This position oversees the infrastructure, systems, and processes that support the delivery of student wellness services, ensuring the center operates efficiently, compliantly, and in alignment with institutional priorities.

The Associate Director focuses entirely on operations, administration, and resource management. The role does not provide clinical services or make treatment decisions.

It does not require clinical licensure, does not provide patient care, does not supervise clinical practice, and does not establish or approve clinical protocols. All clinical decision making, supervision of clinical staff, and oversight of patient care remain the responsibility of licensed clinical professionals.

• Bachelor's degree in healthcare administration, public health, business administration, higher education administration, or a related field.
• Minimum 5 years of experience in operations, administration, or management, preferably in healthcare, higher education, or a related service environment.
