Jefferson Laboratory seeks a Director for its Theory Center. The successful candidate is expected to be a theorist with a strong international reputation who will maintain his or her own active research program at Jefferson Laboratory. The Director of the Theory Center will be responsible for all aspects of the theoretical nuclear physics program of the laboratory; this will include relations with the nuclear physics field and community. The group consists of five regular staff members and eight joint appointees at the faculty level, along with six to eight Jefferson Laboratory post-doctoral fellows and several joint appointees at the postdoctoral fellow and student levels. This staffing is supplemented by a vigorous visitor program. The Director is expected to lead and direct the work of the group and provide for supervision of the staff members and post-doctoral appointees. In developing the program, duties will include responsibility for the development and deployment of the annual budget and for the preparation of the independent proposal, which typically covers a four year period. As the need arises, the laboratory director will request participation in laboratory planning and management tasks involving the development and representation of the laboratory science program.
 Experience/Education Required The successful candidate, with a Ph. D. or equivalent, will bring a deep knowledge of the broad field of nuclear physics along with a vision for the future evolution of the group and its mission. He or she will have the ability to nurture the efforts of the whole group and to set a tone and direction which will ensure excellence on the world scale.
