Chair - Victoria, Canada - Camosun College
Description
A) JOB SUMMARYThe Chair is a leader among faculty peers and a key member of the school Leadership Team.
Under the direction of the Dean/Director, the Chair is responsible for the educational leadership and operation of a department.
As such, the Chair maintains academic excellence in the department and fosters the highest possible standards of teaching, scholarship, service, and student advising.
The Chair also inspires a vision, focus and direction to ensure the quality of the program(s) and leads the faculty in matters of curriculum, planning, assessment, and student affairs.
The Chair coordinates and supports the personal and professional talents of faculty members and ensures they are functioning as an effective team.
B) REPORTING RELATIONSHIPSThis position is responsible to the Dean/Director.
Faculty members of a department report directly to the Chair on operational matters including work assignments and student issues. This position may also be responsible for leading and supervising departmental support staff positions.
C) TYPICAL JOB FUNCTIONS
Additionally, the Chair may represent or act as the Dean/Director and may undertake initiatives as assigned by the Dean/Director or, upon occasion, the Vice President.
Qualifications MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:
Capabilities College Capabilities:
As a member of the college community with responsibilities to enable the achievement of college-wide strategic objectives, the Chair will demonstrate the three core and three leadership capabilities identified in the College's Capability Framework:
Focus on Students and Their Success (Core)
We all have a role to play in promoting and supporting students - directly or indirectly - contributing to their success, education and transition as they build their path to the future.
Cultural Alignment (Core)Inclusion and respect align with Camosun's traditions of lifelong learning and positive, supportive experiences for all.
We examine our individual and institutional cultures and, through indigenization, consider other ways of knowing (thinking), being (approaches), doing (acting), and relating.
Fostering and Nurturing Relationships (Core)Fostering and nurturing relationships is at the core of everything we do. Successful workplace relationships take time to develop and include building trust, engagement and collaboration.
Address College Needs (Leadership)
In order to address college needs leaders recognize and respond to the complex, diverse and interdependent components. Leaders inspire others to work individually and collaboratively to achieve departmental/divisional, college and sectoral goals.
Enable Self & Others (Leadership)
To better serve students and the college to achieve success, leaders enable self and others to take responsibility and to participate in learning and development opportunities.
Create Time and Space (Leadership)To be at our best and achieve organizational goals, we need both time and space. Time and space as a unitary concept promotes opportunities to listen, plan, think, create, innovate and develop relationships.
