Job SummaryThe North Willamette Research and Extension Center is seeking a Director. This is a full-time (1.00 FTE), 12-month, professional faculty position. The North Willamette Research and Extension Center (NWREC) is located within the Willamette Valley and features world-class horticulture and crop sciences field research.

Approximately 40% of Oregon’s farmgate value is produced within 50 miles of NWREC.
The center’s research and education programming is focused on the region’s most important crop systems: nurseries and greenhouses, fresh vegetables and specialty seed crops, berries and small fruit, Christmas trees, orchard crops, and field crops associated with large and small farms. In addition, NWREC is the location for the state’s only IR-4 Pesticide Registration program, which works with many of the state’s agricultural crops throughout Oregon.

The Director determines the center’s organizational structure and job content/responsibilities. The Director is responsible for identifying all employees’ training and professional development needs and making appropriate arrangements and/or recommendations for training and professional development.
There is an expectation for research and scholarship in this position. Expected scholarly outcomes include the development of research proposals and contracts, publication of reports and journal articles, development of patents, presentations at scientific conferences, graduate education, and/or other trainee education.
The Director serves as the primary liaison between OSU and local community stakeholders. The Director has the responsibility for maintaining strong relationships with stakeholder groups and serving as the contact between the local community and the College of Agricultural Sciences to advance the mission of Oregon State University. The Director provides strong, positive local relationships with county governments, elected and appointed county/state/federal officials, and regional stakeholders.
The Director ensures center compliance with university policy, industry standards, and State and Federal regulations, participates in and communicates with external organizations that promote and support the center’s research efforts, including civic and governmental agencies, commissions, councils, industry partners, and community organizations.
