Rotational Finance Fellow

The Rotational Finance Fellowship within the Vice President for Finance senior management area is a 12-month cross-departmental experiential learning and development opportunity for recent graduates or those new to Higher Education Administration. The Fellow will work in close collaboration with the managers within individual departments, which may include:

• Budget and Financial Planning
• Capital Budgeting and Financing
• University Controller

• Financial Management
• Procurement
• Bursar’s Office
• Risk Management
• University Treasurer
• Office of the Vice President for Finance

The Fellow will spend an assigned amount of time in rotations with two or three of the Division of Finance departments listed above and have the opportunity to work on specific projects and assignments that will provide the Fellow an excellent understanding of the university’s financial and administrative functions. The Fellow will assist with special project assignments, which vary based on the department’s role within the university. Projects may include the development of benchmark data, business analyses, presentations, reports, position papers, project and event management activities, and more. The Fellow will also serve as a member of the Vice President for Finance Inclusion & Diversity Committee and contribute to the Committee’s ongoing activities and operations. As possible, the Office of the Vice President for Finance will work with the Fellow to establish a schedule of department rotations and projects that align with the Fellow’s interests, strengths, and experiences.

The targeted start date is in June 2024.
