Premier College Preparatory School in NYC Welcomes Mission-driven CIO from San Diego

Trinity School, located on the Upper West Side of New York City, is a premier, nationally ranked institution with over 300 years of history dedicated to excellence in education and service to its community. Serving just over 1,000 students, Trinity is a school where teacher-student engagement, interpersonal relationships, and palpable joy are not only easily observed but also unapologetically paramount.

To address the growing significance and complexity of the school’s technology program over the past several years, Trinity created a new executive role, a chief information officer (CIO), to begin in the spring or summer of 2025. The CIO oversees a new division and leads the integration of three currently separate technology units at Trinity: information technology, data / systems, and educational technology. The IT unit is led by a director who in turn manages a team of six; the other two units are smaller but play an important role in day-to-day school operations. The unification of these units will be essential to help academic and non-academic departments leverage technology more efficiently, effectively, and seamlessly. As such, the CIO is empowered to improve workflows, examine policies, adjust operations, and reimagine roles and departmental structures. In addition, the CIO will have an opportunity to be a part of an early hire in the data / systems unit later this spring.

The ideal candidate is forward-looking and innovative, with an ability to lead at an enterprise level. At the same time, the CIO must be ready to address immediate areas of opportunity with a hands-on, can-do, human-centered mindset. The CIO should also be mission-aligned and eager to serve Trinity’s relational community of learners and educators. The CIO reports directly to the head of school and serves as a member of the executive management team.
