Job Summary

ABOUT YMCA of GREATER SEATTLE

The YMCA of Greater Seattle is the Northwest’s leading nonprofit organization strengthening communities through youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility. This Y’s mission is building a community where all people, especially the young, are encouraged to develop their fullest potential in spirit, mind, and body.  The Y nurtures the development of children and teens, equips and encourages people to improve their health and well-being, and mobilizes volunteers and community partners to address critical social needs. Founded in 1876, the Y enhances the lives of more than 260,000 people annually through 13 branches, two overnight camps, and hundreds of program sites throughout King and south Snohomish counties.   

 

This is a time of growth as the Y opened a new branch in Sammamish in 2016 with plans to begin construction in 2018 for a branch in Kent as well as plans for a major replacement of the University District Y.  Annual revenue for 2017 was over $100 million with expenses just above $90 million.  The excess of revenue is primarily the result of a multi-year capital campaign.   Total assets exceed $225 million with net assets of approximately $180 million.   The corporate administration offices are located in downtown Seattle on 4th Ave.

 

The Y is an equal opportunity employer committed to workplace diversity, inclusion and equity.
