Administrator

The Moran Company is pleased to partner with the Marcia Brady Tucker Foundation to recruit the organization's Administrator.

The Marcia Brady Tucker Foundation (MBTF) is a private family foundation established to carry on the philanthropic legacy of Marcia Brady Tucker. Rooted in a longstanding family commitment to charitable giving, the Foundation brings together multiple generations to support organizations aligned with its mission of giving back. The Foundation manages approximately $14 million in assets and awards roughly $500,000 in grants each year. Its Membership consists of approximately 40 adult family members spanning multiple generations, who elect the Board of Directors to govern the Foundation. The Foundation supports a diverse portfolio of charitable organizations through two annual board-approved grant cycles (with in-person Board meetings) and a robust member-match program that funds roughly 130–150 charitable gifts each year.

The Marcia Brady Tucker Foundation seeks an organized, personable Administrator with strong communication skills to provide the day-to-day administrative, financial, and logistical support that allows this volunteer-led family foundation to operate smoothly. This is a half-time salaried position and the Foundation's only employee.

Reporting to the President and working closely with the Directors, committees, and Members, the Administrator serves as the Foundation's central point of coordination. Responsibilities include maintaining records and financial documentation, supporting the grantmaking process, organizing the Foundation's twice-yearly meetings, and communicating regularly with members who represent a wide range of ages, locations, and backgrounds. The Administrator carries out the decisions of the Board and works closely with Members and outside professionals (CPA, investment advisors, legal counsel, and insurers) to ensure the Foundation operates in accordance with its Bylaws, its Statement of Purpose, and applicable law.

This is a hands-on administrative role rather than an executive leadership position. The role calls for someone who can work independently and proactively, exercise sound judgment and discretion with sensitive information, and bring steadiness and good humor. The workload follows a seasonal rhythm, with concentrated activity around the two annual meetings (April and October) and the December member-match and year-end period, and with a lighter pace in between.

The Administrator oversees the Foundation’s daily operations, supports its leadership and committees, and manages organizational records, calendars, deadlines, and communications. Responsibilities include administering grants, managing budgets and financial records, coordinating tax and compliance matters, and planning the Foundation’s two annual meetings. The Administrator also maintains vendor and member relationships, modernizes technology and record-keeping systems, and ensures communications and sensitive information are handled professionally and confidentially.

The successful candidate will have a bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience and at least five years of progressively responsible administrative, nonprofit, or financial operations experience, preferably within a foundation, family philanthropy, or membership organization. The role requires knowledge of accounting, financial reporting, private foundation regulations, technology systems, and professional communication with Board Members, grantees, and other stakeholders. The ideal candidate will be organized, self-directed, discreet, resilient, respectful of the Foundation’s history, and willing to travel twice annually and work evenings or weekends during peak periods.

The Foundation offers an annual salary of $50,000 to $55,000 for this half-time position, commensurate with experience and qualifications. The position is performed remotely, with travel required for the Foundation's two annual meetings. The Foundation reimburses travel expenses and ordinary business costs, including office supplies, software, and continuing education.
