The University of Auckland, Waipapa Taumata Rau is seeking an inspirational leader with outstanding interpersonal skills and commitment to excellence in research and teaching to become our Dean, Faculty of Law, Manukura Ture.
The Dean will be ambitious for the people and their endeavour in the Faculty of Law. Applying their strategic, management and financial acumen, the Dean will create an environment that continues to inspire excellence in an inclusive and empowering way for all staff and students.
The Dean will recognise that people are the Faculty's greatest asset and will foster a culture of collegiality and trust, ensuring all staff are encouraged and enabled to achieve at the highest level.
The Dean will draw on their academic credentials to provide visionary leadership to enhance our reputation as New Zealand's leading Faculty of Law. The Dean will combine personal academic eminence with a sound understanding of the challenges and opportunities afforded to the country's leading Law School, bringing knowledge and expertise to continue to grow the Faculty's research excellence and outstanding student achievement.
An accomplished relationship builder, the Dean will demonstrate a commitment to cross-faculty, cross-disciplinary collaboration and, ideally, a record of meaningful external engagement with the legal profession, government, business, global and local law communities, and international institutional and educational partners.
Candidates who are not already familiar with New Zealand's bicultural context will be expected to engage with Māori culture and systems of knowledge and to develop a sound understanding of Te Tiriti o Waitangi and Aotearoa New Zealand's place in the Pacific. We aspire to contribute to a fair, ethical, and sustainable society, reflecting our commitment to Te Tiriti o Waitangi and our foundational relationship with tangata whenua. The Dean will demonstrate the insight, experience, and commitment to provide continued leadership to equity, diversity, and inclusion.
Working with and reporting to the Provost, the Dean will balance the role of being the Faculty's leader and greatest advocate while contributing to the success of the whole University as a key member of the Senior Leadership team, collaborating constructively with other Deans and Directors.
Situated in the heart of the Auckland legal precinct, with strong links to the legal profession and the judiciary, the Faculty has very supportive and successful alumni, holding some of the most influential positions in the country. The Dean will partner with others within and beyond the Faculty to explore and enhance opportunities to secure its future, including growing the Faculty's philanthropic base and to managing relationships with an existing portfolio of major donors, including individuals, trusts and corporate entities.
