Position Overview
KU Marketing serves the University of Kansas and its many stakeholders by engaging external people for mutual benefit. We support many service lines across the university including student recruitment, branding, conferences & events, professional development programming, student services, and many more. This role leads several key pieces of these exciting marketing opportunities and the resulting benefits to students, employees, Kansans and the members of our local and regional community.
KU’s director of partner services & digital engagement delivers in three key areas.
First, the role leads the team that is the primary interface between KU Marketing and its internal University of Kansas partners, including strategy development, planning, regular communications in support of the delivery of marketing services, and results tracking and reporting. KU Marketing is not a vendor or supplier to other KU units, but rather a strategic partner working toward shared goals. KU’s director of partner services & digital engagement and the strategists reporting to the role engage in strategy development and regular communications with partners. Those communications include proactive notifications and issue avoidance, work reviews and approvals, status updates, change requests, financial and labor budget statuses, and KPI and results reporting.
Second, the role oversees the execution of digital tactics in support of Marketing’s plans and partner goals. Vital to the success of partner relationships and strategy are execution, tracking, analysis and reporting. For that reason and others, the digital experience team reports to this role as do the analysts within KU Marketing. The digital marketing functions that report to this role include digital advertising, KU Marketing’s portion of CRM utilization and marketing automation, email production, website design and development, and search engine optimization.
Third, the director of partner services & digital engagement collaborates with other teams and functions within Marketing and occasionally external vendors for brand alignment, creative services, project and resource management, and more to deliver upon strategies and plans. The director is a senior leader within KU Marketing, working on broad strategies and advising the chief marketing officer on varied topics.
KU Marketing is the central marketing unit at the university. It directly acts on KU’s strategic plan and institutional branding while also serving diverse internal partners. Key partners, and therefore work, include recruitment marketing for credit-bearing (e.g., degrees) and non-credit programs (e.g., professional development) delivered in several locations and modalities, conference and event services, on-campus events, student and campus services, economic development, KU affiliates, and others. KU Marketing offers a full complement of marketing services including copywriting, editing, design, video, photo and digital. Tactics delivered include digital and print advertising, direct mail, social media, email, webpages, CRM support and marketing automation, printed materials, research, press releases, and others.
The director of partner services & digital engagement reports to KU’s chief marketing officer.

Full Time
Director of Partner Services & Digital Engagement Marketing
Position Overview
KU Marketing serves the University of Kansas and its many stakeholders by engaging external people for mutual benefit. We support many service lines across the university including student recruitment, branding, conferences & events, professional development programming, student services, and many more. This role leads several key pieces of these exciting marketing opportunities and the resulting benefits to students, employees, Kansans and the members of our local and regional community.
KU’s director of partner services & digital engagement delivers in three key areas.
First, the role leads the team that is the primary interface between KU Marketing and its internal University of Kansas partners, including strategy development, planning, regular communications in support of the delivery of marketing services, and results tracking and reporting. KU Marketing is not a vendor or supplier to other KU units, but rather a strategic partner working toward shared goals. KU’s director of partner services & digital engagement and the strategists reporting to the role engage in strategy development and regular communications with partners. Those communications include proactive notifications and issue avoidance, work reviews and approvals, status updates, change requests, financial and labor budget statuses, and KPI and results reporting.
Second, the role oversees the execution of digital tactics in support of Marketing’s plans and partner goals. Vital to the success of partner relationships and strategy are execution, tracking, analysis and reporting. For that reason and others, the digital experience team reports to this role as do the analysts within KU Marketing. The digital marketing functions that report to this role include digital advertising, KU Marketing’s portion of CRM utilization and marketing automation, email production, website design and development, and search engine optimization.
Third, the director of partner services & digital engagement collaborates with other teams and functions within Marketing and occasionally external vendors for brand alignment, creative services, project and resource management, and more to deliver upon strategies and plans. The director is a senior leader within KU Marketing, working on broad strategies and advising the chief marketing officer on varied topics.
KU Marketing is the central marketing unit at the university. It directly acts on KU’s strategic plan and institutional branding while also serving diverse internal partners. Key partners, and therefore work, include recruitment marketing for credit-bearing (e.g., degrees) and non-credit programs (e.g., professional development) delivered in several locations and modalities, conference and event services, on-campus events, student and campus services, economic development, KU affiliates, and others. KU Marketing offers a full complement of marketing services including copywriting, editing, design, video, photo and digital. Tactics delivered include digital and print advertising, direct mail, social media, email, webpages, CRM support and marketing automation, printed materials, research, press releases, and others.
The director of partner services & digital engagement reports to KU’s chief marketing officer.
