    • Ensure compliance with all relevant regulations and policies, including food safety, labor laws, and environmental regulations
    • Collaborate with other organizations and stakeholders to build strong and resilient regional food systems
    • Represent The Common Market and the Mid-Atlantic food hub to external stakeholders, including funders, policymakers, and the media

    Requirements

    • At least 7 years of experience in nonprofit management, food systems, or a related field
    • Strong financial management skills, including budgeting and forecasting

    • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build relationships and collaborate with diverse stakeholders
    • Strong leadership skills, with the ability to lead, manage, and inspire a team
    • Knowledge of and/or experience with sustainable agriculture and local food systems
    • Ability to work independently, prioritize tasks, and manage multiple projects simultaneously.

    • Health Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision)
    • Retirement Plan (SIMPLE IRA with 100% employer match)
