[Cuga] APPLICANT SEARCH: Head, NSF Office of International Science and Engineering- A message from France Córdova

[Lorelei Chopard]

Dear Colleague:

We recently launched a national search for the National Science 
Foundation's Head of the Office of International Science and Engineering 
(OISE). OISE oversees NSF's international research and education 
portfolio, and works closely with our disciplinary research directorates 
to develop an agency-wide strategy to cultivate international 
collaboration.

The Office Head is a member of the NSF senior management team, and 
communicates and interacts with all of the staff, programs, and 
activities of the Foundation. The incumbent advises the Director, Deputy 
Director, and other senior managers on issues related to international 
scientific collaboration. The Office Head leads a diverse group of over 
30 program managers, analysts, and support staff at NSF headquarters, as 
well as nine staff at three overseas offices in Paris, Tokyo, and Beijing.

We seek your help in disseminating this opportunity and encouraging 
qualified people to apply for this crucial post. Ideal candidates must 
demonstrate outstanding leadership; a deep appreciation for the role 
that international collaboration can play in U.S. science, technology, 
engineering, and mathematics research and education; a grasp of the 
issues and challenges involved in communicating that role to 
stakeholders; and the ability to serve effectively as a key member of 
the NSF management team. We are especially interested in identifying 
women, members of minority groups, and persons with disabilities for 
this vital post. Individuals from any sector - academic, industry, or 
government - are welcome to apply.

Please see https://www.usajobs.gov/GetJob/ViewDetails/384110200 for a 
full position description, and instructions on submitting an 
application. Applications must be submitted by December 1, 2014.

A PDF version of this letter, with signature, is attached. The letter 
also includes a brief description of the position, for your convenience.

Your assistance in this very important task is appreciated.

    Sincerely,

    /// signed ///
