Dean, La Trobe Business School
La Trobe University is a Victorian university where inclusion and vision produce real-world impact, through world-class research, strong industry partnerships, expanding access to higher education, and relentless focus on student success and career outcomes. Across seven campuses, it remains committed to its founding mission to expand the life-changing opportunities afforded by higher education to everyone and especially people from equity backgrounds.
This is a significant appointment for the La Trobe Business School (LBS) as it looks to the future at a time of great transition across the global business education sector. Leveraging substantial existing AI expertise and substantial strategic partnerships with industry, the school will adopt an AI-First approach with a vision to be the leading business school for AI in Australia.
LBS is guided by the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the UN Principles for Responsible Management Education, and with education and research partnerships in China, Germany, India, Singapore, Vietnam, Sri Lanka and the United Kingdom, it is uniquely positioned to deliver innovative solutions and act on opportunities that impact and benefit business and society.
The Dean will lead LBS (composed of the Department of Accounting, Data Analytics, Economics and Finance and the Department of Management and Marketing) to identify and develop new opportunities for interaction between the University, the world of business and the broader community. With a passion for innovation, differentiation and excellence the Dean will engage academic colleagues, business partners and students in realising those opportunities. They will be responsible for driving forward an AI-First approach, and continuing to grow the positive social impact and leadership of LBS.
Dynamic, self-motivated candidates with strong leadership credentials will bring experience of developing relationships and driving sustainable growth in similar strategic and operational contexts.
