Job Story
Are you part strategist, part technician, and 100% passionate about connecting people to the right information at the right time? Do you thrive at the intersection of planning, technology, and human impact? If you’re the kind of person who has insight—and loves diving into how messages actually move people—then we want you on our team.
We’re looking for a primed, eager professional to become the central hub for all outbound communication efforts from OneStop and our other student service partners. In this unique role, you’re not just writing messages—you’ll coordinate campaigns, fine-tune communication systems, and guide campus partners in streamlining the way we connect with students and our community, all while jumping in to help the OneStop team. Think of this like a marketer consultant with a mission—you’ll help us plan, adapt, and improve existing scripts, tools, and campaigns across platforms and various departments. This isn’t a “behind-the-scenes” job either as you’ll work directly with departments figures, serving as a consultant, collaborator, and thought partner in how we communicate clearly and effectively.
We’re looking for someone who understands how technology interacts with people—who can think like a user and operate like a systems analyst. We want someone who can interpret data pulls, recognize patterns, and help others understand what the numbers are saying. You’ll train other staff, keep everyone aligned on updates, and act as a kind of internal “newsletter,” making sure departments are informed and synced.
If you’re naturally curious, solution-oriented, and excited about how AI and automation are shifting the ways we support students—this is your chance to get in front of it. You’ll be helping us transition not only communications, but mindsets, towards more efficient and responsive student communications.
This Role is Perfect for Someone Who:
• Can manage the execution of communication campaigns while thinking about the strategy behind them.
• Has a knack for simplifying complex information and translating department needs into student-friendly messaging.
• Enjoys working across teams and building consensus around updates and shared platforms.
• Understands enough about tech, automation, data and AI to adapt and evolve—not just follow them.
• Someone who desires a non-traditional marketing mixed with student services as a whole.
