- Developing briefings, presentations, speaking notes, and other documents to support the President and advance the strategic priorities of the University.
- Developing positive, effective working relationships within and among areas across the university and identify opportunities for internal collaboration and consultation with faculties, schools, administrative units, and service areas.
- Raising urgent and/or sensitive issues while assessing options, implications, and risks, and providing recommendations to the Chief of Staff for consideration and/or decision-making.

You will have:

- Demonstrated knowledge and understanding of current principles and practice of strategic planning, project management, communications, issues management, and institutional effectiveness; particular experience in higher education and/or public sector preferred.
- Results-oriented quality with the ability to multitask, take initiative, demonstrate flexibility to adapt to changing situations and priorities and meet critical deadlines.
- Excellent oral and written communication skills, including the ability to communicate effectively with external and internal stakeholders at varying levels.
- Demonstrated political and business acumen, diplomacy, and tact when dealing with senior leaders, as well as other colleagues within and outside the institution.
