Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi (TAMU-CC) seeks a creative, visionary, and entrepreneurial leader to serve as its next Executive Director, Performing Arts Center.

TAMU-CC is a vibrant, relatively young doctoral granting university and Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI). With approximately 11,000 students from 48 states and 54 foreign nations, and 1,318 faculty and staff, it combines a heritage of teaching excellence with innovation in research, scholarly activity, and community engagement. In late 2018, TAMU-CC achieved R2 Doctoral University-High Research Activity classification by the Carnegie Commission of Higher Education, which further promotes the University's culture of innovation and research. The University has begun to strengthen and grow its infrastructure to support existing and promising new programs. Services and operations dedicated to student recruitment, retention, and welfare will be expanded to meet increased student demands and enhance the educational experience for all. The University has recently launched a new strategic plan, Islander Impact 2030. The University has a budget of more than $275 million.

The next Executive Director will be an energetic leader and with a strategic mindset to take the Performing Arts Center (PAC) to the next level. Leading a team of four, the successful candidate will come with a strong understanding of the performing arts and a philanthropic background to increase the usage and revenue generation of the PAC.

Under the guidance of the AVP and VP of Institutional Advancement, the Executive Director will develop and implement a comprehensive fundraising plan to support the PAC. This plan will include securing gifts, sponsorships, and naming opportunities. The Executive Director will be expected to significantly increase revenue generation by strategically selecting, promoting, and marketing performances and events. Additionally, the Executive Director will effectively track and manage the PAC budget, ensuring operations remain within financial limits. The Executive Director will also ensure that Grant and Endowment Funds are used appropriately and that all annual reporting and other obligations are fulfilled.

The preferred candidate will have a bachelor's degree from a regionally accredited institution with 10 years of related experience or a master's degree with 8 years of related experience, significant experience with and understanding of the performing arts. Experience in higher education, public, or non-profit environments, fundraising and grant application and management are preferred.
