William & Mary - Director of Research at W&M's Global Research Institute
Are you passionate about transforming how universities approach interdisciplinary research? The Global Research Institute at William & Mary is launching an ambitious new chapter—one that reimagines research incubation for the 21st century. As our Director of Research, you'll lead a cutting‑edge model that breaks down academic silos, integrates students as true research partners, and creates pathways for ideas to achieve real‑world impact.

This is a rare opportunity to build something entirely new: a multi‑tier research ecosystem (Engage → Exploration → Accelerate → Sustain) at an institute that has already generated over $100 million in external funding and launched countless student careers. You'll work with brilliant faculty across disciplines, guide projects from conception to sustainability, and help establish a model that other universities will emulate.
If you're energized by the prospect of supporting breakthrough research that addresses global challenges while mentoring the next generation of scholar‑practitioners, this role offers the perfect blend of intellectual stimulation, strategic leadership, and meaningful impact. Join us in Gates Hall, our state‑of‑the‑art facility opening in 2026, where big ideas become reality.
The Director of Research leads GRI's research incubation enterprise, ensuring the success of faculty researchers across all tiers (Engage, Exploration, Accelerate, Sustain) while integrating student engagement throughout. This role is accountable for the strategic direction, quality, and impact of GRI's research portfolio and serves as the primary advocate for researcher needs within the organization.
