Who We Are

For 20+ years, the ADVANCE Program has pioneered research and programming aimed at improving faculty recruitment, climate, retention, and leadership development. Beginning in 2002 with an ADVANCE Institutional Transformation grant from the National Science Foundation and transitioning to Provost's Office funding in 2007, the nationally recognized program serves all U-M faculty on campus in four distinct areas:

Recruitment - development, and use of equitable recruiting practices
Workplace Climate - focused on the improvement of unit climate
Retention - preemptive strategies to prevent the loss of valued faculty
Leadership Development - skill and career development for faculty leaders at all levels

Our 15+ person team supports these four areas through research and evaluation, programming, and administration efforts. The ADVANCE Program is committed to the University of Michigan's core values. Visit our website to learn more about our work and the team.

Job Summary

In this position, you will provide highly visible and essential meeting and event management for the ADVANCE Program. You will work closely with the team, project managers, and faculty leads to execute an average of 3-5 total events per month (one generally a larger scale "event," with the rest being smaller scale "meetings"). These events will support a wide range of ADVANCE programs, including our faculty Networks, Launch, RISE, STRIDE Committees, U-M's Presidential Postdoctoral Fellowship Program, internal team meetings and events, and other ADVANCE initiatives. Some of these events are fully in-person, others are fully virtual, and some are hybrid. Events are Monday through Friday, with some scheduled in the evening. You will also contribute to defining and developing core programming content for ADVANCE in collaboration with leadership and programming team colleagues, focusing on innovative ideas and approaches to engage with our faculty networks and other ADVANCE initiatives.
