    WHAT WE DO For over 25 years, the Spokane Workforce Council (SWC) has played a key role in guiding the region's workforce and economic development. Originally established as a city department in the 1990s and evolving into a private-sector-led Local Workforce Board in 1998, the SWC transitioned into a governmental nonprofit organization in 2013. Today, the SWC is a mission-driven leader dedicated to elevating local workforce efforts through critical insights, researched guidance, innovative funding, and strategic partnerships. Last year, SWC invested more than $12M into local job seekers, employers, and the regional economy.

Through our dedicated community partnerships, we bridge the gap between jobseekers and employers. By modernizing the workforce system and integrating diverse services, SWC continues to build a stronger, more resilient community for all. LEADERSHIP & CULTURE Recognized as one of the most innovative and well-run workforce boards in the state of Washington, SWC operates with a culture of high trust, high accountability, and intentional autonomy.

    Executive director job in Seattle, WA

    About United Way of King County Driven by the pursuit of a more equitable community, United Way of King County (UWKC) works to meet more than immediate housing and hunger needs; it works side by side with communities to dismantle the systems that created these inequities in the first place. By centering the voices and leadership of those most impacted, and building bold, trusted partnerships grounded in racial equity, UWKC is not just helping neighbors today but building a better, more equitable tomorrow. With a strong history of getting resources into the hands of communities through a mix of direct services, grantmaking, and cross-sector collaboration, UWKC plays a uniquely valuable role in the human services ecosystem by serving as a connector and catalyst across public, private, and nonprofit partners. In addition to managing tangible, high-impact programs that address urgent community needs, UWKC offers a platform for civic-minded leaders to contribute their skills and expertise through Board and committee service, strategic problem solving, and partnership development. Working in partnership enables UWKC to be responsive, transparent, and deeply caring. The organization is embracing the opportunity to reimagine and modernize the United Way model, including new services and earned-revenue concepts like fee-for-service tools and becoming a stronger conduit for coordinated services. As a trusted partner to local government and community partners, UWKC works to shape solutions at scale by pairing community voice with data and focus, leveraging public/private dollars, and scaling what works beyond pilots. There is also the opportunity to expand UWKC's role as a fundraising leader and philanthropy educator by engaging donors with clear, outcome-driven strategies and strong stewardship. With an operating budget of $50 million, a staff of 110 and a Board of 28 committed community leaders, UWKC is well positioned to leverage deep institutional relationships, its highly respected local and national brand, and enduring relevance in the region to strengthen its role as a leader addressing complex social challenges. The Opportunity for Impact The President and CEO role presents an opportunity to lead one of Seattle's most iconic, established, and respected organizations as it moves into new areas of opportunity for enhanced community partnership. This is a pivotal moment for UWKC that requires an innovative thinker and strategic leader to elevate the mission and deepen impact in communities across King County. This is an excellent opportunity for a leader who thrives on envisioning what's possible and translating that vision into actionable strategy. As the leader of one of the largest United Way affiliates in the country, the UWKC President and CEO has access to a range of national-level opportunities from helping to shape the future of the movement, to engaging in policy and systems-change and professional development. About the President and CEO Role Reporting to the Board of Directors, the President and CEO will serve as United Way of King County's primary executive leader, responsible for setting strategic direction, fostering a healthy and inclusive organizational culture, and ensuring long-term financial and operational sustainability, all in support of enabling UWKC to deliver on its mission.
