WHO WE NEED

Our alumni community is an essential part of our story – past, present, and future. With thousands of graduates across Canada and around the world, building connections and creating opportunities for engagement is key to sustaining that community – and ensuring alumni continue to feel valued long after graduation.
Reporting to the Senior Manager, Alumni Communications, we are looking for an Alumni Communications Coordinator to help grow and sustain an active, inclusive, and engaged alumni network. This is an exciting opportunity to join a close-knit team of five within a larger award-winning Marketing & Communications group.
Equal parts communicator, organizer, and community-builder, you will shape a new and growing alumni portfolio, bring forward ideas, and work directly with leaders who trust you to own your projects while supporting your development. You will support the planning and delivery of alumni events, manage social and digital engagement channels, and deliver value to alumni through perks, networking, and career connections.
This is a full time role, currently following a hybrid model working both on-site at our downtown Toronto location and remotely. Occasional travel to other campuses in Ontario, New Brunswick, and British Columbia is required.
