    Description
    Overview

    The Council of the Humanities at Princeton University welcomes candidates for a Program Manager to start immediately.

    The "Humanities Council" fosters cutting-edge research; sponsors interdisciplinary, collaborative projects and innovative courses; and advocates for the humanities at Princeton and in the public conversation. We are known by our many constituencies—faculty, students, and distinguished visitors—as a crossroads for humanistic inquiry, a platform for debate, and a meeting place for 16 humanities departments and more than 30 interdisciplinary programs. We are also known for our core values of innovation, public engagement, globalization, and diversity, equity, inclusion, and access.

    Under the supervision of the academic Council manager and faculty directors, the Program Manager will be responsible for one or two undergraduate minors or degree-granting programs, along with other smaller Council initiatives or programs as needed.

    The manager is responsible for day-to-day operations of the programs, supports faculty directors with implementing curricula, and participates in strategic planning for operations and activities. The Program Manager is responsible for ensuring that faculty, students, and staff have the necessary assistance to carry out their academic, research, and administrative duties. Responsibilities include, but are not limited to: academic, financial, event, communications, and project management. In collaboration with the Council's Communications Manager, the Manager will prepare content for program webpages, brochures, publicity, mailing lists, and reports. The Humanities Council is a collaborative team and the Program Manager will likely be asked to assist with planning international trips, projects, and shared initiatives.
