Redeemer University is a dynamic undergraduate university recognized for providing quality undergraduate education in the arts, humanities, natural sciences, social sciences, business, and education, with a demonstrated commitment to fostering a spiritually vibrant and caring community of learning. The scholarship, teaching, and creative activity of our faculty, combined with small class sizes and low student-faculty ratios, create an engaging academic environment.

- With a reduced teaching load, teach courses in one of the academic programs in the Social Sciences area, and possibly in the Core.

**Preferred Skills and Attributes**:

- A mature personal faith in Jesus Christ, a deep understanding and personal conviction of the Reformed Christian worldview, and an ability to integrate and support the integration of faith in and learning in a Christian post-secondary context.
- A terminal degree in a social sciences discipline and able to teach courses in one of the programs offered in Redeemer’s Social Sciences area (psychology, social work, sociology).
- Ten years’ experience as an effective member of the faculty in an undergraduate liberal arts context.
- Five or more years’ experience in an academic leadership position with oversight of program and/or faculty, such as department/division chair, director, associate dean or dean.
- Superior oral, interpersonal and written communication skills, including the ability to communicate with faculty, students, potential students, and other internal stakeholders.
- Exceptional people skills, including the ability to motivate faculty and staff members and create a relational and collaborative environment.

**The Application Process**:
In addition to these materials, applicants must include a 1-page to 2-page document describing their own Christian faith commitment and practice, its alignment with Redeemer’s mission and its impact on their academic and professional work. A range of qualifications will be evaluated, including distinguishing characteristics that demonstrate congruence with Redeemer’s identity as a university in the Protestant and particularly Reformed Christian tradition. Applications are welcome from both faculty internal and external to Redeemer. The preferred start date is June 1, 2025, but a later date can be negotiated.

Salary is dependent upon experience and qualifications. Redeemer offers an excellent benefits package, including a pension plan, insurance, and medical/dental coverage. Vacation is generous, starting at four weeks. Professional development, both discipline-specific and administrative, is available.
