Temple University Center City supports undergraduate and graduate programs, continuing education, corporate training, public events, and community engagement initiatives, with programming and activities occurring throughout the day, in the evening, and on weekends.

The Director provides strategic and operational leadership for Temple University Center City, serving as the senior campus administrator responsible for advancing the campus as a vibrant hub for teaching, learning, professional development, community engagement, and civic partnership. The Director oversees campus operations, facilities coordination, space utilization, scheduling, administrative functions, and services that enable outstanding academic programs, public events, and external partnerships. As the campus leader, the Director provides hands-on leadership, creative problem-solving, and coordination to ensure the campus functions as a high-quality, welcoming, accessible, and secure environment where innovative programs, partnerships, and community engagement can thrive.

The Director will lead the planning and execution of the relocation of Temple University Center City from 1515 Market Street to 211 S.
