This position is part-time remote (September to May) and full-time onsite (June to mid-August) at our beautiful campus in the Adirondacks. Compensation is hourly for part-time remote work and salaried at $1,080 per week plus room and board for 9 weeks during the summer.

The Communications Coordinator is responsible for supporting and coordinating Meadow mount’s communications, digital presence, and storytelling across the organization’s website, social media, email communications, media relations, and print materials.

During the summer season, the Coordinator represents Meadow mount at concerts on and off campus and seeks to promote Meadow mount broadly across the Lake Champlain region.

While Meadow mount is in session, this position oversees communications related to concerts, events, and live streams, including the timely production of concert programs. The Communications Coordinator also supports merchandise planning, procurement, inventory, and sales.

Beyond the summer season, the Communications Coordinator continues to support Meadow mount’s Recruitment Campaign and Summer Event Campaign, while maintaining the organization’s ongoing digital and communications activities.

This position supervises students during the summer session and must be comfortable working with students ages 10 to 30.

The position requires strong writing and organizational skills, creativity, attention to detail, strategic thinking, and the ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines in a collaborative environment. Understanding of digital marketing, social media platforms, communications software (Mailchimp, Word Press), design (Adobe Creative Suite), photography, and/or video editing experience are a plus. Knowledge of classical repertoire and string music certainly preferred, as is an enthusiasm for learning on the job and building new skills.
