Central European University (CEU) is seeking applications from
qualified individuals to lead the university's student recruitment process.

Founded in 1991, and accredited in both the US and Hungary, CEU is a
graduate institution in the social sciences and the humanities,
located in Budapest, Hungary. CEU is an active member of the European
higher education area, and has joined cross-European and other
international academic networks, leading to the successful
implementation of a number of EC-funded study and research programs.
The language of instruction and communication is English. Further
information about CEU is available at www.ceu.hu.

With 1,200 students from nearly 80 countries, CEU is an international
university in the truest sense. It recruits students primarily from
Central and Eastern Europe, Russia, Central Asia and the Caucasus, and
increasingly from other countries of Europe, North America, Southeast
Asia, Africa, and elsewhere, who share its mission, academic
orientation, and civic engagement.

The Director of Student Recruitment will be based in Budapest, and
will be responsible for the development and implementation of a
comprehensive student recruitment strategy, taking into account the
increasingly competitive graduate recruitment environment and CEU's
special profile and individual program needs. The main task of the
Director is to engage CEU's leadership, faculty, students and alumni
in a university-wide recruitment effort, focused on the specific
geographic priorities of CEU departments, relations with other
academic institutions, advertising, and general promotion of CEU.

Specific core responsibilities will include:
- Development of a comprehensive recruitment strategy to guide the
university's effort over a period of three-to-five years.
- Coordination of internal recruitment planning: discussions with
departments on their priorities, selection of target institutions for
student recruitment; organization of internal training and information
distribution.
- Involvement of CEU faculty, students, and alumni in direct student
recruitment events, such as graduate recruitment fairs, visits to
universities, presentations at relevant professional conferences, etc.
- Preparation of the CEU recruitment/marketing materials and
maintenance of the "Prospective Students" web pages.
- Coordination of the work of CEU's network of local recruitment
partners and agents.
- Maintenance of a multi-channel communication for advertising:
email; web; printed and on-line advertising; professional distribution
lists; etc.
- Management of administrative duties related to recruitment,
including budget.

Qualifications: The ideal candidate will be a dynamic person, with a
minimum of a Master's degree or equivalent, experience in student
recruitment or in marketing, strong interpersonal, communicative (both
verbal and written), and organizational skills. Advanced knowledge of
technology as it relates to recruitment is expected. Previous study at
CEU is desirable but not a requirement. Salary will be competitive and
commensurate with qualifications and experience.

Deadline for applications: Friday, June 29, 2007.

Interested candidates should send a one-page letter of intent and a
two-page resume to:
Central European University
Human Resources Director, Judit Pallos
