Business Manager

The Business Manager is the backbone of DREAM's financial and operational systems, ensuring that our mission-driven work is supported by strong, transparent, and efficient financial practices. This role manages payroll, benefits, reconciliations, and expense oversight, while working closely with the Board's Finance Committee, Development, and Program teams to ensure DREAM's financial health and integrity.

This position requires a detail-oriented and proactive professional who can balance daily operational responsibilities with big-picture financial stewardship. The Business Manager will oversee financial systems that keep DREAM running smoothly and in-compliance, and will provide essential reporting to ensure the organization can make prudent and informed decisions.

This is a highly collaborative role, with substantial support from the Board Finance Committee, Executive Team, and staff across the organization. Ongoing teamwork and communication are core to success, as is the ability to translate financial insights into actionable recommendations that advance DREAM's mission and growth.

The DREAM Program is committed to fostering a welcoming and inclusive environment where all staff, volunteers, youth and families have the opportunity to thrive. We believe in continuous learning and growth, and we encourage members to engage with curiosity, openness, and a commitment to making a meaningful impact. Our mission is to close the Opportunity Gap by providing mentorship and enriching experiences that support youth from a wide range of backgrounds. We seek teammates who bring unique and varied perspectives, experiences, and skills. DREAM values individuals who are dedicated to creating an environment where everyone feels seen, supported, and empowered.
