Stony Brook University's Recreation and Wellness department is hiring a Business Operations Coordinator to provide comprehensive administrative and budgetary support. Reporting to the Director of Recreation and Wellness within the Division of Student Affairs, this role is central to the department's financial health — handling budget forecasting, monthly account reconciliations, expenditure tracking, and preparation of budget presentations.

Beyond the numbers, the coordinator will oversee student employee payroll and onboarding, help plan and execute department-wide special events, and promote recreation center memberships to faculty, staff, and graduate students. The position requires a bachelor's degree, two years of administrative experience, and strong Excel skills including pivot tables and advanced formulas.

If you've been managing budgets, reconciling accounts, or coordinating operations in a corporate, government, or nonprofit setting, this role offers a direct path into higher education — where those same skills support a campus community focused on student wellness and engagement.
