Director Search

Fermilab Director Search

Fermilab is moving forward with an ambitious and comprehensive plan to ensure the laboratory remains one of the world's premier particle physics research institutions, leads in new cutting-edge scientific fields like quantum computing and AI and is a model for efficient and effective operations. Fermilab has launched a rigorous search to find the laboratory's next Director to lead at this critical phase in its history. The next Director will manage a set of programs and projects to help answer some of the most fundamental questions in science, while maintaining an environment that drives groundbreaking discovery and attracts the best and brightest

As the search moves forward, Fermilab is committed to keeping the broad community of staff, users and stakeholders engaged throughout the process. This webpage will be used to provide periodic updates, as well as a capability to provide comments and nominations for the Search Committee to consider. In addition, members of the broad Fermilab community will have the opportunity to engage directly with the Search Committee in a series of meetings anticipated later this spring. The Fermilab leadership team believes that a wide range of input will help ensure that the most talented and suitable candidates to serve as the next Laboratory director will be found.
