Huntsville, Ala. — HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology has launched the search for a new vice president for educational outreach with the goal of having a leader in place before July 1.
Reporting to the president, the vice president for educational outreach will provide strategic leadership of educational initiatives that advance the Institute’s mission and that further its role as a leader in STEM education. As a member of the executive leadership team, the vice president will work collaboratively with senior managers across the Institute to promote enterprise initiatives and cultivate key stakeholder relationships at the local, state and national levels.
The successful candidate must demonstrate a record of successful leadership and the capacity to serve as an ambassador for the Institute. Experience leading highly collaborative teams and effectively managing programs and resources are critical, in addition to an understanding of advances in genomics and biotechnology, to promote the field in general and the work of HudsonAlpha.
