About William Floyd

Senior nonprofit and executive leader with more than 30 years of experience building and leading organizations across complex, multi-site environments. My career began in the for-profit sector, where I held senior leadership roles across strategy, operations, budgets, teams, and growth. Today, I bring that experience into mission-driven work, applying operational discipline, financial stewardship, and relationship-based leadership to strengthen impact and long-term sustainability.My leadership approach is stewardship-focused and shaped by executive experience guiding organizations through growth and transition. I focus on clear systems, aligned priorities, and accountability so people and resources support the mission effectively.I currently serve in active nonprofit leadership and board roles supporting children and families affected by cancer, with work across fund development, operations, governance, and community engagement. This has strengthened my understanding of nonprofit accountability, donor stewardship, and mission alignment.My background in packaging, logistics, distribution, and multi-site operations has shaped how I approach nonprofit leadership. I am effective in organizations navigating growth or transition, where strong teams, clear systems, and responsible use of resources matter most.I am seeking an Executive Director or senior nonprofit leadership role where I can provide hands-on leadership, build and empower strong teams, and support fund development, operations, and organizational strategy to drive sustainable growth and community impact. • Fund Development and Donor Stewardship• Operations and Organizational Leadership• Budget Management, P&L, and Financial Oversight• Team Development and Engagement• Multi-Site and Logistics-Driven Environments• Strategic Planning and Execution• Governance Partnership and Board Collaboration• Metrics, Accountability, and Continuous Improvement Arizona Cancer Foundation for Children / Brave Like Ellie / Feed My Starving Children / Big Brothers Big Sisters / Playworks / YMCA / Boy Scouts of America – Eagle Scout | Order of the Arrow Boys & Girls Clubs of America / Girls on the Run International / Arizona Cancer Foundation for Children / Brave Like Ellie / Phoenix Children’s Hospital / Playworks / ProLiteracy
