About the Role

The Company is seeking a Provost to lead its unified academic and student life enterprise. The successful candidate will be responsible for providing strategic vision and operational leadership across all academic programs, curriculum development, faculty affairs, student life, and student success. This role is pivotal in ensuring that educational and student life priorities align with the broader mission of the institutions. The Provost will also be a champion for the core academic community, overseeing faculty and deep collaboration with student affairs colleagues. Key responsibilities include maintaining academic quality and integrity, supporting faculty scholarship and development, and advancing student retention and completion goals. Candidates for the Provost position at the company should be prepared to uphold and advance the Catholic and Benedictine mission of the institutions while fostering academic excellence and innovation. The role requires a leader with strategic foresight, strong communication skills, and the ability to inspire confidence and collaboration.

Direct oversight of key leadership positions in curriculum and assessment, faculty, and student academic success is also a critical aspect of the role. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record in educational leadership, a deep commitment to the values of the institutions, and the ability to nurture a strong academic community across the two campuses.
