About the Role

The Company is seeking a Chief Operating Officer (COO) to join its leadership team. The COO will be responsible for driving social impact, enhancing human well-being, and stimulating economic growth by overseeing the disciplined execution and continuous improvement of the core functions. This includes the efficient and transparent administration of sponsored programs and technology, with a focus on supporting the research and discovery environment. The successful candidate will be a hands-on, service-oriented executive, ensuring that strategy translates into high-quality delivery across a complex, distributed system. The role also involves building trusted relationships, ensuring clear accountability, and a strong customer-service orientation. Candidates for the COO position at the company should have a proven track record in one or more key operational areas, such as research administration, technology transfer, finance, legal affairs, or human resources. A deep familiarity with research compliance and commercialization is essential. The ideal candidate will be a data-informed, execution-focused leader, capable of partnering with the President to identify and optimize operations for the benefit of the faculty and research administrators. The COO will be expected to lead a high-performing team, foster a culture of responsiveness, accountability, and partnership, and ensure that operational procedures are communicated clearly and transparently. Strong strategic leadership, management, relationship management, and communication skills are required, along with a commitment to the values of inclusion, equity, and belonging.
