Do you see more than data? SOSU H seeks a leader for the Center for Student-Oriented Resources who sees the people behind the numbers and patterns in data

With us, data is not just numbers. Here, data is a path to knowledge about students' well-being, completion and the welfare of the future.

We are looking for a leader who can ensure continued quality in the center's administrative tasks, use data wisely and at the same time remember the human behind the numbers. A leader who can set direction, create alignment across other centers and ensure that data and administration support the students' path through their education.

As a leader you will be a central part of the management team in the Center for Student-Directed Resources and will have the responsibility to lead 30 skilled employees with different professional profiles. Here we work with student administration, data, governance, systems, GDPR and support for students' educational journeys.

"Good leadership is not about physical proximity, but about relationships, trust and accessibility. As a center leader with us you must be able to lead across locations and at the same time be a visible and approachable leader. You will be part of a center with a strong collegial community, humor in everyday life and a genuine focus on both well-being and the core task."

Pia Grosse, Center Leader for Educational Guidance
