Assistant/Associate Director, Schools & Programs

Reporting to the Executive Director of Schools & Programs, the Assistant/Associate Director (AD) will serve as a content expert for a portfolio of schools and programs that comprise BC’s most prominent areas of research, teaching, and service.

As a content expert, the AD will serve as a resource to colleagues in functional areas across UA, primarily Development, Stewardship, Communications, and the Alumni Association.  The AD will be responsible for supplying verbal and written content and access to relevant university partners.  They will also play a key role in ensuring the consistency and accuracy of messaging across these functions and in maintaining relationships with campus partners, noting that many relationships with senior administrators will require coordination with Directors and the AVPs.  On occasion, may be asked to develop new areas of expertise and/or work on other projects as assigned.

Will be responsible for developing written content for use in various Advancement purposes, including proposals, appeals, reports, and correspondence.  The AD will also be expected to work with Prospect Research to help identify a pipeline of constituent and non-constituent prospects for the schools and programs in their areas of coverage.

At the Associate Director level, the incumbent will manage a small portfolio of prospects whose gifts align with their areas of content expertise.  As they progress developmentally, this portion of the job may increase commensurate with skills and career aspirations.
