Photo of Chancellor Robert BirgeneauWelcome to the University of California, Berkeley! We hope that you will explore the job opportunities we have available and consider joining the staff of the best public teaching and research university in the nation.

Staff members at UC Berkeley work in a stimulating, inspiring and vibrant environment that is rich in diverse ideas, talents and styles. When I think about Berkeley’s excellence, I cannot underscore enough the importance of having an outstanding staff – from custodians to senior managers. Their pride, dedication and hard work help enable our campus to function effectively.

Since I became Chancellor in 2004, I have been extraordinarily pleased to discover that I have inherited a proud, deeply loyal and hardworking staff – people who take satisfaction in meeting the highest standards. Whether they are counseling students, managing research labs, serving meals, or developing online library resources, they contribute every day to our teaching, research and public service missions.

The university must be a community for those who work here as well as for those who learn here. At our historic campus, gifted professionals in every imaginable discipline come together to create a meaningful future – for themselves and for the world. You can be part of that community.

If you are interested in meeting the challenge, we invite you to view the information and resources on this website. You can learn about our generous benefits, our commitment to continuing professional growth for all staff members, and the academic and cultural opportunities available to staff. Cal is simply the best – and we are looking for talented people to join us in our important education mission.

Yours sincerely,

Robert Birgeneau, Chancellor
