Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs

The University of North Carolina at Greensboro (UNCG), the largest and one of the most diverse higher education institutions in the Piedmont Triad metropolitan region and the state of North Carolina, seeks a strategic, engaged, and innovative leader to serve as its next Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs.

UNCG is a public, coeducational, doctoral-granting, residential university and one of the three original institutions of the University of North Carolina System. With more than 19,000 students and 2,500 faculty and staff, the University is known for its inclusive learning community with a campus-wide culture that embodies access, equity, diversity, excellence, and collaboration. It is a challenging, supportive, and engaged community joined together by a shared value: We define excellence not only by the people we attract, but by the meaningful contributions they make.

As the University reaches its 125th anniversary, its Chancellor, Franklin D. Gilliam, Jr., is building an ambitious and talented team to help him drive the University forward with “Giant Steps.” Reporting to a supportive and engaged Provost and managing a talented and dedicated team of 275 staff, the next Vice Chancellor will quickly assess the Student Affairs organization, bring fresh energy and ideas, and build a Division on the cutting edge of student life services and programming. This is an exciting opportunity to be a part of a transformative leadership team at a research university long recognized as relevant and responsive to community needs. An aspirational, results-driven risk taker with outstanding judgment, the Vice Chancellor will shape a vision for student success in a culture of care that supports and empowers a growing, diverse student body.

The ideal candidate will have a minimum of ten years of senior level experience in student affairs and a successful record of administration including strategic planning, budgeting, resource management, and program development within an environment of constant and sometimes unexpected change. A collaborative and collegial orientation is key, as are strong managerial skills and institutional savvy. A doctoral degree in higher education administration or a related field is required.
