Associate Director for Employer Development

The Associate Director for Employer Development strategically manages and develops employer relationships across all industries, ensuring every campus constituent who interfaces with employers — Colleges, Advancement, Alumni Relations, and other institutional partners — moves in a coordinated, unified direction. This position leads the Employer Development team, directly supervising staff responsible for industry-specific employer relationships, part-time and event-based employer engagement, and the strategic growth of new employer partnerships. The Associate Director sets employer development direction and defines employer engagement metrics, owns employer engagement reporting for campus leadership, and serves as the primary point of contact for major employer initiatives arising from across campus — including the Corporate Relations Council, University Advancement, and University Leadership. This position works in close, ongoing coordination with the Associate Director for Experiential Learning — as a peer partner, not a supervisory relationship — to ensure a unified, one-university approach to employer and internship-related opportunities. This position supervises full-time staff and carries budgetary responsibility for the Employer Development team.
