Associate Vice President of Campus Auxiliary Services
Montclair State University

Montclair State University (Montclair) invites inquiries, nominations, and applications for the position of Associate Vice President of Campus Auxiliary Services (AVP). This is a unique opportunity for a seasoned leader to steer the big-picture strategy of auxiliary services, with the goal of enhancing student experience and contributing to the vitality of campus life.

 

Montclair State University is a nationally recognized Research Doctoral University that empowers students, faculty and researchers to exceed expectations and drive innovation. Building on 116 years of distinguished history, Montclair has 13 colleges and schools that serve more than 22,000 undergraduate and graduate students with more than 300 doctoral, master’s and baccalaureate degree programs. Delivering the instructional and research resources of a large public university, Montclair provides a supportive, sophisticated and diverse academic environment. Almost two years ago, Bloomfield College officially became part of Montclair State University as Bloomfield College of Montclair State University, providing an affordable, high-quality and transformative liberal arts educational experience in a small, supportive setting with the resources of a doctoral research university. Montclair ranks among the top 10 universities nationally for social mobility and is noted among the top 12 for its exceptional student outcomes that far exceed experts’ predictions. Montclair is a designated R2 Doctoral Research and Hispanic- Serving Institution (HSI) – and the largest HSI north of Florida and east of Chicago.

 

Situated just 12 miles from New York City on a beautiful 252-acre suburban campus, the University welcomes a diverse population of students representing 42 U.S. states and territories and 113 countries. As an HSI, Montclair State University serves a majority-minority student body. More than 40% of incoming first-year students are the first in their families to pursue higher education and nearly 54% are Pell Grant eligible. Montclair also ranks in the top 13% of 4,500 postsecondary institutions in the U.S. for return on investment for its students.

 

Reporting to the Vice President for Finance and Treasury, the AVP will oversee a budget of approximately $30 million, of which dining services is the largest portion. The bookstore, The Montclair State University Ice Arena and student ID services are other key auxiliary areas. The AVP will collaborate closely with partners across the University, including Student Development and Campus Life and University Facilities, to ensure that services are student-centered, efficient, innovative, and aligned with institutional goals.

 

The AVP will take a holistic view of their core functions: the management of physical auxiliary assets and services across two campuses, and the strategic oversight, management, and long-term planning of external vendor relationships. Most importantly, regarding vendor management, they will maximize the value and revenue of existing assets and services, and they will also be adept at negotiating optimal rates with external vendors.

 

The successful candidate will be a strategic and collaborative leader with a demonstrated record of managing auxiliary services within a complex institution, preferably in a higher education setting. This role oversees 11 staff that includes four student workers supporting them, and requires strong financial acumen, operational expertise, and a passion for enhancing the student experience.
