  • Several years of progressively responsible experience in post-secondary student services, accessibility services, exam administration, academic operations, or a comparable complex service environment.
  • Demonstrated knowledge of disability accommodation principles, duty to accommodate, accessibility, privacy, confidentiality, and equitable student service in a post-secondary environment.

  • Demonstrated experience supervising staff, including recruitment, onboarding, training, scheduling, coaching, performance management, and conflict resolution.
  • Ability to manage large casual staffing complements and complex shift schedules in a high-volume, deadline-driven environment.
  • Strong operational planning skills, including the ability to anticipate demand, assess capacity, allocate resources, manage competing priorities, and respond effectively to urgent issues.
  • Excellent judgment and decision-making skills, particularly in situations involving student accommodations, academic integrity, instructor expectations, privacy, and institutional risk.
