Job Posting: Loudoun County Public Schools

The public school district in northeast Virginia with 84,000 students is hiring its first Ombudsman. The full-time position "serves as a designated neutral resource for families, employees and community members, advocating for fairness, equity and consistency to assist in the resolution of education, student and employee-related concerns, problems, complaints and issues." The LCPS will report to the Chief of Staff. The district considered an Ombuds about 14 years ago and it is not clear what lead to the renewed interest.

Applicants must have a related Bachelor's degree and six years of Ombuds or professional mediation conflict resolution experience (or an equivalent combination of education and experience). The position pays $112,931-$177,538 per year. (LCPS Posting.)
