THE OPPORTUNITY
Ohio Wesleyan seeks a Vice President for Advancement and Strategic Ventures who is ready to step into one of the most expansive and consequential advancement roles in liberal arts higher education.
President Dr. Matt vanden
Berg, himself a veteran of advancement leadership including service as Vice President for Advancement and External Relations at Alma College, has intentionally redesigned this portfolio to reflect a fundamental conviction: that the boundaries between philanthropy, strategic partnerships, entrepreneurship, and revenue generation are artificial, and that the leader who can move fluidly across all of them will create extraordinary value for the institution and the community it serves.
The VP for Advancement and Strategic Ventures will serve as a senior member of the President's cabinet, reporting directly to the President. This officer will lead a comprehensive portfolio spanning the full breadth of institutional advancement alongside a set of strategic venture responsibilities that reflect the full ambition of OWU's vision.
The timing is extraordinary. OWU enters this search with record philanthropic momentum, enrollment growth, a bold and proven strategic plan, a transformative comprehensive campaign on the horizon, and a pipeline of partnerships and ventures that require exactly the kind of creative, entrepreneurial advancement leadership this role demands.
