Overview
The Office of Academic Space Management (ASM) coordinates the operation, planning, and stewardship of research, teaching laboratory, and academic space across Arts, Sciences & Engineering (AS&E), including both the School of Arts and Sciences and the School of Engineering. ASM serves as a strategic resource to school leadership, academic units, faculty, and university partners in setting priorities for the development, assignment, renovation, and use of research and academic spaces.
ASM directly manages multiple facilities on the Medford/Somerville campus, including the Tsungming Tu Complex, Collaborative Learning and Innovation Complex, Joyce Cummings Center, Science & Technology Center, Barnum Hall, Eaton Hall, and Bacon teaching laboratories, while also providing planning and project support across AS&E's broader academic and research space portfolio.
This is an exciting opportunity for a collaborative and strategic leader to shape the future of research operations and academic space across a highly research-intensive environment. The Senior Director of Research Operations and Academic Space Management will play a critical role in supporting faculty success, faculty recruitment, research growth, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the effective stewardship of laboratories, research facilities, classrooms, and academic spaces that advance the teaching and research mission of Tufts University.

  • Collaborate with stakeholders across the schools to support building operations, infrastructure planning, access management, technology needs, furniture planning, equipment storage, and related operational initiatives.

Space Analytics, Governance, and Decision Support
  • Maintain and oversee space inventories, databases, utilization metrics, and related reporting tools that support data-informed decision making.
  • Analyze research productivity, space utilization, occupancy, and operational data to inform planning, resource allocation, and policy development.
  • Prepare recommendations, presentations, and analyses for faculty leaders, department administrators, and senior leadership.
  • Support the identification, tracking, and sharing of research equipment, facilities, and other high-value resources across the Medford/Somerville campus.
  • Develop and support policies, practices, and governance processes that promote effective use of research and academic space.

Research Infrastructure, Laboratory Operations, and Compliance Coordination
  • Partner with the Office of the Vice Provost for Research, Environmental Health & Safety, Facilities Services, faculty, department administrators, and academic leadership to support research and teaching laboratory operations.
  • Coordinate planning related to laboratory readiness, research infrastructure, equipment needs, hazardous materials storage considerations, and compliance-related space requirements.
  • Support initiatives that strengthen shared research infrastructure, improve utilization of specialized equipment, and enhance the stewardship of high-cost scientific resources.
  • Foster collaboration and operational excellence across research and teaching environments while supporting the evolving needs of faculty and researchers.

Leadership and Team Management
  • Lead, mentor, and develop the Academic Space Management team, fostering a culture of collaboration, service, accountability, and continuous improvement.
