Another Source's client, Washington State University Vancouver (WSUV), is recruiting a Campus Registrar to join their Enrollment team in Vancouver, WA. You'll have the opportunity to lead a cross-functional team spanning registrar, veterans' affairs, and one-stop student services while modernizing enrollment operations and improving the student experience.

Here's a little about Washington State University Vancouver and the position they are recruiting for:

WSU Vancouver is the second-largest campus in the WSU system, serving more than 3,500 students on a stunning 351-acre site with views of Mount Hood and Mount St. Helens.

The Campus Registrar is a visible campus leader, shaping enrollment services, student records, and commencement experiences while ensuring students, staff, and faculty have the support they need to thrive.
