University of Vermont, Burlington, VT, United States


The University of Vermont’s Department of Student Life is searching for our next Assistant Director for Fraternity and Sorority Life.

What is the role? The Assistant Director for Fraternity and Sorority Life provides leadership across all facets of UVM’s fraternity and sorority community, championing the success and development of recognized Greek-letter organizations, their members, and alumni. This role is hands‑on and people centered. You’ll work directly with students every day, helping them grow as leaders, strengthen their chapters, and build a vibrant, values‑driven FSL experience.

You’ll guide chapter development and compliance, support recruitment, and lead efforts around risk prevention and response, all while promoting an inclusive, healthy, and engaged community. Collaboration is at the heart of the work: you’ll supervise the FSL Coordinator and Graduate Assistant to deliver intentional, consistent advising and programming, and you’ll build strong relationships with students, campus partners, advisors, and national headquarters representatives.

The Assistant Director serves as a key campus partner, a steady resource for students, and a champion for a thriving fraternity and sorority community. This position reports to the Associate Director for Student Involvement.

Who are we looking for? We are looking for someone who thrives in a student‑facing role and brings meaningful experience in Fraternity and Sorority Life. The ideal candidate is a strong communicator who can build rapport with chapters, councils, and a wide range of campus and national partners. They understand the difference between advising and supervising and can support students with clarity and confidence.

Programming and coordination skills are highly valued, especially for recruitment and community‑wide events. Success in this role also requires comfort with administrative work, including budgets, policies, and supervision. A solid understanding of risk management and community education is essential.

The University of Vermont is a welcoming, educationally purposeful community committed to creating an inclusive environment that embraces intellectual diversity and global perspectives. We seek to prepare students to be accountable leaders who will bring to their work a grasp of complexity, effective problem‑solving and communication skills, and an enduring commitment to learning and ethical conduct.

Members of the University of Vermont community embrace and advance the values of Our Common Ground: Respect, Integrity, Innovation, Openness, Justice, and Responsibility. The successful candidate will demonstrate a strong commitment to UVM’s mission and advancing Our Common Ground values.
