The Opportunity
NASPA is seeking a visionary leader capable of guiding a dynamic, complex association to its next level of impact. Building upon NASPA’s strength and strong financial position, the next President will be joining the Association as the landscape across the higher education sector is shifting, which brings both opportunities and challenges to make change. The President will be charged with setting strategy and aligning priorities to accelerate NASPA’s position as a convener and thought leader within student affairs and the broader higher education landscape, with a focus on student success.

NASPA’s brand and credibility are strong. As a leading voice in the field, the Association serves a diverse community of individual and institutional members. Leveraging its positive reputation, NASPA advocates for better policy, legislation, and practice in higher education and helps champion innovation, well-being, access, and a sense of community within the student affairs profession.
