Director of Behavioral Threat Assessment and Management

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections that have real specific content. We need to parse the job description. We have: - About the role: The description includes a paragraph about the role: "The Director of Behavioral Threat Assessment and Management serves as Brown University's strategic and operational leader for BART..." That's about the role. - Responsibilities: The "Major Responsibility" sections list many responsibilities. We can combine them into a list under Responsibilities. - Requirements: The "Job Qualifications" includes Required and Preferred. We can treat Required as Requirements, Preferred as maybe Skills or Qualifications? The instruction: Use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can have Requirements (required qualifications) and Qualifications (maybe preferred?). Or we could combine required and preferred under Requirements and Qualifications respectively. We'll decide: Requirements = required qualifications; Qualifications = preferred qualifications (or additional qualifications). Skills could be extracted from required: excellent written and oral communication skills, etc. But we can also put skills under Skills heading. We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. No Job ID etc. We must remove boilerplate: "Application review is ongoing. Criminal and education background check satisfactory to Brown University." Also "Benefits of Working at Brown: Please review additional information on the Benefits of Working at Brown." That's a link but no specifics; we should not create Benefits section unless actual benefits listed. There's no specific benefits listed, so we should not include Benefits heading. Pay: Not mentioned. Schedule: Not mentioned (though we have Scheduled Weekly Hours: 37.5 in the metadata at bottom). That is schedule info: "Scheduled Weekly Hours: 37.5". That is specific schedule info. So we can include a Schedule section with that detail. Also we have "Position Work Location: Onsite". That's maybe not a standard heading; could be part of About the role or maybe we could include under Working Conditions? Not a standard heading. We could include under About the role or maybe as a separate section like "Work Location" but not in allowed headings. Since only allowed headings are those listed, we should not create extra headings. We could fold location into About the role paragraph. We also have "Worker Type: Employee", "Worker Sub-Type: Regular", "Time Type: Full time". Those could be part of About the role or maybe Schedule? Not needed. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include details like reporting line, dual mandate, etc. We must not include cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. The posting includes none of that besides maybe "Application review is ongoing." That's boilerplate; we should drop it. We also need to drop "Recruiting Start Date: 2026-09-18", "Job Posting Title:", "Department:", "Grade:", "Worker Type:", etc. Those are metadata; we can drop them unless they contain substantive info like schedule hours. The schedule hours we keep. We need to output only HTML fragment, no markdown fences. Let's craft:

About the role

The Director of Behavioral Threat Assessment and Management serves as Brown University's strategic and operational leader for BART, the University's established behavioral threat assessment and management process. Reporting directly to the Vice President for Public Safety and Emergency Management, the Director chairs and convenes the BART Team and works in close partnership with Campus Life, supporting its leadership in advancing consistency, coordination, and shared standards across school-based Behavioral Intervention Team (BIT) and Dean-of-Students-affiliated behavioral concern processes across the University. This position holds a dual mandate: (1) institutional subject-matter expert on behavioral risk, threat assessment methodology, and violence prevention, and (2) strategic and operational leader responsible for BART's day-to-day management, case oversight, policy and protocol review and enhancement, and prevention strategy. The Director collaborates with partner offices to help behavioral concern pathways operate under consistent standards, clear escalation protocols, and defensible, well-documented decision-making, while respecting the distinct roles and expertise of Campus Life, academic units, and other campus partners. Primarily office-based with regular campus travel to meet with stakeholders across schools, colleges, and administrative units. Requires availability outside normal business hours for urgent case consultation and participation in emergency response activations. Exposure to sensitive, sometimes distressing case information involving mental health crises, violence risk, and trauma; access to appropriate clinical consultation and supervision support should be available to mitigate. Position work location is onsite.

But we need to avoid duplication; we included some of the Working Conditions details. That's okay. Now Responsibilities: We'll list each major responsibility as

