In this role, reporting directly to the Associate Dean, the Director leads all research administration functions for the College, overseeing the full lifecycle of externally funded awards across federal, state, foundation, and industrial sponsors.

This position directs the EMS Research Office in delivering high-quality pre-award, post-award, and compliance support aligned with sponsor requirements, University policies and procedures, and the College's research strategy. The Director serves as the principal liaison among EMS leadership, faculty, central administrative offices, and external sponsors to advance research growth, operational excellence, and risk mitigation.

The EMS Research Office supports proposal development and award administration services for a $95 million college research enterprise and leads a highly collaborative team of 11 pre-award and post-award professionals.

Serve as the College's senior research administration leader and primary liaison with central University offices, including Sponsored Programs, Research Accounting, Technology Management, Purchasing, Risk Management, and the Office of General Counsel. Partner with College leadership, department heads, institute directors, and faculty to resolve complex proposal, award, compliance, and sponsor issues while advancing College research priorities.
Identify and implement process improvements that enhance service consistency, operational efficiency, and researcher experience across EMS. Represent the College on University-wide committees and initiatives related to research administration modernization, policy implementation, and shared services. Champion scalable solutions and standardization of best practices.
Contribute to College research strategy through analysis of proposal activity, expenditures, sponsor trends, faculty engagement, and portfolio growth opportunities. Develop and present metrics, dashboards, reports, and briefing materials that support strategic decision-making and research growth.
Interpret evolving federal, state, sponsor, and University policies and translate them into effective College practices. Proactively identify compliance and audit risks and implement appropriate controls, training, and monitoring practices to safeguard the College's research enterprise.
