Paul Smith’s College is dedicated to preparing students for leadership in meaningful careers, creating sustainable communities, and fostering a resilient planet. Its immersive, experiential approach blends academic rigor with real-world application in one of the most beautiful, inspiring, and ecologically rich regions in the country.

Position Overview

The Dean of Work at Paul Smith's College directs a comprehensive Work Experience Program, aligning campus employment with hands-on academic curricula. This is a newly created position in response to the recently expanded Work Experience Program at Paul Smith’s College. This 12-month administrator will manage campus-wide work placements, evaluate student and work crew performance, and partner with a variety of campus operations and institutes.

The Dean of Work provides strategic and operational leadership for all student labor and experiential work programs across the college's 13,000-acre Adirondack campus. This role ensures that student employment serves as a vital co-curricular touchstone, fostering work ethic, professional competency, and financial self-reliance. This cabinet-level position reports directly to the Office of the President.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Program Strategy & Development: Design and scale a unified student work program blending operational campus needs (e.g., forestry, culinary, hospitality, and research) with intentional learning outcomes. The program design will follow Federal Work College regulations.
  • Operations & Placement: Oversee placement, tracking, and evaluation of student workers in partnership with campus work crew supervisors.
  • Assessment: Monitor student labor performance and retention impact. Oversee the development and implementation of a student Work Transcript.
  • Budget & Compliance: Manage student employment budgets, and adherence to federal/state labor standards.
  • Community Partnerships: Cultivate internal and external partnerships to expand meaningful micro-credentialing and hands-on skill acquisition.
  • Enterprise Development: Develop external-facing student enterprises in collaboration with the Office of Strategic Initiatives.

Qualifications:

  • Education: Master’s degree in Higher Education Administration, Business Management, Student Affairs, or related field (Doctorate preferred).
  • Experience: Minimum 7–10 years of progressive leadership in higher education, experiential education, or operational management. The ideal candidate would have prior experience at a federally recognized Work College.
  • Skills: Strong understanding of student development theory, labor management, budget oversight, and small-campus operations.
  • Attributes: Deep appreciation for hands-on, place-based education within a rural, residential forest setting.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
