting to the BSA Board President and the Foundation Board Chair, the Executive Director will oversee the staff, internal operations, and programs.

    Working closely with the Boards, the Executive Director will guide and motivate the staff and be a leader who will serve as an advocate for membership issues and BSA programs.

    A consensus builder, the Executive Director will be the primary link between the Boards and staff and the overall driver of the organization's mission.

    The Executive Director will be an enthusiastic fundraiser and advocate on behalf of the BSA with civic leaders, practitioners, academic institutions, the media, and the general public.

    Develop strategies to ensure the BSA has a long-range, cohesive plan to achieve member-focused goals pertaining to programming, education, events, and grantmaking that increase member value.

    Develop and maintain strong relationships with the BSA's members and constituents, particularly members that serve as leaders of the BSA's elected committees and knowledge communities (volunteer committees).

    Collaborate with the Boards through the promulgation of design excellence, advocacy, and continuing education.

    Play a critical role in expanding the BSA's funding base to best position the organization for long-term sustainability and impact.

    Actively pursue membership growth and engagement of leadership. Maintain the chapter's preeminent position within the AIA. Participate in AIA activities in Massachusetts and on regional and national levels.

    Develop and maintain strong working relationships with leaders in government, design, educational, cultural, civic, and professional organizations in the community – both in Boston and beyond.

    Work to implement Board initiatives to enhance the involvement and engagement of emerging design professionals and the area schools of architecture in their activities and programs.
