JOB DESCRIPTION

Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) seeks an accomplished, creative, and well-regarded leader to serve as its next Vice President and Chief Marketing and Communications Officer (VP CMCO). This is an exciting opportunity for a strategic thinker and effective leader to increase the national and global visibility of a truly distinctive STEM-focused university that produces purpose-driven high-impact research and has been the pioneer in project-based learning for more than 50 years. As a key strategic partner to President Grace Wang, the next VP CMCO will have the opportunity to showcase the university’s rich history, distinctive educational approach, impactful research and innovation, and highly immersive, inclusive campus environment; amplify its distinguished brand; and be a unifying voice at an innovative institution that is a leader in transformative education and research.

WPI faculty include fellows of professional societies, Fulbright Scholars, and 41 National Science Foundation Career Award winners. Annual research expenditures have tripled over the past decade and the university has received multiple national awards for educational innovation and global engagement. Approximately 65 percent of entering students had a high school GPA of 4.0 or higher. As the university builds on this momentum, the VP CMCO will help sustain and strengthen its standing among the nation’s leading institutions and advance its strategic goals.

The VP CMCO will bring the expertise, drive, and a creative and innovative spirit to articulate WPI’s distinctive identity and develop strategies that powerfully communicate the university’s outsized impact and unique educational experience, promote WPI’s research and innovation accomplishments, and elevate institutional brand awareness at a national and international level. With expert knowledge of both traditional and digital media, the VP CMCO will understand the changing nature of communications, marketing, media, and technology, and be able to communicate and engage diverse audiences within this rapidly evolving environment. A critical thinker with a keen understanding of academic culture, the VP CMCO will bring experience differentiating and tailoring communications for a variety of constituents in a concise, clear, and transparent manner.

Key experience will include building and leading teams, supporting and developing people, and implementing multi-faceted communications and marketing programs for an organization with many audiences. The VP CMCO must also have a collaborative and collegial nature, high emotional intelligence, and intercultural competence; and be committed to building relationships within a tight-knit university community. They will be intellectually curious and strive for excellence. They will be data driven, focused on the metrics, and capable of prioritization in a fast-paced environment.
