<p><span>Position: Chief Information Officer (CIO)</span></p><br>
<p><span><span>Classification:</span> Senior Leadership </span><br><span><span>Reports To:</span> President </span><br><span>About The American International University</span></p><br>
<p><span>American International University (AIU) is a private institution in Kuwait, founded in 2019, offering undergraduate programs based on the American model of higher education. AIU provides degrees in Engineering, Architecture and Design, Business Administration, Arts and Sciences, and Education, with English as the language of instruction. The University is committed to fostering intellectual, cultural, and personal growth, preparing graduates for leadership roles in a global society.</span></p><br>
<p><span>AIU is in active execution of its RISE Strategy 2026–2030, a five-year institutional transformation anchored in research development, WSCUC international accreditation, student success, and community engagement. Technology is not peripheral to this strategy; it is foundational to it. The CIO is a key member of the Senior Leadership Team, responsible for ensuring that AIU's digital infrastructure, enterprise platforms, and data ecosystem are built for the institutional ambitions of 2030, not the operational needs of 2019.</span></p><br> <p><span>For more information, visit: www.aiu.edu.kw</span><br></p><br>
<p><span>Department Profile</span></p><br>
<p><span>The CIO oversees two integrated functions that together constitute AIU's technology enterprise: the established Information Technology division, led by the Executive Director of IT, and the newly created Digital Transformation Office, which sits directly under the CIO's strategic leadership. Together, these functions manage all enterprise platforms, cybersecurity and data governance, academic technology, digital student services, and the AI-enabled tools that support administrative decision-making.</span></p><br> <p><span>Scope of Work</span></p><br>
<p><span>The Chief Information Officer serves as AIU's most senior technology executive and a strategic thought partner to the President. The role bridges two realities: managing a live and growing enterprise technology environment reliably and efficiently today, while building the digital infrastructure that will sustain a WASC-accredited, research-active, rankings-visible university by 2030. The CIO is accountable for both.</span></p><br> <p><span>The scope of work spans five interconnected domains:</span></p><br>
<ol>
<li><span>IT Strategy & Governance: Define and execute the multi-year IT strategic plan aligned with the RISE Strategy. Own IT governance, policy, and investment decisions across the entire technology portfolio.</span></li>
<li><span>Campus Digital Transformation: Lead the systematic replacement of manual, SharePoint, and Excel-based processes with integrated, automated, data-driven systems across administration, academics, research, and student services.</span></li>
<li><span>Enterprise Platform Management: Oversee the optimization, integration, and lifecycle management of all enterprise platforms: Banner (SIS), Canvas (LMS), Salesforce (CRM), Oracle Finance, and Tableau and lead evaluation of next-generation systems.</span></li>
<li><span>AI & Data Intelligence: Champion the institutional adoption of AI tools and data analytics to enhance administration efficiency, student success, research support, and decision-making at every level of the University.</span></li>
<li><span>Cybersecurity & Data Governance: Ensure AIU's data is secure, accurate, accessible, and compliant providing the data infrastructure that WASC accreditation, institutional research, and Board reporting require.</span></li>

<li><span>Present quarterly technology performance reports to the President and an annual technology state-of-institution report to the Board of Trustees in plain language, not technical language</span></li>
<li><span>Manage the IT budget with full accountability for return on investment: technology spend must be justified by measurable institutional outcomes, not by technical preference</span></li>
<li><span>Lead all major technology vendor selection, contract negotiation, and relationship management ensuring AIU obtains best-value agreements and maintains leverage with strategic technology partners</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span>2. Campus Digital Transformation</span></p><br>

<li><span>Drive the digitalization of Faculty and Research workflows including research output tracking, grant management, assessment data collection, course file management, and faculty performance documentation</span></li>
<li><span>Ensure all digital transformation initiatives are adopted effectively change management, training, and user support are as important as the technology itself; a system that faculty and staff do not use has delivered zero value</span></li>
<li><span>Coordinate with the Director of Global Excellence and Benchmarking to ensure that institutional data required for QS, THE, and Webometrics submissions is generated automatically by integrated systems rather than assembled manually each year</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span>3. Enterprise Platform Optimization and Integration</span></p><br>

<li><span>Ensure that all platform implementations are executed to full functional scope with proper data governance, user training, and long-term support plans partial implementations that leave core functionality unused are not acceptable outcomes</span></li>
