Virginia Tech’s Moss Arts Center is the university’s professional presenting program that reports to the Office of the Executive Vice President and Provost. The center presents artists from around the globe and from close to home – from renowned masters to new emerging voices – with a special focus on experiences that expand cultural awareness and deepen understanding for the more than 35,000 participants we engage each year. Since opening in 2013, the center has brought innovative and diverse programming to the university. Each year the center provides 25-30 national and international artists in performance, 6-8 distinct gallery exhibitions, 100+ student engagement opportunities, and other impactful outreach across campus and throughout the region, including programs for youth.

Responsibilities include budget preparation, monitoring, financial projections and reporting; managing revenues from multiple sources; ensuring center-wide compliance with university purchasing and asset management procedures; guiding employee hiring, performance management, compensation, and payroll activity; overseeing building maintenance and repair management, improvement projects, and long-term maintenance planning; supporting IT resource management that meets security standards and supports business needs; and ensuring overall safe and compliant departmental operations.

The Director of Administration supports the leadership of the Associate Provost for the Arts and Executive Director by providing responsible, ethical, and clear decision-making, actions, and supportive collaboration with the other unit directors within the center. The Director of Administration is expected to be a highly-organized problem solver, with the ability to thoroughly analyze challenges and opportunities and present clear and concise proposed courses of action that effectively consider financial resources, employees, patrons, and the reputation of the center.
