German term or phrase: Kaufmännische Geschäftsführung

Hi everybody!
I've been looking for some good translations for two job titles:
Kaufmännische Geschäftsführung
Pädagogische Geschäftsführung

The institution in question offers research and educational opportunities for young people interested in learning more about science.

Here are my best guesses:
Kaufmännische Geschäftsführung - Administrative Director
Pädagogische Geschäftsführung - Director of Education

I'm not sure if these are accurate enough or not. Have any of you seen these before? Do you have any better ideas? I'd appreciate any help you might be able to offer.

Thanks in advance!

Jennifer

Schorry, I put my link in the wrong place (this site's a bit too sophisticated for an OF).

Thanks! I went with Administrative Director and Academic Director and the customer was extremely happy. It turns out that I was given the simplified job titles - these translations actually corresponded pretty closely with the full titles so I was relieved. I appreciate the help!
