DIRECTOR - INTERNATIONAL BUREAU - ACCC

Reporting to the Executive Director, this senior position is responsible for providing
leadership to a group of approximately 35 professionals and support staff who, together

with the National Program staff, have made ACCC one of Canada’s leading non-governmental
organizations. The Director will work closely with college executives in supporting member
institutions’ international goals; politicians and senior government officials in

understanding and responding to international programs and potential projects; and with
colleagues around the world in responding to their needs and creating links with our

membership.

Given the breadth of the task, the appropriate individual will have a demonstrated ability
to work at senior planning levels, and to develop responsive international programs. The
incumbent will probably have extensive administrative experience in a Canadian college or
institute and will certainly have a record of entrepreneurship. Experience in working with
one of the international financial institutions or a major international aid agency is
important.

Working in an extremely demanding role, the incumbent must combine international
experience, a knowledge of our institutional base, administrative skills of a high order
and human relations skills that are consistent not only with the requirements of a member
service organization, but one that works in the sensitivities of an international setting.
Extensive national and international travel is a requirement.

In exchange for long working hours, a demanding travel schedule, and the ambiguities
inherent in balancing competing priorities, this job offers to the right person a most
exciting opportunity to make a significant contribution at both the national and
international levels while working with a very skilled team in the Secretariat.

The incumbent will require fluency in both of Canada’s official languages.
Appointment Date - June 30, 1988

Salary/Benef its: - $65,000 range plus a comprehensive benefits package

Secondment proposals are welcome - 3 year minimum availability.
