JOB OPENING:  Executive Director/ Administrator

The GVHS Board is seeking interested candidates to fulfill the role of Executive Director/Administrator.   Current Executive Director, Katherine Mutti, states,  "Since taking on this position at the start of 2013, the Gypsy Vanner Horse Society has experienced tremendous growth in Registered horses, Members and in the programs that are offered.  What I originally took on as a part time role, has likewise grown into a position that requires much more time than I have available in my days. It is time to 'pass the baton' onto another."  
If you are a self-motivated, organized individual with strong communication skills and management experience and are interested in helping to lead the GVHS in furthering its Mission & Goals, please contact us today.
