Marin Academy

San Rafael, California

Marin Academy (MA) stands at a threshold. Over the past seven years, MA’s disciplined endowment strategy has doubled the school's financial foundation from $15 million to $31 million. Vision 2030 and 2050's transformative campus plans move forward—a new aquatic center opens, housing for Penn Fellows takes shape, and conversations about the next phase pulse through leadership. The MA Promise has rewritten the school's commitment to access: free tuition for any admitted student whose family earns under $100,000 annually. After three decades of steady financial leadership that built this platform, MA prepares for its next chapter—not because something broke, but because everything MA has built now positions it to imagine more boldly.

The next Chief Financial Officer will join Head of School Travis Brownley and MA's senior team as a creative partner in answering the question: What can this school become? In a moment when independent schools face demographic shifts, tuition pressures, and questions about value, MA's financial leader must be more than a steward. They must architect sustainable innovation, translate between vision and resources, and see financial strategy not as a constraint but as the language of possibility.

This exceptional opportunity seeks a financial leader who wants to work at the intersection of mission and money, where every budget reflects values and every projection shapes what students will experience. MA's finances stand on solid ground—an annual operating budget of $34 million, facilities in excellent condition, and a track record of meeting ambitious goals. The incoming CFO inherits strength and stability. What they create next is the interesting part.

Benefits

The anticipated salary range for this position is between $250,000 and $350,000 annually, commensurate with the successful candidate’s experience. MA offers competitive benefits, including health insurance, retirement contributions, and professional development support. Screening of complete applications will begin immediately and continue until the completion of the search process. Please submit inquiries, nominations, and applications—including CV and cover letter—in confidence to:
