Executive Director (Wine Jobs: Management & Administration)

Full Time

  Bartholomew Foundation

  Sonoma, CA, California

The Bartholomew Foundation seeks a creative and entrepreneurial Executive Director to steward Sonoma’s beloved 375-acre Bartholomew Park and Bartholomew Estate Winery that together preserve and celebrate the birthplace of California’s premium wine industry.

The Bartholomew Foundation’s first-ever Executive Director will craft and implement a bold, integrated strategy for both the Park and the Winery that honors the Estate’s legacy while charting an inspired and financially stable path forward. The Foundation seeks a creative visionary: an entrepreneurial, fearless, and “out‑of‑the‑box” thinker who thrives on possibility, someone who sees the chance to shape this property’s future as a once‑in‑a‑lifetime opportunity.

The Executive Director will oversee both Park and Winery operations and must combine entrepreneurial vision with proven management excellence. The position requires a leader who can balance the dual responsibilities of the role, recognizing that success in both enterprises is essential to the Foundation’s mission. The ideal candidate has a strong grasp of both strategic thinking and hands-on engagement and is comfortable transitioning between big-picture planning and day-to-day problem-solving.

 

This is a full-time, exempt, benefit-eligible position. The anticipated annual salary range is $180,000–$220,000, commensurate with experience, on a base-plus-bonus basis. The range provided is an estimate and will be evaluated on an individual basis, taking into consideration the candidate’s knowledge, skills, abilities, and experience.

A comprehensive benefits package for this new role will be developed in collaboration with the selected candidate, and will include health insurance, retirement contributions, paid time off, and other benefits appropriate to the role and organization.
