Dedicated to offering diverse learning experiences that develop students as engaged, socially conscious citizens, SUNY Cortland has emerged as a regional powerhouse, offering academic strength across 68 majors and a high-quality experience to its students. To help the institution build on these strengths, SUNY Cortland seeks a thoughtful, diplomatic, and highly organized professional to serve as chief of staff to President Erik Bitterbaum. Reporting directly to the president, the next COS will serve as a trusted advisor on myriad projects and initiatives that will assist the college in maintaining its upward trajectory. Located on a 191-acre campus in the heart of New York's Finger Lakes region, SUNY Cortland serves approximately 7,000 undergraduate and graduate students and boasts more than 600 faculty. As a leading public comprehensive college, Cortland provides an outstanding and affordable education that empowers students to achieve their goals and make meaningful contributions to their communities.

Apart from advising the president on strategic planning, decision-making, and problem-solving, the chief of staff also works closely with senior leadership and campus committees to advance the president's agenda, foster collaboration, and oversee high-level operations, projects, and special initiatives. The COS uses data to identify trends, opportunities, and risks in the competitive landscape; builds consensus around policy; coordinates projects and initiatives addressing priorities; communicates overall strategy to the broader community; and tracks performance. The COS also fields issues that come to the President's Office, advises on responses, and organizes solutions to ensure successful outcomes. In addition, the COS works closely with the strategic communications team to ensure consistent, high-quality messaging from the president and serves as a liaison to SUNY Cortland stakeholders to ensure accurate and consistent communication in a way that facilitates transparency. In its next chief of staff, SUNY Cortland seeks a professional with a deep knowledge of higher education and the ability to understand and connect with a wide range of constituents. The selected candidate will have a minimum of five years of higher education experience with a track record of problem solving, strategic planning, policy communication, and project management.
