Thank you for your interest in this important opportunity. This Executive Brief contains an overview of the Aga Khan Foundation (AKF) and an outline of the Regional Director, North America (Programs and Partnerships) position. Additional information about AKF can be found at https://www.akfc.ca/ and https://www.akfusa.org/.
If you wish to be considered, please send your résumé, cover letter and any other relevant materials to Michael Naufal, Craig Stevens (cstevens@boyden.com), and Alain Pescador (apescador@boyden.com). You will also be asked to complete a self-assessment questionnaire as part of your submission. The questionnaire will offer you the opportunity to highlight, in your own words, how your experience aligns with the key mandates and criteria of the role.
While there is no official deadline for submissions, we would appreciate receiving your materials at your earliest convenience. Boyden will begin interviewing candidates in short order, assessing for motivation, experience, and alignment with the key criteria set out in this brief. Although some of the material may be subject to change, we will do our best to keep you informed of any new developments over the course of the search.
A first long list of top-rated candidates will be presented to the Committee on the second or third week of December. During this meeting, the Committee will review and short list the candidates for interviews. The long list and candidate materials will be shared with the Committee a few days prior to the meeting.
Should you be short listed, you will be invited to interview in person or via videoconference. You may also be invited back for a 2nd interview if you are one of the finalist candidates.
We encourage you to contact us should you have any specific questions.
Best regards,
