CAREER OPPORTUNITY:

Institution: Santa Clara University
Position:  Vice President of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

The vice president for diversity, equity and inclusion will build on past efforts, including the recommendations from the Blue Ribbon Commission on Diversity and Inclusion (2016), the Task Force on Diversity and Inclusion (2017), and the Campus Climate Team (2018-19), to drive meaningful change in campus culture.

The new vice president will be a bold, visionary and strategic thinker, someone who will rise to this moment and shape the future of diversity, equity and inclusion for Santa Clara. Harnessing the insights and energy of faculty, staff, alumni, and students, as well as its culture of innovation, commitment to social justice, and dynamic relationship with the entrepreneurialism of Silicon Valley, the vice president will set the tone and build a strategic plan for an environment that educates leaders of competence, conscience, and compassion while fostering a strong sense of belonging for all.

The ideal candidate will have a proven record of innovative applications of emerging practices around equity, diversity and inclusion in a higher education context and success in leading positive culture change in complex organizations. The vice president will listen with empathy and concern; nurture positive, transparent and cooperative relationships; navigate difficult conversations and tough situations with compassion and astuteness; demonstrate skill in motivating and unifying people across campus around a strategic vision; and utilize data and research to inform analysis leading to the development of measurable goals and systems of accountability. An earned doctorate or other terminal degree is preferred. While the successful candidate will serve full-time as the vice president for diversity, equity and inclusion, the candidate could be eligible to hold a faculty appointment at Santa Clara University concurrent with serving in the vice president’s position.

All applications, nominations, and inquiries are invited. Applications should include, as two separate documents, a CV or resume and a letter of interest addressing the themes in the leadership profile.
