About the role

Emerson College in Boston seeks a Director, Internships and Work-Based Education to provide institution-wide strategic leadership for internships and experiential learning across credit-bearing and non-credit programs. You will align with academic priorities, work with faculty and industry partners, and shape policies, systems, and practices. The role emphasizes accessibility, quality, and student outcomes, leads governance, expands paid opportunities, and ensures compliance with labor laws.

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.
