Adler University

<div><p>The Project Coordinator for Strategic Initiatives provides administrative, logistical, and operational support primarily to the Senior Vice President (SVP)/Chief Operating Officer (COO), and to the Office of the President more broadly. Reporting to both the SVP/COO (who also serves in a capacity of Board Secretary) and the Project Manager and Executive Assistant to the President, this role is the primary administrative resource for SVP/COO-driven and board-related projects, priorities, and day-to-day tasks while also supporting presidential office operations in close partnership with and direction from the Project Manager and Executive Assistant to the President.</p>
