<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><a href="https://jobs.colorado.edu/jobs/JobDetail/Executive-Director-Sustainability-Research-Initiative/59313">https://jobs.colorado.edu/jobs/JobDetail/Executive-Director-Sustainability-Research-Initiative/59313</a><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The University of Colorado Boulder (CU Boulder) is at the forefront of addressing the increasing and accelerating environmental challenges of our time. CU Boulder is setting ambitious new goals to achieve national prominence and thought
leadership in climate action and sustainability, aiming to drive a significant impact on society. Central to these goals is the enhancement and expansion of the university’s robust research portfolio in sustainability and resilience. This position will help
enable researchers to grow the impact of sustainability research both locally and globally.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Sustainability Research Initiative (SRI) supports the university’s sustainability goals by fostering and coordinating research through a comprehensive, interdisciplinary approach that brings to bear knowledge from diverse academic departments,
centers, and institutes. The SRI is a key strategic priority for the university, and the Executive Director will be essential in guiding its strategic direction to align with the university's overall sustainability research objectives. This includes cultivating
key internal and external partnerships and securing substantial external funding from government, industry, and philanthropic sources to support the development of innovative solutions through research, commercialization, and deployment. The Executive Director
will be expected to diversify SRI’s funding to ensure its long-term impact and financial stability through a combination of grants, endowments, and multi-year commitments with key partners. This role will focus on expanding sustainability research at CU Boulder
by supporting inclusive interdisciplinary research, accelerating the careers of CU faculty and researchers, and engaging key partners in strategic planning.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This position will lead the strategic development and operational management of the Initiative. This role requires a dynamic leader capable of integrating diverse academic and cultural perspectives, collaborating with external partners,
and elevating CU Boulder’s visibility and impact in sustainability research and practice worldwide. The Executive Director will report directly to the Vice Chancellor for Research & Innovation (VCRI), with a dotted line to the inaugural Vice Chancellor for
Sustainability (VCS).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Sustainability at CU Boulder</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">CU Boulder seeks to build upon its 50+ year legacy of leadership in sustainability. More than 300 faculty members are engaged in sustainability-related research across 69 departments, representing two-thirds of all departments. The university
ranks among the top 10 in the nation in funding for environmental research. CU Boulder earth sciences and atmospheric science are ranked #1 and #2 in the world, respectively, according to the 2023 Global Ranking of Academic Subjects by ShanghaiRanking.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">CU Boulder has consistently been a pioneer in sustainability and environmental initiatives, such as the first student-led Environmental Center, campus-wide recycling program, and a carbon-neutral student government. The university was also
the first to achieve a STARS Gold rating and aims for STARS Platinum. Our Sustainability Executive Council drives action toward carbon neutrality, with significant projects like the East Campus solar array and an 18-building efficiency initiative. CU Boulder
fosters environmental stewardship and innovation through community engagement and annual events like the Campus Sustainability Summit.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The University of Colorado Boulder is committed to building a culturally diverse community of faculty, staff, and students dedicated to contributing to an inclusive campus environment. We are an Equal Opportunity employer, including veterans
and individuals with disabilities.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Who We Are<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">RIO is the central point for support and advocacy for CU Boulder’s world-class scholarship, creative work, and growing research enterprise. We are focused on creating global impact by cultivating and supporting collaboration, transformation
and leadership. At the heart of this focus are the diverse contributions of a wide range of world-class experts, working together to accelerate ideas throughout the entire innovation lifecycle. We endeavor to embody CU Boulder's commitment to exemplify excellence
through diversity by creating a welcoming and inclusive environment, enhancing the success and inclusion of all students, staff and faculty, and deepening our ability to share and engage with diverse perspectives.<o:p></o:p></p>
