Full Job Description
Responsibilities

Enablement Tools & Content

  • Own the content on the Microsoft Give site and manage how the team's content and tools are distributed, so employees and partner teams can find what they need and act.


  • Design and maintain the playbooks, toolkits, and self-service resources that let teams plan and run their own campaigns, events, and volunteer experiences.


  • Integrate AI and other productivity tools into how content and resources are created, personalized, and delivered, so enablement scales without scaling the team.


  • Develop storytelling tools and guidance, in partnership with cross-functional teams, that help employees and nonprofit partners share their impact authentically and on brand and gather feedback to continuously improve the resources they rely on.


  • Lead the team's Viva Engage community, keeping employees informed, inspired, and connected to ways to give and volunteer between campaign moments.


Go-to-Market & Business Integration

  • Partner with Global Employee Engagement leadership on the go-to-market approach for the team's programs and campaigns: define the audiences, messages, channels, and moments that bring giving and volunteering to employees across the enterprise.


  • Partner with priority business groups, regions, and employee networks to embed giving and volunteering in how they already work, so activation is led by the business rather than routed through the central team.


  • Serve as a trusted advisor to partner teams, understanding their priorities and translating them into engagement plans and resources.


Recognition & Signature Events

  • In partnership with HR and Communications, design recognition and incentive programs that make employee generosity visible and celebrated.


  • Lead the planning and production of signature recognition events, including galas and flagship moments, from concept and run-of-show through execution and follow-up.


  • Plan and deliver brand moments, from campaign launches to relaunch, in collaboration with the wider team.


Campaign Calendar & Champion Networks

  • Build and manage the integrated campaign and activation calendar for campus, Washington State, and global moments, so campaigns, events, and communications reinforce one another.


  • Support employee champion networks with the training, resources, and communications they need to activate locally year-round.


  • Develop and execute project plans, timelines, and budgets, and define the measures that show the reach and value of enablement.
