Assistant Vice President for Life and Career Design
  • Wheaton College
  • Norton, MA FULL_TIME

  • Wheaton College in Massachusetts is conducting a national search for the inaugural Assistant Vice President for Life and Career Design. This is an exceptional opportunity for an innovative and entrepreneurial person to develop a cutting-edge program for students from orientation through graduation. Wheaton’s approach to Life and Career Design is a collaborative model with Student Affairs, Academic Affairs, and Advancement and Alumni Relations, to better meet the needs of the community.
    The AVP will guide the new Life and Career Design Institute, formerly career services, to develop programs and services for students incorporating internships, service learning, alumni and professional mentoring, and life design principles. The end goal being that all Wheaton students graduate with experiences which enhance career goals, a skill set, and a life plan methodology that they can use to make great choices throughout their lives.
    Reporting to the Vice President for Student Affairs and Dean of Students, the new Assistant Vice President for Life and Career Design is responsible for articulating the vision and mission of this area and will oversee all programs that will be organized developmentally around the student progression through their 4 years. The position will be highly collaborative with alumni relations and academic affairs, to engage faculty, alumni, parents, and the external business and not-for-profit communities to offer the Wheaton student exceptional opportunities.

    LIFE & CAREER DESIGN INSTITUTE
    The vision for the Life & Career Design Institute (LCDI) is to create a holistic experience for students fully integrated with the curriculum that engages all students with the life design method including a bias toward action and prototyping, an emphasis on self-awareness and reflection, and an awareness of the individual interplay of life, family, career, health, wellness, play, and other factors that shape a life of abundance.
    Within this framework, the LCDI will ensure that students have many touchpoints with experiential learning and career development. This will happen through work in the LCDI (internship placement, funding, Sophomore Experience, for example) but also through work in academic departments and classes that can be supported by the staff of the LCDI. Through a close collaboration between Student Affairs, Academic Affairs, and Advancement, our goal is for students to seamlessly integrate this work throughout their classes, student employment, student clubs, internships, and post-Wheaton planning.
    POSITION RESPONSIBILITIES/PRIORITIES
    • Provide effective and measurable career advising, career education and outreach programming and career exploration that encompasses internships and experiential educational opportunities. Provide entrepreneurial insight and innovation, utilizing formal and informal methods of life and career design.
    • Lead the institute with a framework of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging.
    • Strengthen and cultivate partnerships with employer representatives in business, industry, not for profit and education sectors and work collaboratively with area colleges. Streamline the process for posting new opportunities.
    • Collaborate with academic and student affairs in cultivating partnerships that offer experiential learning through curricular and co-curricular opportunities.
    • Work closely with colleagues in advancement and alumni relations, and annual giving to develop and implement mentoring, networking, internships and/or position shadowing opportunities by alumni for students.
    • Create a staffing and hiring plan, according to an outlined structure for the Life and Design Institute to provide sustained support for experiential learning.
