Tamara Campbell Promoted to Executive Vice President & Chief Operating Officer
We are proud to announce the promotion of Tamara Campbell to Executive Vice President & Chief Operating Officer (EVP & COO)—a strategic leadership move that further strengthens the organization’s regional executive model as it advances its Future Ready Triad expansion across High Point, Greensboro, Winston-Salem, and surrounding communities.
Campbell most recently served as the organization’s Chief of Staff & Operations, where she played a central role in guiding BGCTriad through a period of significant organizational transformation. During that time, she helped lead operational restructuring, strengthen internal systems, and build the foundation for a scalable regional infrastructure designed to support long-term growth and impact.
In her expanded role as EVP & COO, Campbell will continue to oversee day-to-day operations while leading the execution of a unified regional operating model—ensuring quality, consistency, accountability, and operational excellence as BGCTriad grows into a multi-city, multi-site organization.
This leadership transition reflects BGCTriad’s commitment to building a strong, forward-thinking executive team aligned with Boys & Girls Clubs of America’s Future Ready framework—focused on being better, bigger, and bolder on behalf of youth.
“As we step fully into a regional model, leadership alignment and operational excellence are non-negotiable,” said William D. Gibson, President & CEO of Boys & Girls Clubs of the Greater Triad. “Tam has been instrumental in helping us lay the foundation for what comes next. She is a trusted partner, a disciplined operator, and a values-driven leader. Elevating her to Executive Vice President & COO strengthens our ability to scale with intention, protect quality, and deliver on the promise of the Future Ready Triad.”
Under Campbell’s leadership, BGCTriad has advanced critical internal systems, strengthened cross-functional collaboration, and positioned the organization to support new Club launches, expanded school-based partnerships, and regional shared services—all while maintaining a relentless focus on safety, staff support, and youth outcomes.
“Leadership isn’t about being in charge—it’s about taking care of those in your charge and proving it every single day,” Campbell shared. “This work is about building something that lasts. I’m inspired by the vision we have for our organization, and I’m eager to see that vision come to life alongside an incredible team. We remain deeply rooted in our mission and our commitment to the young people, families, and communities we serve.”
The promotion comes at a pivotal moment for BGCTriad, as the organization prepares for its next phase of growth—including the launch of new Clubs and partnerships in Greensboro and Winston-Salem, the expansion of regional fundraising and advancement efforts, and continued investment in data-driven impact, staff development, and operational excellence.
Founded on a legacy of service in High Point, Boys & Girls Clubs of the Greater Triad is emerging as a regional leader in youth development—creating safe spaces, caring relationships, and pathways to academic success, workforce readiness, and lifelong opportunity for thousands of young people across the Triad.
