Florida Pharmacy Association

The Florida Pharmacy Association’s (FPA) Board of Directors seeks candidates for the position of Executive Vice President/Chief Executive Officer (EVP/CEO) for immediate hire.

The Organization

The Florida Pharmacy Association is the collective voice of the profession of pharmacy in the state, representing the goals, values, and best interests of thousands of pharmacists, student pharmacists, and pharmacy technicians at both the state and national levels. Founded in 1887, FPA is a 501(c)(6) not-for-profit trade association dedicated to advancing and supporting the pharmacy profession across Florida.

• Mission: Unifying and strengthening the voice of pharmacy while advancing pharmacy practice through education, advocacy, collaboration, and relationships.
• Vision: The trusted resource in optimizing patient outcomes through unifying, educating and guiding pharmacy practitioners in changing the health care landscape.

Position Overview

The association seeks a mission-driven and experienced nonprofit association executive. The ideal candidate is a hands-on leader who empowers and develops high-performing teams, thrives in a dynamic environment, and is committed to advancing the association’s strategic priorities, modernizing infrastructure, and delivering measurable value to members. This role requires initiative, adaptability, and a strong work ethic, with a leader who is as comfortable setting direction as they are stepping in to ensure execution.

The Executive Vice President/Chief Executive Officer (EVP/CEO) is based at the Florida Pharmacy Association’s office in Tallahassee, Florida, and is responsible for leading, growing, and sustaining a strong and impactful professional association. Working closely with the Board of Directors, staff, volunteer leaders, industry partners, and policymakers, the EVP/CEO provides overall leadership for the Association’s administration, programs, advocacy efforts, and strategic direction.

This role requires a leader who understands how to run the day-to-day operations of a professional association. While vision and strategic thinking are important, the Board is seeking a hands-on executive, someone willing to work alongside staff, understand internal operations, and help strengthen and position the Association for long-term growth and sustainability.

This position requires a consistent, on-the-ground presence in Florida. The EVP/CEO must reside in

Florida or be willing to relocate and establish residency within the state. The EVP/CEO must be able to travel to Tallahassee as needed for legislative session and remain actively engaged at key meetings, events, and Association activities across the state to effectively represent the Association and advance

its priorities.
