Founded in 1889, Marlborough School is an independent girls college-preparatory school for grades 7 through 12 located in the beautiful Hancock Park district of Los Angeles, California. Marlborough School is the oldest independent girls’ school in the Southern California region. Since its founding, Marlborough has been known as a thought leader in education and an institution of extraordinary excellence.

Central to Marlborough’s mission is the belief in and passion for empowering young women to use their immense talents to better the world and become trailblazers in their own right. The core values highlighted in the School’s Strategic Plan represent the characteristics they hope their students develop throughout their time at Marlborough. Bolstered by world-class faculty and staff, Marlborough’s students are challenged and inspired to work towards their own personal best. Marlborough students have an almost endless array of courses, extracurriculars, electives, and programs to spark their curiosity, deepen their compassion for one another, and lead lives of purpose.

Over Marlborough’s history, the School has grown and changed in many ways. Today’s student body, as well as our faculty and staff, is representative of the talent and diversity of greater Los Angeles. Marlborough’s academic and athletic programs have expanded, college matriculation is highly competitive and distinguished, and campus facilities have kept pace with the educational innovation needed to help students grow and thrive. The School continues to evolve to meet the current moment; adapting, growing, iterating, and innovating.

Marlborough is seeking an innovative, experienced, creative and highly engaged director of technology to lead institution-wide efforts around technology planning and innovation. The position reports directly to the associate head for finance and administration and will join a dynamic and high-functioning team of six directors and managers committed to the school’s mission.
