Job description

Wilkes University invites applicants for a TRIO Director of the Upward Bound Program in the Department of Office of Academic Success. This is a full-time, 12-month administrative staff position (100% time committed to Upward Bound) reporting to the Associate Dean, Academic Success.
The successful candidate is responsible for leading, designing, implementing, administering, and managing all activities of the Upward Bound Program to successfully and consistently ensure achievement of its goal of low-income, first-generation students attaining a college degree.

A Master's degree is required in Education, Social Services, Counseling, or a related field. The ideal candidate will have four or more years prior experience in educational leadership/educational programming (including design, implementation, and management) working with low-income and first-generation students and their families. Experience with Federal TRIO programs is preferred and demonstrated supervisory experience and fiscal/budgetary management is required.
Please be sure to include a cover letter, resume or curriculum vitae and three references including names, titles, full mailing address, telephone numbers and email addresses. Review of applications begins immediately.
Wilkes University is constantly seeking to become a more diverse community and to enhance its capacity to value and capitalize on the cultural richness that diversity brings. The University strongly encourages applications from persons with diverse backgrounds. Wilkes University does not discriminate in its employment practices or in its educational programs or activities on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin, age, religion, disability, pregnancy, sex/gender, gender identity and/or expression, sexual orientation, marital or family status, military or veteran status, or genetic information.
Employment at Wilkes is contingent upon the results of a thorough background screening. PA Act 153 requires that persons working in positions with regular and unsupervised contact with minors complete additional clearances, including FBI fingerprinting and PA criminal and child abuse clearances.
