  Algonquin College is changing the world – one learner at a time. Headquartered in Ottawa, on the traditional unceded territory of the Algonquin Anishnaabe People, the College is one of Canada’s leading publicly funded polytechnic institutes, with close to 20,000 full-time and over 45,400 continuing education students. The College has a strong focus on providing a future-focused polytechnic education that embraces and values the diversity of its learners and academic teams and fosters a flexible learning environment that will meet their needs and those of an evolving Canadian economy.

  Reporting to the Senior Vice-President Academic, the Dean is accountable for contributing to the academic well-being and growth of the College and for providing academic and administrative leadership, supervision, support, and direction to four academic chairs, three associate chairs, approximately 150 full-time professors and support staff, and an estimated 250 part-time professors and support staff in the School of Advanced Technology. The Dean is accountable for the planning, development, delivery, and ongoing review of the faculty’s full-time and part-time post-secondary programs, including bachelor’s degrees in applied studies, joint collaborative degrees with a local university, and apprenticeship programming within the School.

A consensus builder with strong communications and interpersonal skills, you can articulate a vision and execute on strategic plans. Finally, your exceptional people leadership skills and student focused approach will be highly useful in this role as will your experience working in large and complex unionized environments.
