About the Role

The Company is seeking a Dean for its Graduate School of Education. The successful candidate will be tasked with advancing the school's mission, enhancing its research, teaching, and service excellence, and increasing its national prominence. This leadership role is pivotal in shaping a unified vision, guiding the integration of the Graduate School of Religion, and driving the institution toward greater distinction. The Dean will be expected to leverage the school's strengths, cultivate partnerships, and develop new revenue streams to ensure long-term sustainability while being prepared to navigate socio-political challenges with foresight and adaptability. Ideal candidates for the Dean position at the company's Graduate School of Education will have a strong academic and administrative background, a commitment to the institution's mission, and a proven track record in promoting access, inclusion, equity, and diversity. The role requires a leader with a history of advancing teaching excellence, scholarship, and service, as well as strong fundraising and external engagement skills. The Dean will be responsible for fostering a sense of community and building strategic partnerships, and must have an academic record that qualifies for a tenured faculty position at the rank of full professor. This is an exciting opportunity for a visionary leader to make a significant impact on the education and training of a diverse range of practitioners and scholars.
