Please download the opportunity statement, which contains information about The Field School and the position, as well as required application materials to prepare in advance.  All applications must be submitted online. Please review the How to Apply section below for further application instructions. SUMMARY Founded in 1972 and located on an outstanding campus in Washington, D.C., The Field School serves approximately 370 students in grades 6-12. Field provides students with an inquiry-based curriculum encompassing organized “fields’’ of knowledge taught in an environment that stresses dialogue, analytic thinking, and larger lessons of how young people can grow to become generous, responsible, and self-knowing adults. Field has also just begun its most ambitious capital project to-date, a $20M campus expansion project that includes new athletics facilities, campus meeting spaces and classrooms, and a 15,000-sq. ft. THINK Studio. Field now seeks a director of technology to oversee all aspects of its technology program. The technology department is led by the director, includes a full-time IT specialist, and is supported by a D.C.-based MSP. The incoming director will lead ongoing improvements to the school’s technology infrastructure as the campus expands, streamline systems and workflows, and consider innovative ways to manage institutional data and technologies. The current technology director will retire in 2026 and is flexible with the transition timeline, so Field is open to candidates who can start in early 2026 or closer to the summer. All that said, Field’s priority is to have its next director of technology installed no later than the end of June 2026.
