Job Description

Stanford's Graduate School of Business (GSB) has built a global reputation based on its immersive and innovative management programs. We provide students a transformative leadership experience, pushing the boundaries of knowledge with faculty research, and offering a portfolio of entrepreneurial and non-degree programs that deliver global impact. We invite you to be part of our mission of developing innovative, principled, and insightful leaders who change lives, change organizations, and change the world.

Success at the GSB is defined by The GSB Way - a commitment to shared purpose, community, and excellence in all that we do. We seek individuals who elevate themselves and those around them through the practice of academic candor, generous collaboration, and bringing curiosity and rigor to solving meaningful problems. At the GSB, impact means taking ownership, and contributing to a purpose-driven, collaborative, and high-performing community in service to the institution’s mission.

The MBA & MSx Programs at the Stanford Graduate School of Business seeks an experienced professional to serve as Associate Director, Strategy & Curricular Support. This role is responsible for the development and management of programs for the GSB students, giving the successful candidate the opportunity to manage and evolve one or more of the programs that are central to the student academic experience. The portfolio of programs will be shaped by the needs of the department and the strengths of the successful candidate, with the expectation that responsibilities can evolve over time.

In addition to program development and management, the Associate Director will serve as an academic advisor to a cohort of students, guiding them to meet Program requirements. The advising portion of the role involves working collaboratively with the team of academic advisors; developing in-depth knowledge of GSB courses and degree requirements, curriculum structure, faculty and student needs, and the policies, processes, and resources available at the GSB. Insights gained through advising will in turn inform program management and continual improvement of the student experience.

To succeed in this role, you will have a proven track record of successfully developing, launching and managing programs. The ideal candidate will successfully perform data and quantitative analysis and translate data insights into opportunities and persuasive narratives for key stakeholders. Through exceptional communication skills and workstream ownership, you will drive results and creative solutions. An MBA (or demonstrated equivalent experience) is strongly preferred. Those successful in this role will require a flexible mindset to navigate special projects as assigned.

Duties unique to this position:

  • Develop and manage co-curricular program(s) that are central to the GSB student academic experience.
  • Advise students using excellent judgment and ability with navigating the grey zone.

  • Direct and/or supervise staff as needed.

This position is hybrid with the expectation of being onsite 4-5 days per week.

The budgeted salary for this position is $135,000 to $155,000 annualized.

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

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
