About the Team  

The Psychometrics Team supports College Board in serving more than seven million students a year as they prepare for a successful transition to college through programs and services in college readiness and college success. We provide our partners with measurement solutions that set the standard for quality, efficiency, and innovation through operational excellence and research leadership that advances the field of psychometrics and supports College Board’s mission of access and equity in education. Our team of Psychometricians and Research Statisticians collaborates deeply with other departments and divisions including, but not limited to Assessment Design & Development, College Readiness Assessments, Advanced Placement & Instruction, State & District Partnerships, and Technology. 

About the Opportunity   
Psychometrics is continuing to evolve as an implementation-driven organization, supporting a growing portfolio of products and initiatives. As the scale and complexity of this work increases – with advances in digital assessment, automated scoring, AI-enabled measurement --there is an opportunity to strengthen the operational backbone that enables consistent delivery, cross-product coherence, and future-focused evolution—while preserving deep product expertise and technical leadership. 

The Senior Director, Psychometrics Operations provides function-wide operational and people leadership to support this evolution. This role establishes prioritization mechanisms, builds a coherent cross-product operating model, and enables scalable implementation and modernization of psychometric practices. The Senior Director partners closely with Executive Directors, who serve as the technical leaders for psychometrics, to ensure work is delivered effectively and sustainably while creating space for forward-looking technical leadership. The scope of this role is intentionally focused on building sustainable operational infrastructure and people leadership capacity, rather than owning day-to-day technical delivery or product-specific decision-making. 

In this role, you will:  

Manage the Natural Language Measurement (NLM) / Automatic Scoring Team (AST) (40%) 

• Serve as the senior management leader for designated psychometrics staff, including the NLM/AST team. 

• Provide sustained people leadership as AES initiatives expand in scale and complexity. 

• Define and reinforce clear accountability, role clarity, and execution ownership. 

• Develop technical leaders and strengthen bench depth. 

• Manage workload sustainability and prioritize effectively across initiatives.
