former, and prospective students; parents; advisors; faculty; college administration; peer student support units; regulators, among others. This role does not exist at Northeastern today and is being created to affirm, within the Provost's academic and student services portfolio, that student experience is not a function - it is the center of everything we do and how we do it. It brings a singular focus on service excellence across the academic and student service portfolio in the global network, amplifying and advancing work in ServiceNow, including continuing to expand the AI chatbot and related functionality, service assessment, and SLA frameworks. Students at Charlotte, Silicon Valley, Vancouver, and London, for example, have different needs, different compliance contexts, and different campus cultures. This leader owns the design, consistency, and continuous improvement of the academic and student services portfolio. The Global Director of Global Service Experience leads the four cluster Sr. Associate Registrars (Boston, NYC, Oakland, London) who are the front-facing registrar presence for students and other populations they serve, as well as the network-wide service team that supports former and prospective students as well as other stakeholders.

Lead and develop the four cluster Sr. Associate Registrars, providing strategic direction, operational support, and professional development.

Partner with the Registrar for Global Operations to ensure cluster teams have the operational knowledge, tools, and support they need to serve students effectively - including an embedded rotation model in which cluster service staff are periodically placed within central specialist teams as an experiential approach to building deep institutional knowledge. Build bench depth across the cluster network - developing generalist registrar capability that grows into future leadership roles across the institution and the field Identify and escalate structural barriers to student service - including cross-office coordination failures, policy gaps, and technology limitations - with solutions, both short and longer term. Represent the student service function in senior leadership conversations, contributing a clear and data-informed point of view on what students need and what the network is and isn't delivering. Minimum Qualifications: Master's degree required in any field; equivalent combination of advanced education and demonstrated leadership in service design and excellence, customer/student experience, or operational management, or related. 7+ years of progressive leadership experience in service design, delivery, and assessment aimed at continuous service enhancements, or related, preferably in a global and multi-point of service context.
