The University of Nevada, Las Vegas invites applications for *REVISED* Director of Recruitment, Undergraduate Admissions [R0134512]
ROLE of the POSITION
UNLV Office of Admissions is excited to invite applicants for the role of Director of Recruitment. Reporting to the Assistant Vice President for Undergraduate Admissions and Financial Aid Services (AVP), the Director of Recruitment (Director) provides the leadership, direction, coordination, and evaluation for all aspects of undergraduate and graduate recruitment for the Office of Admissions. Under the leadership and direction of the AVP, the Director will work closely with departments and colleges within the University, to provide a coordinated, cohesive approach to recruitment that promotes a unified and strategic model and develops a national and international brand. The Director will:
  • In coordination with appropriate units, work to enhance the institution’s outreach to Clark County’s K-12 and community college students. This position plays an important role in institutional efforts to increase access to higher education in general throughout the state, even when the student is considering other schools.
  • Develop and implement strategies to recruit online learners and those seeking certificates and training for workforce development while creating pathways for degrees.
  • In coordination with appropriate units, work to expand UNLV’s transfer pipelines both domestically (both in-state and out-of-state) and internationally through strategic partnerships and enhanced transfer pathways and processes.
  • Determine and direct recruitment and outreach activities. Both to help achieve coverage, and to be an active participant in the work s/he leads, the Director will oversee and participate in on-campus and off-campus programs, when necessary.
  • Ensure development and maintenance of the University’s recruitment/outreach plan for new undergraduate and graduate students and its alignment with, and successful execution of, the strategic mission and goals of the University. Working with the AVP and the Sr. Vice Provost for Academic Affairs, the Director will foster the ongoing growth of the University’s recruitment priorities of both domestic (in-state and out-of-state) and international students, including market priority-setting, special programs both off-campus and on-campus, and budget considerations.
  • Directly supervise the work of 3 full time staff, including the leadership for undergraduate, graduate and online enrollment. The Director’s direct reports supervise the work of approximately 30 additional full time staff, who are divided by direct responsibility for specific targeted markets/demographics for recruitment. It is imperative that this highly capable staff is given strong support in prioritizing their efforts in travel, territory management, communication and marketing.
  • Use creative approaches to re-recruit students at both the graduate and undergraduate levels who have dropped out or stopped out and encourage and assist in finding pathways to degree completion.
The Director is instrumental in directing the development of a comprehensive strategic and operational recruitment plan used to attract and retain a diverse student body and maintain UNLVs diversity rankings. The Director will supervise the assessment of recruitment initiatives and will use admissions and enrollment data to meet immediate and long-range enrollment objectives.
