Vice President Enrollment Management
The Opportunity
Averett University (AU) seeks an agile, energetic, and entrepreneurial leader to serve as its next Vice President for Enrollment Management (VPEM). This is an opportunity for an innovative enrollment leader to join the university’s senior leadership team and help position Averett for sustained strength and success in a changing higher education landscape.
The VPEM role has been expanded to encompass the recruitment and enrollment of both traditional, in-person students and online students.

A key priority for the VPEM will be evaluating and further developing the functionality of Averett Central while strengthening the student experience and creating greater alignment across enrollment services. The VPEM will also lead efforts to grow traditional undergraduate enrollment and expand Averett’s online student offerings.
