Boston College is one of the nation’s best and most selective universities, located on one of the country’s most beautiful college campuses. Grounded in the ideals that inspired its Jesuit founders, BC urges students to look inward but always to reach out — to develop their minds and talents to the fullest and use them in service to others.
The Opportunity
BC seeks an experienced, strategic, and innovative leader to serve as its Director of Advancement Talent. The ideal candidate is not only adept at key functions of human resources but also has a high-level skill set for developing comprehensive programs for talent acquisition and talent management. Vital to building and sustaining a high-performing team will be the ability to create and execute ground-up systems and processes, which will drive overall success within the Advancement Division. This individual will also serve as the internal leader for fostering a culture of inclusion and mutual respect and lead the organization’s efforts related to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
In addition, this individual also needs to embody the mission of BC and strive for performance at the highest levels, both individually and collectively, in the spirit of BC’s motto of “Ever to Excel.” This is an outstanding opportunity for an established or emerging leader with the breadth of skills and creativity to cultivate strong and committed teams. A successful track record that effectively represents best practice models in higher education and a passion for developing talent is essential.
