As the USENIX Association continues to grow, it has become
apparent that relying upon volunteer labor to manage the
Association is no longer feasible. The Board of Directors
has decided to hire an Executive Director to oversee the
functioning of the Association.
The Executive Director will report directly to the
Board and will be responsible for the smooth operation of
the USENIX Association; major duties will include:
(1) Supervision of member and office services and
management of office staff
(2) Responsibility for operation of the Association's
computer
(3) Supervision of conference planning
(4) Supervision of newsletter and distribution tape
production
(5) Fiscal control, monitoring, and control of expendi-
tures
(6) Handling of minor policy issues
(7) Handling public relations
This role is expected to develop into a strong leader-
ship position. Candidates for this position should have
previous management and supervisory experience and should be
familiar with the basic usage of computer systems, prefer-
ably UNIX. The candidate must have sufficient maturity to
handle minor policy matters and work without supervision or
direct guidance, and must be self-motivated, well organized,
and thorough with attention to detail. The ability to
interact and deal politely, tactfully, and effectively with
a broad assortment of people is also required.
The position will be based at the USENIX office in El
Cerrito, California. Anyone interested should send a resume
to the USENIX office:
