Position Summary:
The Division of University Housing is committed to providing an exceptional workplace for its workforce of approximately 450 career staff members and over 2,000 students. University Housing provides an inclusive and safe working environment that promotes engagement, empowerment, and professional development. University Housing operates nineteen residence halls across the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus, providing a home to over 7,500 undergraduate students. We also operate three apartment communities, serving about 2,500 graduate students, academic staff, postdoctoral researchers, faculty, and their families. In addition, we manage seven dining venues across campus, and provide conference group and youth camp housing throughout the summer months.

University Housing is divided into five main departments: Administration, Dining & Culinary Services, Residence Hall Facilities, Residence Life, and University Apartments. Whether we're launching new academic support services, testing out a new recipe, renovating resident rooms, organizing welcome events, cleaning our facilities, or inviting a new summer youth camp to campus, everything that we do is to support the mission of the University and fulfill University Housing's goal to be, "The place everyone wants to live."

The University Housing Administrative departments provide residential accommodations, programs, and services to actively support the mission of the University; meet the needs of students, families, staff, and guests; and foster the development of residential communities.

The person in this position has responsibility for developing communications strategy, writing, and production of University Housing marketing materials and web sites, as well as the responsibility to advise faculty, staff, and students and recommend appropriate marketing and communication strategies.

A comprehensive understanding of college students' residential experience and families' needs during the transition to life on campus will allow this person to effectively conceive and implement public relations and marketing strategies to enhance the academic mission of the University within the unique setting of University Residence Halls and University Apartments.
