Job Overview

The Vice President of Enterprise Strategy and External Affairs (VP) will support the development and execution of AUM+’s External Affairs division, strengthening how AUM+ connects its strategy, external relationships, growth, communications, and emerging opportunities in service of the organization’s mission and impact.

Reporting to the Chief Strategy Officer/EVP of External Affairs (CSO), the VP will serve as a senior strategist and builder‑leader with expertise across external affairs, strategic communications, public affairs and advocacy, stakeholder engagement, and relationship management. The VP must bring demonstrated experience building long‑term strategic roadmaps while simultaneously advancing near‑term, minimum viable priorities and leading a continually evolving organization. This builder‑stage approach will serve two purposes: delivering against current priorities and generating learning needed to make informed decisions about the long‑term ownership, capacity and resourcing of emerging capabilities.

The VP will help translate the Chief Strategy Officer’s vision for External Affairs and Strategy into clear priorities and a phased work plan with measurable outcomes, clear deliverables, and timelines, In Addition to recommendations regarding external capabilities, resources, and structure.

The enduring portfolio will evolve as the strategy and External Affairs model take shape. This role is being hired while AUM+ is actively shaping both its enterprise strategy and External Affairs model. The precise team structure, staffing, external resources, and areas of delegated authority will therefore develop alongside that work rather than being fully predetermined at the time of hire.

This is a Vice President‑level role with meaningful responsibility and latitude. The VP will be expected to lead defined bodies of work, make recommendations to senior leadership, represent AUM+ in delegated external settings, and manage projects and external resources within agreed parameters.

The VP will work particularly closely with the Chief Strategy Officer/EVP of External Affairs and will collaborate extensively with the CEO, EVP of Internal Affairs/COO, the VP for Growth & Impact, and other leaders across AUM+.

In the first phase, success will center on two interconnected priorities:…
