Hello OER colleagues,
Several people have inquired whether this position could be remote, so I wanted to share this information:
At this time, this position is posted with the expectation of the employee being physically located in Arizona. Our preference is for a candidate who can work in-person or hybrid at our Tucson campus, however other remote work accommodations will be considered for individuals residing in Arizona on a case-by-case basis.
If we do not have a sufficient pool of viable candidates after the date of first review (Nov. 10), we may consider requesting university approval to open the position to an out-of-state remote arrangement. The job posting would be updated accordingly. If you would like to be notified should the position open to out-of-state remote arrangements, please let me know at ccui...@arizona.edu. Please note that applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States for this position, and we are unable to hire U.S. citizens living abroad.
If you’re interested in applying, please see additional details below!
Best,
Cheryl
