    Hello Hello So you're interested in joining us? Welcome, we're happy you're here.

    When you join Alight, you'll find...

    A team with deep experience in co-designing solutions that create new value around the world. We know we need to always be better, and we believe in the power and abundance of everyday people, everywhere, to change the world with us.

    A culture of radical accountability to our customers - as we help build a meaningful life for and with the displaced, we ask them what they want and then deliver on it.

    An organization that refuses to settle for anything less than delivering human-worthy services.

    If you are looking to be part of a living, breathing, ever-changing organization full of disrupters and doers, then read on

    The Team

    The Marketing and Engagement Team (MET) is comprised of the following departments: Annual Fund, Global Connections (Major Gifts), Partnerships & Government Affairs, Donor Services, Marketing & Communications, and Operations. This role will provide administrative support across all MET teams while sitting within the Operations department.

    You're on a team ambitiously advancing the work of Alight by actively engaging donors, supporters, and partners in a way that is meaningful to them and promotes Alight's work worldwide. We raise Alight's brand awareness and differentiate Alight in the eyes of our customers, partners, and funders so that we can further our impact with displaced people around the globe.

    We strive to represent the diverse communities we serve. Applicants who contribute to this diversity and those who bring lived experience with displacement are strongly encouraged to apply.

    The Role

    The Coordinator, Engagement Operations supports the Marketing and Engagement Team in fulfilling its purpose to raise Alight's visibility, increase private giving, build strategic partnerships, and engage our donors. The successful candidate will thrive in growth environments, be excited about evolving responsibilities, and take initiative to prototype, improve, and build new systems and tools. This role has foundational processes in place which will continue to be built and refined. Reporting to the Manager, Engagement Operations, this position spends most of their time communicating with supporters, donors, and the public, and providing administrative & accounts payable support for all MET Directors. The role serves as a project coordinator for MET donor events and activations, and will facilitate internal communications across MET & Alight.

    Building a shared organization takes time and intention. We will always be becoming Alight, which means your work will evolve as well. As with all of our teammates, we anticipate an agile mindset and workstyle to take on other projects as needed.

    For now, here's how you could anticipate spending your time:
    • Execute administrative & accounts payable support - 40%
      • Complete trip report expenses, credit card reconciliation, and expense reimbursements for MET department Directors with careful attention to aligning charges with budgeted accounts.

    • Coordinate donor events and activations - 30%
      • Collaborate with Global Activator (events manager) to manage all logistics and administrative support for donor events and activations.

      • Oversee day-of logistics for virtual and in-person events, including the Zoom or physical space set up, signage & nametags, vendor management, guest welcome, event run-of-show support, and full strike.
      • Close out events: coordinate follow-up to attendees, document attendance in CRM, process vendor invoices, and coordinate an event retro.
    • Provide welcoming hospitality as Alight's Guest Services liaison - 25%
      • Manage & respond to incoming inquiries to Alight's main phone & emails, and maintain phone tree to guide inquiries efficiently. Develop automated responses to provide immediate answers.
      • Build and maintain relationships with a network of contacts across Alight for the latest updates and information from their teams to efficiently answer inquiries. Leverage this knowledge to inform internal, cross-functional communications.

      • Provide administrative oversight by onboarding, adding, and removing users.
    Role Location: This position is based within driving proximity to the Minneapolis office.
