UO searching for new Director of Labor Relations to deal with partisan ideologues on Board & in Johnson Hall

Last updated on 12/01/2020

The complete job ad for a replacement for Missy Matella, whose last day was Nov 30, was posted the same day here. The remarkably transparent list of required Professional Competencies includes:

• Ability to work across partisan and ideological lines to build consensus for university and faculty issues.
• Ability to foster and maintain a strongly collaborative relationship with key institutional stakeholder groups including Office of the Provost and Academic Affairs and Office of General Counsel.

Translation: Do what you’re told even when Chuck Lillis, Angela Wilhelms, Mike Schill, Patrick Phillips and Kevin Reed tell you to do different things, your real boss is supposedly Jamie Moffitt, and you have to try and explain whatever you are told to do to the faculty union’s Dave Cecil in a way that makes it sound like it’s all part of a coherent plan to accomplish the university’s mission.

Salary: $135,000 – $165,000 per year, or about 3% of what all the people bossing you around are getting.
