Job description

Overview
The Wisconsin Foundation and Alumni Association (WFAA), the private fundraising and alumni relations organization for UW-Madison, seeks a dynamic Program Manager for Alumni Communities. This position manages WFAA's international alumni chapter network, providing oversight, volunteer engagement and facilitating administrative support. The Program Manager leads processes, resources, training, and communications that enable a strong, sustainable volunteer-led program; builds and maintains positive relationships with international alumni leaders; establishes best practices for engagement; and ensures alignment with WFAA and university priorities.
Under the leadership of the Senior Managing director, the Program Manager collaborates with campus partners in advancing UW-Madison's international engagement and advancement goals may include serving as project manager for divisionally sponsored events and activities.

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.
