Are you passionate about driving kids toward high paying, in-demand careers or connecting school to work? Are you passionate about STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) education or STEM careers? Would you like to help increase the number of K-12 students interested in or planning on pursuing STEM careers? If you also have a sense of humor, a sense of wonder, and 4-6 hours of time to give each month, then Edheads is the place for you! Edheads is a 501c3 non-profit organization that ties K-12 classroom curricula to real world challenges and careers by providing free games to teachers, students and parents. We are looking for someone for our Board Directors who will organize and prioritize social media processes and communications to increase funding and get the word out about Edheads. We need someone with a proven track record in business social media accounts, who is willing to roll up their sleeves, create posts, determine photo and video needs, perhaps help supervise other volunteers, while also building communications with companies and individuals that can sponsor or donate to help Edheads meet its mission. The best candidate will also be able to work with the rest of the Board on strategic planning to use social media to meet strategic initiatives. Creativity a plus, as we are looking for interesting and unique ways of engaging STEM professionals and raising money on social media. Must have a college education and 3-5 years work experience, and must also be able to regularly attend meetings or events in central Ohio.
