Associate Dean for Enrollment Management and Student Success

Bank Street College of Education, a national leader in progressive education and an advocate for strengths-based, learner-centered, and equitable education for all, seeks an inaugural Associate Dean for Enrollment Management and Student Success (“ADEM”). Serving as the Chief Enrollment Officer and reporting directly to the Dean of the Graduate School, this is a critical new role at Bank Street, wherein the successful hire will be responsible for driving enrollment growth, codifying enrollment related systems and processes, strategically leveraging financial aid and marketing dollars, and unifying disparate units under one comprehensive enrollment management and student success office.  

For more than a century, Bank Street has led the charge to place student needs at the center of practice and policy in the field of education, and its Graduate School of Education has been central to this work, preparing exceptional educators and leaders to enter the world ready to make a difference in classrooms, schools, and communities. Serving more than 600 students a year, but with a hope to increase the total to more than 800 in coming years, the Graduate School’s current academic portfolio is inclusive of on-campus master’s degree programs, online programs, and custom partnership programs. As a result, Bank Street seeks a collaborative, innovative, and seasoned enrollment leader to stabilize and grow enrollment and provide a coherent, unifying vision for how the school’s enrollment management functions, inclusive of admissions, registrar, financial aid, and student services, will work seamlessly together to enroll and support Bank Street students going forward. 

The ADEM will be an experienced leader who brings a deep knowledge of data-driven enrollment management strategies, innovative marketing and recruitment techniques, and a strong understanding of the graduate school enrollment and higher education landscapes. With a strong commitment to social justice and progressive education, the inaugural ADEM will collaboratively create a more cohesive approach to enrollment management and student services to position Bank Street to navigate a complex and competitive future.

The target salary range for this role is $170,000 to $190,000 and will be commensurate with experience. Confidential inquiries, nominations, and applications (including resume and cover letter) should be sent electronically in confidence below.
