Administrative Services oversees multiple business hubs and Shared Service organizations throughout the University. Located within the Finance and Administration portfolio, the objective of the division is to provide efficient, strategic and specialized administrative services to support the missions of various departments, schools and colleges at the University of Oregon. Administrative Services focuses on department-specific budget, finance, payroll, human resources and procure to pay functions.

Administrative Services is a metric driven, people first administrative team that strives to create efficient, effective and sustainable administrative support structures across campus.

CUBM serves as the centralized business management, governance, and compliance team for the University of Oregon Alumni Association (UOAA), an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit that operates outside of University of Oregon systems and outside of central university offices such as Business Affairs, Treasury and Tax Services, and Purchasing and Contracting Services. Acting as a comprehensive business services partner, CUBM oversees the UOAA’s business operations, technology ecosystem, financial administration, governance, compliance, and risk management.

Because the UOAA operates independently, many functions typically provided by central university offices fall directly to CUBM. This requires specialized expertise, independent judgment, and oversight of business operations, financial stewardship, technology administration, regulatory compliance, and organizational governance. CUBM also supports the UOAA Board of Directors and ensures operational and compliance alignment across three interconnected organizations that share employees, partnerships, programs, and data.

CUBM also supports 42 chapters and network groups, including 26 regional chapters across 16 states, 4 international chapters spanning 5 countries, 2 professional groups, and 10 affinity groups. Managing this diverse national and international network requires navigating complex nonprofit, tax, financial, and regulatory requirements across multiple jurisdictions while maintaining strong governance and financial controls.

The UOAA Accounting Manager (Accounting Manager) plays a critical and senior role in ensuring the fiscal integrity of the University of Oregon Alumni Association (UOAA) by owning and managing the day-to-day accounting operations of the organization and serving as the principal technical accounting and financial advisor to UOAA leadership.
