United Way of Miami-Dade's volunteer board recognizes that in order to attract and retain quality executive and professional level talent, it is necessary to provide competitive compensation. Therefore, the board sets salary ranges accordingly.
These ranges are set by using comparative and competitive information. The board evaluates salary ranges of similar-sized United Ways in other markets as well as at local comparable institutions -- non-profit hospitals, universities and organizations like chambers of commerce and convention bureaus.
United Way of Miami-Dade is a community organization, not an agency providing direct health and human care services. United Way's mission is to build community by helping people care for one another. It is in the business of shaping a quality human care system for our community -- similar to what the Beacon Council does in shaping a healthy local economy and the Convention and Visitors Bureau does in promoting tourism, Miami-Dade's number one industry.
When looking at compensation for the president of United Way of Miami-Dade, it is important to keep in mind that this position requires regular interfacing with top corporate, government and labor leadership of the community. It also includes substantial contact with media and other opinion-makers and leaders. The president of United Way of Miami-Dade is ultimately responsible for providing leadership and direction to the development of a quality human care system within our community.
Like all corporations, United Way staff receives a competitive benefits package that includes health, dental, vision, life and disability coverage along with a retirement pension.
United Way's board is comprised of volunteers. They receive no compensation for their service.
