Executive Director will oversee a complex volunteer structure and pipeline as well as reunion giving, student, young alumnae/i, and family

Established in 1885, Bryn
Mawr College was founded to offer a more rigorous education than any then available to women. Like many projects of late
19th-century progressive thinkers, this bold vision embodied emancipatory potential and deep contradictions. From its founding,
Bryn Mawr has prized superb teaching and research. The College offered undergraduate and graduate degrees from the outset, and was the first
women’s college to offer the Ph.D. While the College has been non-denominational for most of its history, Bryn Mawr was founded by
members of the Religious Society of Friends (“Quakers”). Its Quaker legacy can be traced in the costly, principled stands
President Katherine McBride took on behalf of freedom of belief and conscience during the McCarthy era and in the late 1950s and during the
Vietnam War, at times costing the College government financial aid funds. The College’s commitment to social justice has also found
myriad forms of expression on campus, including in the 1914 founding of its Graduate School of Social Work and Social Research, one of the
first in the United States, and the deep engagement of many current students in community service and with social justice
issues.
Bryn Mawr remains a distinguished women’s college, located on a beautiful residential campus just outside a major
metropolitan area. Two distinctive coed graduate schools and a post-baccalaureate premedical program enrich the College community and offer
opportunities for advanced study.
At Bryn Mawr, students choose from a wide array of majors in the sciences, social sciences, and the
humanities. The College is a leader in academic innovation, with a particular focus on putting learning into action through research,
fieldwork, community, and social justice engagement, and internships. Bryn Mawr further expands student’s options to learn and explore
through long-standing partnerships with Haverford and Swarthmore Colleges and the University of Pennsylvania, as well as through the
cultural and social resources of Philadelphia.
Bryn Mawr College provides a rigorous education and encourages the pursuit of
knowledge as preparation for life and work. The traditions of high expectations, academic excellence, civic engagement, and ethical
commitment remain at the core of Bryn Mawr’s identity, expressed today through innovative academic programs and approaches to learning
and among students and alumnae/i who pursue lives of purpose in all fields of endeavor.
Bryn Mawr College’s influence extends
far beyond students’ time on campus. The Bryn Mawr community is unique: academically inspired, civically engaged, and always deeply
committed. Mawrters are agents of change in every arena—forever members of a community founded on respect for the individual. With
connections near and far, Bryn Mawr College’s networks span the globe.
Bryn Mawr College will consider candidates with a broad
range of backgrounds. A bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of education and experience and at least five years of alumnae/i or
constituent relations experience is preferred. All applications must be accompanied by a cover letter and résumé. Cover
letters should be responsive to the mission of Bryn Mawr College as well as the responsibilities and qualifications stated in the
prospectus.
The salary range for this position is $115,000 to $130,000 annually.

In 2019 Bryn Mawr revised its mission statement to assert that “equity and inclusion serve as the engine for excellence and innovation,” and that “a commitment to racial justice and to equity across all aspects of diversity propels our students, faculty, and staff to reflect upon and work to build fair, open, and welcoming institutional structures, values, and culture.” The College recognizes that racial justice and equity are foundational values, and that work to achieve them is urgent as well as an ongoing priority. Bryn Mawr has made focused commitments to anti-racist action and prioritized investments that incorporate critical elements of its existing framework for action.
