Williams College seeks an exuberant and experienced leader to serve as Executive Director of Alumni Relations.
Reporting to the Assistant Vice President of Alumni Engagement and managing a dedicated team of 12 within the broader Alumni Engagement office, the Executive Director of Alumni Relations partners closely with all members of the department to create warm and welcoming opportunities for alumni to connect with the college and with each other, including events and programs that are intergenerational or within a single class; on campus, online, or in a region where alumni reside; exploring a particular shared experience, career, or aspect of identity; or that stimulate the life-long intellectual curiosity that drew alumni to Williams as students. All in all, the Executive Director looks to increase engagement in ways that facilitate a culture of belonging for alumni.
The Executive Director of Alumni Relations is a highly visible and public role and the person serving in the role recognizes that relationships are central to Alumni Engagement. The Executive Director leads from the heart by forging relationships with alumni through personal interactions and correspondence, providing greater insight into the workings of the college and gaining a greater understanding of the experiences and interests of alumni. The Executive Director must exercise great discretion and discernment, as these personal interactions can be challenging and heartening in equal measure; the Executive Director must be able to represent the college’s position, priorities and values in ways that are clear, yet authentic and compassionate in their response to the interests and concerns of the individual alum.
The Executive Director also guides the workings of the Executive Committee of the Society of Alumni and is responsible for strengthening the pillars of engagement identified in the Society of Alumni strategic plan across Alumni Engagement (lifelong connection, career mentoring and development, lifelong learning, and intentional cultivation of belonging), and partnering with the AVP of AE and colleagues to enact the strategic recommendations of the plan (value engagement and volunteerism; expand programming; demonstrate commitment to and accountability for diversity, equity and inclusion; reimagine the alumni website; fortify the regional associations).
An experienced and skilled manager, the Executive Director ensures all colleagues across College Relations are well-informed about Alumni Engagement work and contributes to a welcoming staff culture of learning through continuous feedback.
