Fulbright Scholars travel to 165 countries to teach, research, and engage in ways that promote peace and understanding. Returning scholars and other alumni join the FA to magnify the impact of the Fulbright experience by advocating for the program to Congress and by offering international educational programs: community outreach, events sponsored by 50 chapters nationwide, a national conference, and &#8220;impact&#8221; travel. The FA also awards the prestigious Fulbright Prize to world leaders. Previous recipients include Nelson Mandela, Jimmy Carter, Bill and Melinda Gates, and Doctors without Borders.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">This year, the FA is focused on expanding advocacy efforts, working with chapters to share the Fulbright experience with communities nationwide, expanding membership with clear messaging and marketing, piloting a networking portal for members, developing an enriched digital presence in social media, and supporting chapters through development grants and other services. Chapter Relations and Membership will play a vital role in the success of the Association, helping to raise the profile of the Fulbright community, to drive membership and engagement, and to ensure the effectiveness of advocacy and educational programs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\"><strong>POSITION<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">Reporting to and in partnership with the Executive Director, with a dotted reporting line to the Deputy Director, the Manager will support chapters and members in ways that are contemporary, dynamic, creative and measurable in impact. We welcome applications from dedicated, hard-working and detail-oriented professionals who have worked with dispersed and varied stakeholders, and who believe in the mission of international exchange and understanding. The Manager plays a central role in helping the Association realize a growing vision of chapter engagement focused on community outreach and grassroots advocacy for the Fulbright program. S\/he will help drive individual membership growth and satisfaction in outreach and advocacy, as well, providing strong and effective operational management.<!--more--><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\"><strong>RESPONSIBILITIES<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">Role and Responsibilities: Chapter Relations<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000\">Oversee and manage chapter relations for the FA, providing guidance and assistance to leaders in 50 chapters nationwide, including support for program development, event planning, and board governance and elections.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000\">Supporting and in coordination with the Chapter Advisory Board, organize and provide regular training sessions, online and in person, to chapter leaders in areas such as governance, program development, community outreach and political advocacy.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000\">Help chapter leaders to focus resources on community outreach and grassroots advocacy by building relations with partner institutions, preparing presentation materials, and identifying sponsors.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000\">Provide guidance and assistance in the formation of new chapters, supporting founders as they adopt bylaws, recruit and provide orientation to other leaders, and launch programming.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000\">Administer and manage grants received by the FA to support chapter development, including the proposal process, selection of awards, oversight of programmatic requirements, and reporting to grant providers.
