SNOLAB Executive Director

Deadline to Apply: September 24, 2021

SNOLAB is currently seeking a dynamic individual to lead the organization as its Executive Director.

About the position and SNOLAB

SNOLAB’s vision is to be the location and partner of choice for deep underground science, delivering world-class science and benefit to Canada, and its international partners, by providing and promoting national and international access to the unique facilities and expertise at SNOLAB.

With financial support from the Government of Canada and the Province of Ontario, and in collaboration with five Canadian partner institutions (University of Alberta, Carleton University, Laurentian University, Université de Montréal and Queen’s University) SNOLAB delivers on its mission to:

  • Enable and spearhead world-class underground science;
  • Develop and maintain world-class facilities and infrastructure;
  • Educate, inspire and innovate; and
  • Develop quality delivery systems of internationally recognized standards.

The Executive Director position will be a five-year initial appointment associated with one of the member institutions and is renewable. Salary will be commensurate with that for Canadian full professors at top tier universities and with equivalent positions at comparable science and research facilities. Qualified candidates may also be offered an academic appointment at Queen’s University or Carleton University, subject to appropriate appointment processes.
