The incumbent works in a fast-paced, complex office setting, dealing with competing deadlines, multitasking, multidirectional high stakes communication in a highly confidential and nuanced environment faced with constant change and enhancement.

Considerable discretion is a requirement as this position is privy to, and handles, highly sensitive and at times confidential information.

  • Oversee website development and maintenance.
  • Work closely with the Communications team to develop and submit social media posts for college Twitter and Facebook channels and assist with administering social media accounts.
  • Create engaging content about research activities.

Requirements:

  • This position requires strong writing, grammar and editing skills; an eye for detail is essential.
  • This position is responsible for working collaboratively with researchers to develop researchrelated communications and grant proposals, which may include creating templates, sketching outlines, and editing/copyediting.
  • The incumbent operates within a complex environment and requires exceptional attention to detail. Consequence of error is significant to the reputation and profile of the college and the university.
