  • Success Storytelling: Identify "star alumni" and collaborate with the Communications team to produce case studies that attract new donors and partners.

  • Interpersonal Skills: Exceptional "people skills" with the ability to maintain relationships with high-achieving, busy founders.

  • Event Management: Proven ability to plan and execute both virtual and in-person networking events.

  • Communication: Warm, engaging, and professional writing style for newsletters and community updates.
