The Vancouver Campus of The University of British Columbia (UBC) is located on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) people.

The School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture (SALA) within the Faculty of Applied Science at UBC invites applications for the next Director of the School. The successful candidate should qualify for appointment at the rank of Full Professor with tenure in the School. They must bring a clear vision of the opportunities and challenges ahead for SALA, as well as the ability to inspire a diverse range of people in the evolution of the School’s vision to align with the Faculty of Applied Science’s strategic priorities and develop implementation strategies for the goals that support the vision. The anticipated start date is January 1st, 2025, or as mutually agreed.

The Director will serve as a key member of the Faculty’s leadership team and will have overall responsibility for academic leadership and administration in the School. The Director will be a dedicated, visionary and collaborative academic leader with a distinguished record in teaching and research, a deep commitment to educational programs, and a strong commitment to engaging with the professional community as well as an unwavering dedication to advancing the principles of equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) and Indigenization and Reconciliation. The successful candidate should have experience recruiting and mentoring excellent faculty, experience leading and managing change in a university, demonstrated leadership abilities, and proven skills in management, communication, consensus-building, advocacy, and strategic planning in an academic context. Candidates will hold a terminal degree in Architecture, Landscape Architecture, or Urban Design (PhD, or Master of Architecture, Master of Landscape Architecture, Master of Urban Design).

As part of the University’s response to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action, UBC has begun to implement its Indigenous Strategic Plan, taking a leading role in the advancement of Indigenous peoples’ human rights. The ideal candidate will therefore have a demonstrated commitment to advancing reconciliation with Indigenous peoples and contribute to the Indigenous strategic plan for the Faculty of Applied Science.

Applications should consist of a full CV detailing academic and professional qualifications and relevant achievements. It should be accompanied by a cover letter describing how the candidate meets the qualifications, why the appointment is of interest, and what they believe they can bring to the role.

Equity and diversity are essential to academic excellence. An open and diverse community fosters the inclusion of voices that have been underrepresented or discouraged. We encourage applications from members of groups that have been marginalized on any grounds enumerated under the B.C. Human Rights Code, including sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, racialization, disability, political belief, religion, marital or family status, age, and/or status as a First Nation, Metis, Inuit, or Indigenous person. All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however Canadians and permanent residents of Canada will be given priority.
