About the Role

The Company is in search of a Dean for its School of the Arts, a pivotal role that demands a visionary leader to oversee and elevate the institution's art, design, film, music, and theatre programs. The successful candidate will be responsible for shaping a bold vision for creative excellence, driving interdisciplinary collaboration, and fostering a culture of innovation. This leadership position involves not only academic and operational management but also a strong focus on enrollment growth, student success, and external relations. The Dean will be expected to lead and develop faculty and staff, expand experiential and career-connected learning, and strengthen ties with alumni, donors, and the broader arts community. Applicants for the Dean position at the company's School of the Arts should hold a terminal degree in an arts discipline or a related field, with a minimum of 5 years' significant leadership experience in academia or at least 10 years' executive-level leadership in the nonprofit or arts industry. The role requires a candidate with a proven track record in academic and creative leadership, as well as a demonstrated commitment to the mission and transformative value of higher education. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in recruitment, marketing, and organizational growth, and may also have experience in teaching within a fine arts discipline. The Dean will be expected to be a visible ambassador for the institution, advocating for its arts programs and fostering relationships within the regional and national arts education communities.
