Assistant Director

Brandeis Hillel

Role Overview

Brandeis Hillel seeks an Assistant Director: a strategic, relational, and operationally capable leader who will serve as a central figure in the day-to-day life of one of the most distinctive Jewish communities in American higher education.

This is an extraordinary opportunity to grow into senior leadership at a singular institution. Brandeis has the highest percentage of Jewish students of any nonsectarian university outside of Israel, approximately 1,200 students in a close-knit, academically serious community that is simultaneously the most diverse and most Jewishly affiliated student body in the country. There is no other campus quite like it.

The Assistant Director works in close partnership with the Executive Director, sharing responsibility for operations, programmatic excellence, and building a high-performing staff team. This role is well-suited to an experienced professional who is ready to take on significant responsibility and grow into senior organizational leadership.

This is also a moment of organizational transformation. Without a dedicated home of our own, much of Hillel's operational energy goes into coordinating space, logistics, and university relationships, work that requires creativity, persistence, and strong institutional partnerships. The Assistant Director will be a central part of navigating that reality and helping to build what comes next: Brandeis Hillel is in the midst of a $25 million Campaign for the Future of Jewish Life, which will fund the renovation of an existing building on campus into a dedicated Center for Jewish Life and Leadership -- work that is expected to begin in the coming months.

What You’ll Do

Student Life and Engagement

• Set vision for and oversee the execution of Brandeis Hillel's student engagement strategy, grounded in a commitment to breadth, depth, and belonging across the diversity of the Brandeis Jewish community.
