Executive Director Opportunity

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am excited to announce that Recovery Café Longmont is seeking an experienced Executive Director to lead the next chapter of strategic growth and impact. Rooted in the belief that everyone deserves a place to belong, the Café has been and will continue to be a healing, relationship-centered community for individuals navigating substance and alcohol use disorder, mental health challenges, trauma, and other difficult life experiences.

The Café is poised for considerable growth. The organization recently purchased a larger facility in the heart of Longmont and has already secured $3M toward a $5.8M capital campaign goal. The renovated facility will expand programs, improve accessibility, fully incorporate the Recovery Café Network model, and serve as a sober community event space.

Our next Executive Director will be a strategic, relational leader who can guide Recovery Café Longmont to greater impact and organizational maturity. This leader will:

• Put people, relationships, and partnerships at the heart of the work, guided by our core values.
• Complete the capital campaign and grow the organization’s fundraising capacity.
• Realize the facility renovation and prepare the organization to thrive in its new home.
• Oversee program and operational expansion and development.
• Provide exemplary staff management, care, and professional development.
• Continue to evolve the organization’s systems, culture, and structures for long-term sustainability.

If you or someone you know is passionate about recovery, community, and dignity for all, and has the experience to lead a growing nonprofit, we invite you to apply or share this opportunity widely. Visit www.recoverycafelongmont.org/jobs/executive-director

In addition, with profound appreciation for Jen Jepsen’s leadership, the Board and Jen have agreed that an immediate search for an Interim Executive Director for a two to three month period will best serve our community and the Café. That search is well underway, and we’ll update you once that selection has been made. A celebration for Jen will be forthcoming early in the new year. 

As always, should you have any questions, please reach out to me at boardchair@recoverycafelongmont.org.

With deep gratitude,

Claire Clurman
