About the Role

The Company is in search of a Chief Administrative Officer to the President, a pivotal role that combines high-level executive support with operational leadership. The successful candidate will be a key partner to the President, serving as a central point of coordination between the President’s office and a wide range of internal and external stakeholders. This mission-critical position demands a leader with exceptional judgment, political and cultural acumen, and operational sophistication, who can ensure the seamless advancement of the President’s priorities. Responsibilities include managing the President’s calendar, high-level engagements, and strategic initiatives, as well as overseeing the operations of the President’s Executive Office and leading a dedicated team. The role is not a conventional executive assistant position; it requires a strategic advisor with a deep commitment to the mission of the organization. Applicants for the Chief Administrative Officer role at the company should have a Bachelor’s degree or equivalent, with a minimum of 10 years' of executive leadership and 5 years' of management experience. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record in leading teams, setting strategic priorities, and managing complex operational functions. Strong relationship-building, influence, and communication skills are essential, as is the ability to anticipate executive needs and execute with minimal direction. A commitment to upholding organizational policies and standards is a must. While not mandatory, an advanced degree and experience in higher education or large public institutions are preferred. The role requires a leader who can integrate office operations with institutional strategies and governance processes, and who is adept at making operational decisions with organization-wide implications.
