Since its founding in 1951, The Westminster Schools (Westminster) has built a distinguished legacy as
one of the most prestigious and high-performing K-12 independent schools in the Atlanta region. A
large institution with the scale and magnitude of a small liberal arts college, Westminster combines
academic rigor and professional excellence with a values-driven commitment to inclusion, affirming
the dignity of all people as central to its identity as a Christian school. Operating at a capacity
that requires enterprise-level thinking, Westminster relies on well-developed systems, thoughtful
governance and the effective use of technology and data, guided by a highly experienced leadership
team.

Westminster introduced the chief information officer (CIO) position in 2019 as a cabinet-level position
reporting to the president to provide executive leadership for the school’s IT and information
systems functions and to support Westminster’s operations. Now, the next CIO will continue this
work and focus on refining departmental structure, expanding cybersecurity efforts, advancing data
governance, and ensuring that systems and infrastructure reliably support the school’s mission
across academics, athletics, and operations. Westminster is seeking an experienced technology
leader who values relationships and collaboration, can set clear strategic direction and goals and
brings demonstrated expertise in enterprise systems oversight, data governance and cybersecurity,
and team leadership. The CIO will build on existing capabilities rather than starting from scratch,
aligning technology practices with institutional priorities and partnering closely with senior leadership
to support Westminster’s long-term vision. The CIO will report to the incoming president and
supervise a team of 10–11 technology professionals in the department. The incoming president will
be involved in the later stages of this search, and will also join Westminster this summer following
a graceful handoff from the retiring president. Westminster looks forward to welcoming its next CIO
sometime this summer, or earlier by mutual agreement.
