University of Texas at El Paso Looking for Assistant Vice President for Advancement Communications (Hybrid/Remote Location) Full Time

Aspen Leadership Group is proud to partner with the University of Texas at El Paso in the search for an Assistant Vice President for
Advancement Communications.

Reporting to the Associate Vice President for Strategy & Engagement, the Assistant Vice President for
Advancement Communications will be an experienced, strategic leader with a track record of success. As the University of Texas at El Paso
(UTEP) builds out its advancement team, it is seeking a highly collaborative leader to take ownership over all parts of a long-term
advancement strategy for the University, and manage and enhance its existing Communications team, which includes areas such as marketing and
communications, stewardship communications, and annual giving. The Institutional Advancement division is hybrid (a combination of on- and
off-campus). Institutional Advancement strongly prefers a candidate within a commutable distance from campus but will consider remote
candidates. Employees working remotely are expected to travel to El Paso with some regularity.

The Assistant Vice President will plan
and execute a data-driven strategic communications program that drives philanthropic engagement and donations. This will involve setting and
tracking goals and metrics that map to IA’s broader strategy, mentoring and guiding a team of communications and design professionals,
and managing projects and campaigns with varying budgets and timelines. The Assistant Vice President will also collaborate closely with the
University Marketing and Communications team (UMC) and serve public relations functions for IA, including providing proactive and reactive
messaging strategies. While we are looking for someone who can provide strong creative vision and leadership, we are also looking for
someone who understands the importance of effective project management practices to the process.
