Temporary

The Programming Director provides programmatic, operational, and administrative leadership in support of Summer School programs and services. The position oversees key academic, student services, financial, and operational processes and serves as a liaison among Summer School, academic departments, students, advisors, and University partners.
Working closely with the Associate Dean and Summer School leadership, the Programming Director ensures that established University processes are implemented accurately and efficiently, identifies issues requiring leadership attention, and coordinates activities across multiple teams and organizational units. The position has particular responsibility for course and instructor administration, visiting student and admissions processes, off-campus programs, Explore@UNC financial and payroll operations, and other projects as assigned.
Because many responsibilities require knowledge of University policies, systems, processes, and organizational structures, successful performance in this position requires substantial higher education administrative experience and, preferably, prior experience working at UNC-Chapel Hill.
