Stanford Impact Labs is hiring a Strategic Outreach and Engagement Manager to join the Communications & Outreach (C&O) team. The C&O team works to showcase SIL’s approach to investing in collaboratively-designed solutions, build the initiative’s public reputation and brand, establish an institutional tone and standard for public engagement, and demonstrate a tireless commitment to rigorous research and practical partnerships for public impact. C&O efforts also support individual impact lab teams, faculty, fellows, and scholars in achieving their project-specific outreach and communications goals. The C&O team is responsible for all aspects of public-facing strategic communication, outreach, and engagement for SIL.

In this role, you will develop and implement strategic outreach initiatives, produce events, and run point on editorial operations.

This role will support the Director of Strategic Communications and Outreach at a time of significant opportunity and growth for SIL (and its portfolio of impact labs) as the initiative seeks to emerge on a global stage as a proven, practical model for putting social science to work for society. This is a unique opportunity to play a pivotal role on a close-knit, mission-driven team in creating and distributing content and producing events for an innovative space that crosses into sectors, including higher education, philanthropy, government, and the private sector.

This is a 100% FTE, 1-year fixed-term exempt position. This hybrid position is based on the Stanford campus, 2-3 days every week.

If you believe that this opportunity is a match for your knowledge, skills, and abilities, we encourage you to apply. Thank you for considering employment opportunities with the School of Humanities and Sciences.

Specifically, the Strategic Outreach and Engagement Manager will lead the following areas of work:

• Marketing & Promotion: You will co-create and manage a range of C&O projects designed to meet the needs and growth goals of Stanford Impact Labs. These may include but are not limited to campaigns, special editorial projects, email newsletters, networking efforts, collaborations with peer organizations and other Stanford initiatives, multimedia production, and small and large-scale events both on and off campus. You will establish and operationalize best practices from the ideas stage to distribution, audience development, and metrics tracking.

• Event Planning: You will project manage–from inception to execution–a handful of smaller-scale events and a signature annual convening of scholars, practitioners, funders, and policymakers around social science and evidence-based policy. This includes ownership of event production duties, including vendor management, supply procurement, publicity, scheduling, and mitigation planning.

• Editorial Operations: You will be the central manager of the operations and workflows of SIL’s C&O strategies, including end-to-end project management and quality control, some budget planning and oversight, job tracking and trafficking, analysis of audience engagement, and management of visual, multimedia, and brand assets. You will continuously improve and enforce workflows and monitor budgets. You will be responsible for ensuring all content projects move smoothly, efficiently, and effectively from concept to execution.

• Brand Ownership: You will co-create, hone, and manage the voice of Stanford Impact Labs across content, social, and design channels. You will draft web copy and social posts, co-own SIL’s CRM and CMS, and build relationships with communicators and affiliates across the university.

*Other duties may also be assigned.
