(Career Progress) HIRING: Program Manager

The position will work to engage colleges and universities in developing and deepening cultures of nonpartisan democratic engagement (defined as civic learning + voter participation + ongoing engagement in democracy). Specifically, the Program Manager is responsible for recruiting and building relationships with colleges and universities in the United States. The Program Manager maintains and organizes ALL IN's recognition opportunities for participating campuses and their stakeholders. The Program Manager also provides managerial and thought leadership to ALL IN's community of practice program, working with campus cohorts.

Through an intentionally-designed program that provides structure, support, and recognition, ALL IN works to improve nonpartisan civic learning, voter participation, and ongoing engagement in democracy at more than 1,000 colleges and universities nationwide. ALL IN believes higher education should play a role in developing an active and informed citizenry by educating students, motivating them to engage in American democracy, and instilling the value of lifelong participation.

ABOUT CIVIC NATION

We shift culture, systems and policy by bringing together individuals, grassroots organizers, industry leaders and influencers to tackle some of our nation's most pressing social challenges.

  • Manage a network of higher education institutions, including recruitment of new campuses, onboarding campuses and primary contacts, ongoing campus-specific communications, and supporting overall engagement in the ALL IN program. 
  • Manage campus and individual awards programming.
  • Manage agenda setting, campus engagement, and regular conversations with institutions within and interested in ALL IN's Community of Practice program. 
  • Contribute to ALL IN's digital engagement (e.g., webinars) opportunities across programs and collaborating with Students Learn Students Vote (SLSV) Coalition partners doing similar work. 
  • Collaborate with team members to provide updated content for program and funding reports, as well as for campus resources and toolkits.
  • Support ALL IN's involvement with the Ask Every Student program. 
  • Participate in the action plan review process and provide feedback on campus action plans.
  • Support new civic discourse programming.
  • Contribute to student-facing programs and initiatives, including supporting nonpartisan student voting groups.
  • Organize virtual and in-person events such as regional campus voting summits, trainings, and webinars. Represent the ALL IN program at conferences, trainings, and events.
  • Cross-collaborate with Civic Nation hub teams to ensure cohesive, comprehensive, and efficient efforts to achieve relevant ALL IN program goals
  • Support the intern experience by way of recruitment, project engagement, and professional development.
  • Comfortability with the ability to travel and represent ALL IN and Civic Nation at conferences, events, and campus visits (approximately 20% of time.)
  • Other reasonable and related duties as assigned.

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS

  • 3+ years of experience in field organizing, nonpartisan democratic engagement, and/or higher education.
  • 1+ year of experience working directly with college students, faculty, or staff.
  • Demonstrated experience with event planning, communications, and/or fundraising.
  • Experience with data management. 
  • Experience with content creation processes and tools to draft graphics, toolkits, and reports.
