Reporting to the Vice Provost for Academic Affairs, the Registrar serves as a key leader within Academic Affairs, providing strategic and operational oversight for academic records, registration, curriculum and catalog administration, transfer credit evaluation, degree audit, graduation certification, scheduling support, compliance, academic systems, and related academic operations. As the steward of the institution's academic infrastructure, the Registrar will play a critical role in ensuring the integrity of academic information while partnering with faculty, academic leaders, and administrative colleagues to translate institutional priorities, curricular decisions, and academic policies into effective systems, processes, and services that support student success.

Located in Boston's historic Fenway neighborhood, Wentworth enrolls approximately 4,000 undergraduate students and more than 200 graduate students and is recognized for its distinctive blend of rigorous academics, hands-on learning, and required cooperative education experiences.

The next Registrar will have a unique opportunity to lead technology-enabled transformation, modernize academic operations, streamline workflows, strengthen data governance practices, and help shape a more seamless and student-centered academic experience.

The successful candidate will be a student-centered leader who combines deep registrar expertise with strong organizational leadership, technological sophistication, and a demonstrated ability to build collaborative partnerships across a complex institution. Wentworth seeks a professional who can develop and mentor staff, support shared governance, navigate change effectively, and create sustainable processes that advance institutional goals.

The ideal candidate will bring exceptional communication, relationship-building, project management, and problem-solving skills, along with a commitment to continuous improvement and an understanding of how effective academic operations contribute to student success and institutional effectiveness.

The next University Registrar will join an institution characterized by momentum, innovation, and a willingness to embrace change.
