Chief Financial Officer

Boys & Girls Club of the Northern Plains (BGCNP) is a mission-driven, multi-community organization serving young people and families across Brookings, Elkton, Moody County, Yankton, Milbank, and Vermillion. Through safe, welcoming environments and high-quality programs, BGCNP helps young people build meaningful relationships with caring adults, develop character and confidence, strengthen academic and life skills, and envision promising futures.

BGCNP’s mission is to inspire and enable all young people, especially those who need the organization most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, and responsible citizens. Its values of excellence, impact, teamwork, and good character guide how the organization serves young people, supports staff, and partners with its communities.

Following a period of significant growth, BGCNP is entering an important next chapter. The organization is focused on strengthening the financial and operational foundation required to sustain its impact, manage increasing complexity, and thoughtfully pursue future opportunities.

The CFO will bring greater clarity, consistency, discipline, and strategic insight to this environment while ensuring that financial practices remain aligned with BGCNP’s mission and goals.

Success will require a leader who can work at both strategic and practical levels. The CFO must be equally comfortable guiding high-level board discussions, partnering with organizational leaders, mentoring staff, evaluating systems, and becoming directly involved in financial processes when needed.
