Highest Paid Nonprofit CEOs in Maine
6 nonprofit CEO salaries in Maine. The highest-paid earns $7.0M at Bowdoin College.
Schedule J of IRS Form 990 requires nonprofits to disclose compensation for the five highest-paid employees plus the CEO. The Maine data below covers organizations that meet the filing threshold — 6 in total across the state.
Reading officer compensation requires context: $1M in aggregate officer pay at a $50M nonprofit reads very differently than the same figure at a $5B hospital system. The ratio columns below normalize compensation against organizational revenue. Form 990 Schedule J data has a 12-18 month lag from the calendar year the compensation covers — what you see here is the most recent filing year, not the current year.
