Vice President for Global Enrollment Marketing and Strategic Communications

New York University seeks a strategically imaginative, analytical, and collaborative leader to serve as its next Vice President for Global Enrollment Marketing and Strategic Communications.

One of the largest private universities in the United States, NYU provides a rigorous education to more than 65,000 students and conducts $1.68 billion in research annually. Anchored in New York City and with degree-granting campuses in Abu Dhabi and Shanghai as well as 13 global academic centers worldwide, NYU consistently recruits undergraduate classes of growing size and academic strength. Students come from nearly every U.S. state and 133 countries. The University is an engine of social mobility, advances a broader mission to educate globally minded graduates, fosters resilience and purpose, and prepares students to contribute meaningfully to an increasingly complex and interconnected world.

Reporting to MJ Knoll-Finn, Senior Vice President for Global Enrollment, Student Success, and Strategic Positioning, the vice president will lead NYU's enrollment marketing and strategic communications efforts across the student lifecycle—from prospective student engagement through onboarding and into communications with enrolled students across its global network of three degree-granting portal campuses. In close partnership with the University's central brand leadership, the Vice President will oversee audience-focused brand and benchmarking research, translating insights into disciplined, data-informed marketing and communications strategies that strengthen positioning with prospective students, support graduate and undergraduate enrollment goals, and enhance the student experience through effective onboarding and ongoing engagement.

At the minimum, candidates will possess a bachelor's degree and substantial experience in marketing, communications or a related field. All applications, nominations, and inquiries are invited. Applications should include, as separate documents, a CV or résumé, and a letter of interest addressing the responsibilities and requirements described in the leadership profile which can be found at www.wittkieffer.com.
