About the role

Rutgers University is seeking a Deputy Director for the Brain Health Institute (BHI) in New Jersey. The role focuses on leading the strategic plan, guiding research training and mentoring for physician‑researchers, and expanding federally funded neuroscience programs. The successful candidate will demonstrate strong leadership, translational neuroscience expertise, and a track record in academia with NIH-funded research oversight.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
