The University of Saskatchewan (USask) is seeking a Principal for the Prince Albert Campus. Candidates who currently hold a tenured position at the rank of associate professor or professor at the University of Saskatchewan are invited to apply. This appointment is being made initially for two years.

The University of Saskatchewan Prince Albert campus hub which was opened in 2020 marked a significant milestone in the University of Saskatchewan's commitment to Indigenous and northern education. The campus provides expanded learning opportunities and world-class research initiatives to communities in northern Saskatchewan. As the university looks to the future and reflects on the history of USask in Prince Albert, it is crucial to build on the progress made by appointing a dedicated Principal to lead the campus's continued growth, and the contribution of the campus to USask’s vision:

We will contribute to a sustainable future by being among the best in the world in areas of special and emerging strengths, through outstanding research, scholarly, and artistic work that addresses the needs and aspirations of our region and the world, and through exceptional teaching and engagement. We will be an outstanding institution of research, learning, knowledge-keeping, reconciliation, and inclusion with and by Indigenous peoples and communities.

As a key leader at the University of Saskatchewan, the Principal is a member of the Provost and Vice-President Academic’s Team. The principal is a champion of the PA Campus and will raise the profile of the activity and the people in this location. Reporting directly to the Deputy Provost, the principal will have three core responsibilities, to be achieved within the two years of appointment:

This plan will facilitate the campus's growth and expansion in research, teaching, and engagement. Campus Development Plan: The principal will oversee the development of a plan that addresses the campus's physical infrastructure, resources, and technology needs, ensuring a conducive learning and research environment. Formalize relationships with the city and communities: The Principal will forge a formalized partnership with the city of Prince Albert, fostering collaborative initiatives and mutually beneficial programs that contribute to the overall development of both the campus and the community; and continue to build and expand existing community partnerships to advance research, learning, knowledge-keeping, reconciliation, and inclusion with and by Indigenous peoples and communities.

The Principal portfolio intersects with all academic and support units across USask. As such, close partnerships are required to support a holistic and sustainable research, teaching, and learning environment.

As the ideal candidate, you will possess an exemplary academic record as an educator and researcher. You will have demonstrated administrative and leadership experience with superior relationship-building skills. Demonstrated success in developing and implementing a plan and leading people to achieve exemplary performance and outcomes is essential. A high level of proficiency in relationship-building competencies is vital.
