Sakai Executive Director Position Search

The Sakai Foundation, a private, nonprofit organization, seeks a visionary leader to serve as Executive Director.   From its inception in January 2004 to the present day, the Sakai Foundation has led the community-based development of an open source Collaboration and Learning Environment designed to meet the needs of higher education.  With nearly 100 academic and corporate members, and over 200 institutional deployments on six continents, the Sakai community is robust, global and growing. The Sakai community is marked by active development projects, a deeply engaged teaching and learning constituency, and well established communities of practice, all contributing significantly to the development of the Sakai software. The Executive Director manages the Foundation activities and staff, leads the community, and engages with agencies and organizations on behalf of the Foundation.  Because the Sakai community is global, and the staff spread across the US and Europe, there is no location requirement for the position. We welcome applications from all locations.
