The Koch Associate Program (KAP) is a career accelerator for early to mid-career professionals with a drive to tackle our country’s most pressing challenges in more effective, principled ways. KAP equips associates with the tools, mindsets, and community to succeed as social entrepreneurs—individuals excited to find new and better ways to break barriers and eliminate injustice. Associates spend one day each week engaging in experiential learning with Stand Together Fellowships and work at one of our many partner organizations the rest of the week. Our curriculum is designed to supercharge your development and equip you for long-term success as you seek to have an impact on the problems that prevent people from realizing their potential.  

Since 2008, the Notre Dame International Security Center (NDISC) has provided a forum for national security scholars at the University of Notre Dame and elsewhere to come together to explore the most pressing issues in national security policy. Through research, teaching, and public affairs programming, NDISC aims to connect policymakers and the public with the very best scholarship in the academy on issues of international security, broadly defined.

This position will support the Notre Dame International Security Center by creating brand awareness to engage current and potential customers by assisting with our social media and print efforts. Duties include spearheading marketing & outreach (including managing our contract with an outside communication firm), overseeing and drafting center communications, and website updates, identifying newsletter content, lead support for the Center’s podcasting, and developing a platform for the annual Notre Dame Day. This role will also provide general support for other Center activities as needed.

This role will be in person, in Notre Dame, IN.
