Job Description

Graduate School Faculty Position: Leadership

Program Director and Leadership Instructor

Start date: September 1, 2026

Salary range: Minimum Full-Time Starting Salary is $86,030

About Bank Street

Bank Street College was founded over 100 years ago in the tradition of progressive education and is committed to learner-centered education based on sound developmental principles. The master's programs integrate direct experience with children, teachers, and families; exploration and examination of theory and research; and observation and reflection. Our curriculum supports the development of intellectual curiosity grounded in a social justice orientation.

Position Overview

This is a full-time, 10-month faculty position for a program director and instructor in Bank Street’s Leadership Department. The focus of this position will be Bank Street’s redesigned online Educational Leadership Program with pathways in Progressive Leadership and Early Childhood Leadership, with the potential to add other pathways. The redesigned program will lead to the NYS Administrator Certification. Depending on the Leadership Department's needs, the individual hired for this position may also teach and/or advise in other Bank Street leadership programs.

Candidates must have expertise in early childhood and K-12 leadership, depth of experience teaching in early childhood or K-12, and school building leadership experience. In addition, candidates should demonstrate a depth of knowledge and experience with progressive pedagogies for both children and adults. Additional experience with district-level leadership is preferred.

Our Educational Leadership Programs are currently undergoing a strategic redesign to align with new NYS leadership certification requirements and to integrate our Progressive Leadership and Early Childhood tracks into a cohesive, multi-pathway model. In addition, we seek a candidate with an entrepreneurial mindset, broad understanding of the field of leadership preparation, and curriculum development expertise to cultivate new partnerships and, in collaboration with the Department Chair and leadership department faculty, lead a redesign that will support pathways for individuals seeking leadership positions in public, charter, private, and independent schools, and early childhood settings.

Bank Street College is not a tenure-granting institution, nor does it have traditional professorial ranks. The position is eligible for a renewable 3-year contract pending a review period.

Program Administrative Support

The Program Director role comprises 15% (increases depending on enrollment) of the position. There are several core aspects of the Program Director's job. These include, but are not limited to:

  • Program redesign in collaboration with the Department Chair and leadership department faculty, and completion of the NYS program revision application.
  • Ongoing review of program curriculum and support for curriculum revisions as needed.
  • Contributing to accreditation processes as needed.
  • Developing and liaising with partners.
  • Collaborating with a range of offices and divisions at the College, including the development office, Ed Center, alumni office, and others.
  • Coordinating onboarding of new students with the Enrollment Management Student Services team.
  • Organizing welcome events and outreach to new students.
  • Developing and maintaining relationships with partner schools and site supervisors.
  • Supporting the department chair in hiring and supporting adjuncts and fieldwork advisors.
  • Meeting regularly with the department chair and department leadership team.
  • Running monthly program meetings with fieldwork advisors.
  • Providing individualized academic guidance for students.
  • Gathering data from students and faculty to assess courses and programs to drive continuous program improvement.

Instructional Responsibilities

Courses in the Leadership Department are typically taught online from September through July, and instructors must be available to teach throughout this timeframe. Faculty teaching responsibilities may also include summer courses, in consultation with the Department Chair. One course is typically 15% of a faculty member’s load. We are looking for expertise across at least 2-3 of the following content areas:

  • Adult Development
  • Educational Law and / or Educational Policy
  • Leadership in Curriculum and Instruction in early childhood and / or K-12
  • Organizational Development
  • Reflective Supervision
  • Research
  • Transformational Leadership / Systems Change

Supervised Fieldwork Responsibilities

Some program directors also do field supervision of students during their internship experiences. The decision to do supervision fieldwork is made in consultation with the Department Chair.

Additional Responsibilities

All full-time faculty must engage in service to the community through committee work and participation in program, department, and divisional meetings (which are a mix of in-person and online meetings).

This position is primarily an online position but requires some in-person work at the College.

Skills required include:

  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
  • Flexibility and adaptability.
  • Strong organizational and administrative skills.
  • Strong skills in collaboration and communication; and demonstrated experience building successful partnerships.
  • Curriculum development skills.
  • Instructional proficiency in online and / or hybrid formats.

Qualifications:

  • Masters in education or educational leadership, required
  • Experience with public, charter, independent, and /or international schools, preferred
  • Certification in school building leadership, preferred
  • Doctorate in education leadership or related field, preferred
  • Five or more years of school leadership experience, preferred
  • School district leadership experience, preferred
  • Experience working with NYCPS, preferred
  • Experience and demonstrated success teaching in higher education, preferred
  • Experience with program administration, preferred

Applicants are encouraged to apply even if they do not meet all of the qualifications listed above.
