The college is comprised of the university’s three accredited business schools, each of which is recognized as among the best in higher education: the Charles H.

SC Johnson Graduate School of Management:

The Samuel Curtis Johnson Graduate School of Management at Cornell delivers educational programming across six different MBA programs with the intent of developing highly successful and ethical business leaders of the future. Relying on the pillars of performance learning, a collaborative community and Cornell’s vast connections, the Johnson faculty produce students equipped to excel in the current cross-functional, collaborative, digital economy.

The Cornell Executive MBA program offers professionals the opportunity to pursue an MBA while remaining engaged in their careers. This effort is comprised of three programs—the Cornell Executive MBA Metro NY program that conducts courses on weekends in the metro NY area, the Cornell EMBA/MS in Healthcare Leadership which is a dual degree program for healthcare leaders in NYC, and the Cornell Executive MBA Americas that delivers its educational content via multi-point videoconferencing to boardroom sites in select cities across the US and Canada

This Position:

While position responsibilities vary, every member of our community is expected to foster a culture of belonging and a psychologically healthy work environment by communicating across differences; being cooperative, collaborative, open, and welcoming; showing respect, compassion, and empathy; engaging and supporting others regardless of background or perspective; speaking up when others are being excluded or treated inappropriately; and supporting work/life integration of oneself and others.

This position is responsible for managing student, faculty, and academic related activities for the Cornell Executive MBA Metro NY Program, as well as supporting general program administration.

Duties involve a range of processes and functions, some of which require collaboration and coordination with other EMBA program staff, staff in other Johnson departments, staff in offices around Cornell, and external vendors.

Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

• Faculty Support
• Academic Materials and Course Management Coordination
• Student Support, Onboarding and Program Representation

The Academic Services Manager periodically attends special events and activities for current students and/or alumni. Such opportunities help to reinforce the face of the program role and provide important opportunities to connect with program participants about the EMBA Metro NY Program.

Under general supervision, and in consultation with the Senior Director of Operations and Program Services as needed, the Academic Services Manager resolves questions and accomplishes tasks independently and efficiently with a high degree of responsiveness. The position requires significant attention to detail, the ability to juggle multiple priorities simultaneously with a high degree of efficiency, an ability to manage unforeseen changes and requests, and the ability to maintain a calm, composed, and professional demeanor during high intensity periods.
