Sea Education Association (SEA), www.sea.edu, invites applications for a full-time President.
This is a hybrid position. The successful candidate will be available to work on campus in Woods Hole (Falmouth), Massachusetts.
SEA, a nonprofit, and an interdisciplinary experiential education organization dedicated to studying the oceans, seeks a bold, visionary leader and strategic thinker to serve as its next President.
SEA is an equal opportunity employer and strongly encourages applications from people of color, persons with disabilities, women, and LGBTQ+ candidates. SEA is committed to the development of a multicultural environment. We value input of multiple viewpoints and perspectives across the organization; our goal is to create an academic and working community that is rich in cultural, social and intellectual diversity.
Over the past 50+ years, SEA has taken more than 10,000 college, gap year, and high school students on transformative educational journeys of discovery—to explore in Woods Hole and by tall ship to understand the world’s oceans and maritime environments while simultaneously developing decision-making, team building, communication, and leadership skills.
SEA works to inform worldwide marine stewardship and policy and inspire the next generation of ocean scholars, stewards, and leaders through its educational programs, research, and collaborative partnerships. This is an exciting and unique opportunity to lead an organization with global impact, and to do so on an intimate scale amid a culture that prioritizes collaboration and teamwork. The President serves as the chief executive officer and will be responsible for providing transformative leadership to promote SEA’s mission and vision while ensuring the vitality of the operating model.
SEA is amid an exciting post-pandemic expansion encompassing program innovation with a focus on shore-based undergraduate offerings and high school programming, and with a renewed energy for cross-institutional partnerships. The next President will accelerate these programmatic directions, bring fresh energy and execution to SEA’s philanthropic endeavors, work collaboratively with the SEA Senior Management Group and Trustees to increase SEA’s fundraising, and develop and implement the next five-year plan. Additionally, the next President will expand the scope and impact of the organization’s research, outreach, and innovative programming at sea aboard tall ships, on shore, and online.
The successful candidate will provide the support and resources needed to retain its faculty and staff of approximately 100 (including sea-going staff); continue to advance SEA’s dedication to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI); and ensure the organization’s human and fiscal resources are well managed. The President needs to be able to navigate the space where scientists, scholars, educators, advocates, and policy makers interact to make positive change for the future of the oceans.
THE ROLE OF THE PRESIDENT
Reporting to the Board of Trustees, the President is accountable for educational, marine, fiscal, communications, development, and operating activities. These include: to ensure safety, quality, and efficiency of operations and educational programs; to raise funds and manage financial resources; to foster increased enrollment; to develop and empower staff; to advance and expand SEA’s academic reputation and visibility with colleges and universities it serves and wishes to serve, the scientific community, foundations, and donors; to maintain and enhance SEA’s global impact; and to ensure long-term institutional sustainability. The President’s role is outward and future focused as the face of SEA. The person filling this role will build and maintain relationships and networks that will propel the organization forward while garnering the resources needed to thrive. The President is a steward of the organization’s culture and commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion and inspires all in the SEA community to advance its mission. The President, in conjunction with the Board, defines and maintains SEA’s long range planning goals, advises the Board and Members in matters relating to their responsibilities, and assists the Chair in determining the content of all Board meetings. The President’s senior management group (SMG) consists of the Academic Dean, Director of Marine Operations, Dean of Enrollment Management, Director of Development, and Dean of Finance and Administration. The President works with:
The Academic Dean to assure the overall quality of the educational programs, develop innovative new courses and programs, and review and approve recommendations for full-time faculty appointments.
