The Aspen Leadership Group is proud to partner with Binghamton
University in the search for an Executive Director of Alumni
Engagement.
The Executive Director of Alumni Engagement is responsible for
developing and implementing a comprehensive engagement program
designed to provide meaningful opportunities for volunteerism,
service, personal and professional development, and events and
programs for alumni to enhance loyalty, dedication, and support for
Binghamton University.
Binghamton University is a world-class institution that unites more
than 130 broadly interdisciplinary educational programs with some
of the most vibrant research in the nation. Its unique character
shaped by outstanding academics, facilities, and community life
promotes extraordinary student success. As part of the State
University of New York (SUNY) System, it is one of four doctoral
granting university centers.
Binghamton merges rigorous academics, distinguished faculty, and
state-of-the-art facilities to engage and challenge its 17,000
students. The high-achieving Binghamton student body also
represents a great diversity of life experiences, from
first-generation college-goers to international students. Beyond
their talent, these classmates share a desire to shape the future
through technology, insight, intellectual exploration, and
community service.
The Binghamton University Alumni Association is nearly as old as
the University itself. The Harpur College Alumni Association
elected its first officers in 1951, following the first
Commencement. As Harpur College grew and became a part of the State
University of New York, the Alumni Association grew and today
serves as the umbrella organization for a number of alumni groups
and activities.
The mission of the Binghamton University Alumni Association is to
reach, serve, and engage all Binghamton alumni. The Association
connects alumni to the University and to each other, provides
valued service, and supports the University's mission of teaching,
research, and service. It does so by encouraging collaboration and
inclusiveness, continuing the tradition of excellence and building
pride.
The Office of Alumni Engagement supports the Alumni Association,
working on behalf of its board of directors, an all-volunteer
policy-setting body. The Association represents more than 124,000
alumni, and is a non-dues paying organization. All graduates
automatically become members and are entitled to the quality
services and activities provided by the association.
A bachelor's degree is required for this position as is at least
five years of successful experience in alumni relations, which
includes an acknowledged work history showing creative
productivity. Higher education experience is preferred. Experience
in public relations or a related field in which the candidate can
demonstrate a successful track record will be considered.
All applications must be accompanied by a cover letter and
résumé.
