About the role

Shepherd Staff is honored to be working with Deeper Walk International, as they search for their next CEO. This opportunity is significant: guiding a founder-built ministry into its next chapter as the organization’s ultimate leader while honoring the heartbeat that has carried it through the years.
Position Overview: The position calls for a leader of real command presence – someone who claims full operational authority and who finds in founder alignment not a limit on that authority but a force multiplier for it. They will advance the Founder’s legacy through decisive leadership, expand momentum and infrastructure, and turn a proven body of content and vision into ministry impact that scales. This opportunity carries extraordinary promise – a rare inflection point at which the mission and content are already proven and an experienced executive leader is the only variable standing between the ministry and its full trajectory. Deeper Walk has a defining runway for the right CEO, with a Founder ready to release control, a healthy board equipped to govern, and genuine missional momentum.
Ideal Candidate: Criteria A strong and secure executive who holds full operational authority while treating Founder alignment as a strength to steward in order to elevate the ministry into its next season. A discerning organizational architect who can convert two decades of Founder-driven momentum into sustainable infrastructure that outlasts any single leader. A revenue-minded strategic force who treats fundraising as a core executive discipline and is capable of building a scalable development engine that compounds over time. A culture-fluent change agent who can absorb the organization’s theological and missional DNA with enough fluency to lead transformation through earned trust. A governance-mature partner to the board who builds institutional trust through consistency, transparency, and disciplined execution at the highest level of leadership.
Compensation: Highly competitive + benefits

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
