Land Acknowledgment:
Algonquin College campuses in Ottawa, Perth and Pembroke are located on the traditional unceded, and unsurrendered territory of the Anishinàbe Algonquin People. The Algonquin People have inhabited and cared for these lands since time immemorial. We take this time to express our gratitude and respect to them and to the land for all that it has provided and will continue to provide.
Job Description:
Algonquin College is seeking a senior, execution‑focused leader with a demonstrated track record of delivering enterprise‑scale AI strategies and initiatives to successful, measurable outcomes. This role is intended for an experienced professional who has not only shaped AI strategy, but owned its execution, governance, and sustained impact within complex organizations. The successful candidate will bring deep practical experience operationalizing AI in regulated or public‑sector environments, translating strategy into action, managing risk, and delivering value across academic, administrative, and workforce contexts. This is not a conceptual, research, or purely advisory role. Success requires demonstrated experience leading AI initiatives from strategy through implementation, adoption, and value realization.

This role is central to ensuring a coordinated, ethical, and human‑centered approach, ensuring initiatives move beyond pilots into sustained, institution‑wide adoption. Acting as a trusted advisor to senior executives and governance bodies, the role also requires hands‑on leadership of high‑value AI initiatives, governance frameworks, and workforce capability development.
The Director balances innovation with public‑sector accountability, academic integrity, and risk management, while ensuring tangible outcomes and organizational readiness.
