Now is the perfect time to join Auburn Advancement, a dynamic team encompassing Operations and Strategy, Culture and Talent, Engagement, Philanthropy, and Communications. Under the visionary leadership of Senior Vice President Rob Wellbaum - a seasoned and respected advancement professional - our organization is set to revolutionize the future of Advancement. 

The Auburn University College of Agriculture traces its roots back to 1872, when the Alabama Agricultural and Mechanical College was established as a land-grant institution. Throughout its history, the college has helped advance the agricultural industry and strengthen communities across Alabama and around the world. Today, the college offers 13 undergraduate majors and 23 graduate programs to prepare the next generation of agricultural leaders. Its faculty also hold appointments within the Alabama Agricultural Experiment Station and the Alabama Cooperative Extension System, where they conduct innovative research and work hand-in-hand with producers and communities throughout the state. This position reports jointly to the Assistant Vice President of Philanthropy and the Dean of the College of Agriculture.

The nature of this role is highly externally focused, requiring frequent travel and meetings on and off campus during regular and non-traditional business hours, and is therefore expected to operate with high-levels of autonomy.
