University Partnerships Manager - Midwest
We are:
Wix's Academic Partnerships team. We partner with colleges and universities across the country to help students establish an online presence and learn why it's a critical part of any career path. We teach students and faculty how to build professional websites with Wix through in-person and virtual presentations, workshops, and one-on-one sessions. We develop unique programs and integrations into higher education curricula, lesson plans, and more. On this team, there's never a dull moment!
You are:
An excellent communicator and educator with a good eye for web design. You're a fun and creative presenter who can keep an audience engaged virtually and in person. You're a fast learner with knowledge of current educational technologies, career development trends and web design platforms. You can work independently and with other Wix teams to develop creative training and programming ideas that will help expand our educational efforts. You enjoy building relationships, teaching students and working closely with faculty and career development teams.
Bonus points if you have higher education teaching experience, led career development programs, or if you were a student career coach.
