  • Prepare high-impact dashboards, executive briefings, and data narratives for senior leadership and the Board of Trustees.
  • Provide overall leadership and direction for the Institutional Research office, including prioritization of analytic work and development of staff capacity.
  • Oversee submission of all official institutional data to federal and state agencies, accreditors, and ranking organizations, ensuring accuracy, compliance, and consistency.
  • Maintain deep expertise in evolving reporting standards and national/global ranking methodologies and proactively assess institutional implications.
  • Partner with institutional stakeholders such as Information Technology Services, Budget Office, Global Affairs, Human Resources, Enrollment, Registrar, Institutional Insights & Innovation (i3), and others to align reporting processes, strengthen data governance practices, and improve analytic tools.
  • Promote data-informed decision-making and consistent data definitions across academic and administrative units.

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS
