Description
Who is WFAA?
The Wisconsin Foundation and Alumni Association is a private, nonprofit corporation that encourages individuals and organizations to make gifts to the university and to connect with the UW. In 2014, the UW Foundation merged with the Wisconsin Alumni Association® to better serve a growing population of UW alumni and donors. We believe that private support grows out of good relationships between campus leaders, faculty and program staff who need support, and the alumni and friends who want to invest in UW–Madison. We provide important engagement opportunities to link UW–Madison alumni to each other and to their alma mater, building a strong community of Badgers.
Diversity and Inclusion:
Just as the university community benefits from differing viewpoints, perspectives, and experiences, inclusion and diversity are imperative for the success of our mission. WFAA values people and the differences that they bring to the organization, and creates an environment in which all staff members and constituents feel respected and have opportunities to thrive.
Essential Functions:
• Innovate and Execute: Strategize, develop, and execute concepts and plans for digital content that captivate and engage our audience.
• Create and Curate: Craft meaningful storytelling and curate digital content, including writing, digital photography, and video, that resonates with our community.
• Collaborate and Design: Work closely with colleagues to design and develop content based on marketing objectives and strategic communications priorities.
• Deploy and Leverage: Deploy content to a strategic mix of social media channels, leveraging the unique aspects of each channel to maximize reach and engagement.
• Capture and Promote: Capture content and promote summer and fall WFAA initiatives such as Recent-Grad Weekend, Grandparents University, the W Project, Fill the Hill, Homecoming, and Commencement.
Qualifications:
• Currently enrolled in postsecondary education, ideally at UW–Madison and preferably in communications or a related program.
• Proficient in using multiple social media platforms (Instagram, Twitter/X, YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook, etc.).
• Creative mindset with the ability to craft compelling content that captures attention.
• Strong awareness of internet trends and audience behaviors.
