Great alumni engagement starts with curiosity about people.

We look for relationship builders, community creators, strategic thinkers, collaborators, storytellers, problem solvers, and experience makers. Some of our team members have spent their careers in higher education advancement. Others bring experience from events, hospitality, marketing, nonprofits, community relations, customer experience, volunteer management, communications, or entirely different fields.

What matters is your ability to turn your understanding of what brings people together into meaningful experiences and lasting relationships.

Because when you're building community for the largest living alumni population in the country, there is always another connection waiting to happen.