. We have many major responsibilities: Team Convening and Program Leadership, Program Coordination and Partnership, Behavioral Threat Prevention Strategy, Enterprise Risk Intelligence, Cross-Campus BIT Coordination, Policy, Protocol, and Governance, Subject Matter Expertise, Consultation, and Training, Case Management Oversight and Quality Assurance, Exercising and Continuous Improvement, Emergency and Crisis Response. Under each we have bullet points (some are sentences). We'll extract each bullet as list items. Let's extract: Team Convening and Program Leadership: - Chair and convene the multidisciplinary BART Team, setting meeting cadence, agenda, and structured case-review protocols. - Serve as the designated case manager of record for high-risk and complex cases, coordinating closely with Public Safety, Campus Life, Human Resources, Counseling and Psychological Services, General Counsel, Title IX, Residential Life, and Disability Services. - Provide direct case consultation and, where appropriate, hands-on case management for the highest-acuity referrals, including intake triage, risk assessment, safety/threat management planning, and follow-up monitoring. - Represent BART to senior leadership, providing regular reporting on program metrics, case trends, emerging risks, and program effectiveness. Program Coordination and Partnership: - Work with school-, division-, and unit-level behavioral intervention and care teams to help ensure practices, including intake, risk assessment, escalation, documentation, and case closure, align with best practice and effectively meet the needs of campus, while respecting the distinct roles, expertise, and needs of partner offices across Brown's decentralized environment. - Coordinate cross-divisional initiatives to strengthen reporting pathways, information sharing, and multidisciplinary collaboration among the offices and teams that intersect with behavioral risk. - Identify and recommend opportunities to strengthen organizational structure, staffing, technology, and program maturity for BART, in consultation with campus partners and the Vice President for Public Safety and Emergency Management. Behavioral Threat Prevention Strategy: - Lead the University's behavioral threat prevention strategy by identifying emerging trends, recommending prevention initiatives, strengthening reporting pathways, and fostering a campus culture of early intervention and shared responsibility. - Advance upstream prevention programming that reduces reliance on reactive case response, in partnership with Campus Life, Human Resources, and academic leadership. Enterprise Risk Intelligence: - Analyze behavioral risk trends, recurring vulnerabilities, systemic issues, and emerging threats across the University, and translate that analysis into strategic recommendations for senior leadership on institutional risk reduction. - Monitor patterns such as repeat concerning behavior within particular settings, stalking trends, workplace violence trends, and online threatening behavior, informing both program adjustments and broader institutional risk management. Cross-Campus BIT Coordination: - Support Campus Life in its leadership of efforts to strengthen coordination and consistency across school-based BIT and student-of-concern processes (e.g., undergraduate, graduate, athletics, international programs, residential life), providing behavioral threat assessment expertise to help advance consistent intake criteria, risk assessment practices, and referral pathways. - Partner with campus teams to establish and maintain clear lines of escalation between lower-acuity BIT case management and higher-acuity BART threat assessment review, so cases are routed to the appropriate level of response without duplication or gaps. - Facilitate information-sharing protocols among teams that comply with FERPA, HIPAA, the Clery Act, and applicable state law, helping teams understand permissible disclosure pathways in safety situations. Policy, Protocol, and Governance: - Develop, maintain, and periodically review the University's behavioral threat assessment policies, standard operating procedures, and case-management protocols. - Ensure written protocols clearly define team authority, scope, membership, confidentiality and information-sharing standards, referral criteria, assessment methodology, and intervention and case-closure procedures. - Partner with General Counsel and compliance offices to ensure protocols reflect current federal and state law (e.g., FERPA, Clery Act/Campus SaVE, Title IX, ADA/Section 504, and applicable state campus-safety statutes). Subject Matter Expertise, Consultation, and Training: - Serve as the University's internal subject-matter expert on behavioral risk indicators, threat assessment methodology, targeted violence prevention, stalking and interpersonal-violence risk, and workplace/campus violence dynamics. - Consult proactively on major University events, high-attendance or heightened-security speaking engagements, employment actions, student separations, high-profile disciplinary matters, and other planning activities where behavioral risk assessment can inform decision-making before a concern becomes a case. - Provide individual consultation to faculty, staff, and administrators managing concerning situations involving students, employees, or third parties. - Design and deliver ongoing training for BART/BIT team members, campus security authorities, faculty, staff, and residential life staff on recognizing and reporting concerning behavior and understanding referral pathways. Case Management Oversight and Quality Assurance: - Oversee use of a standardized case-management system for documentation, tracking, and outcome monitoring across all affiliated teams. - Conduct or oversee quality-assurance review of case files to ensure consistent application of risk-assessment methodology and adherence to protocol. - Track and report aggregate program data (case volume, risk-level distribution, referral sources, outcomes, time-to-intervention) to inform continuous improvement. Exercising and Continuous Improvement: - Develop and facilitate tabletop exercises, case simulations, and after-action reviews to continually strengthen the University's behavioral threat assessment capabilities. - Incorporate lessons learned from exercises and real cases into policy, training, and protocol updates, in coordination with the Department's broader emergency management and business continuity functions. Emergency and Crisis Response: - Be available for consultation on urgent and emergent behavioral risk situations outside standard business hours. - Partner with the Department of Public Safety and Emergency Management and Counseling and Psychological Services leadership on crisis response protocols involving individuals in behavioral crisis. - Participate in the University's broader emergency management and critical-incident response structure as the behavioral threat subject-matter expert. Now Requirements (required qualifications): - Master's degree in psychology, counseling, social work, criminal justice, public safety administration, higher education administration, or a closely related field (or equivalent combination of education and relevant experience). - Minimum 7–10 years of progressively responsible experience in behavioral threat assessment, violence risk assessment, behavioral intervention team leadership, campus safety, law enforcement, or clinical case management involving at-risk populations, including demonstrated experience convening or leading a multidisciplinary team. - Demonstrated experience utilizing structured professional judgment methodologies and evidence-informed behavioral threat assessment frameworks. - Working knowledge of relevant law and regulation, including FERPA, the Clery Act, Title IX, ADA/Section 504, and applicable state campus-safety statutes. - Demonstrated ability to build cross-divisional relationships and lead through influence across departments with no direct reporting relationship, in a decentralized institutional environment. - Excellent written and oral communication skills, including experience preparing reports and briefings for senior leadership. Qualifications (preferred): - Nationally recognized certification in threat assessment and management or behavioral intervention team practice, or willingness to obtain within an agreed timeframe. - Prior experience in a higher education setting, including familiarity with student conduct processes, Title IX coordination, and residential life operations. - Licensure or clinical background (e.g., LCSW, LPC, psychologist) is a plus but not required if paired with strong threat assessment and case management experience. - Experience with case-management information systems. Skills: Could extract from required: excellent written and oral communication skills, ability to build cross-divisional relationships, etc. But we already have those under Requirements. Could create Skills heading for communication skills etc. However we might avoid duplication. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones.
