The Office of the Provost is seeking a Business Development Consultant who will cultivate opportunities for complex new business opportunities and public dissemination of the portfolio of projects developed at the department/division level. Independently perform a variety of activities intended to promote the capabilities and intellectual property of the team of faculty and staff within the division/department. Responsible for sourcing, shaping, closing and managing large deals with a variety of partners that advance the aims of Johns Hopkins University, the division/department and the specific projects that are promoted.

Johns Hopkins University is establishing a distinct third educational access point within its ecosystem for Non-Degree & Non-Credit (NDNC) education and microcredentials alongside its traditional undergraduate and graduate offerings. This initiative unifies a broad landscape of executive education, professional development, continuing education, and personal enrichment under one cohesive identity.

This expanding portfolio addresses a growing demand for flexible, skills-focused learning designed for working professionals and lifelong learners.
