Department: TRIO Student Support Services
FSLA:  Full-time Exempt

What is TRIO Student Support Services and Why Would I Want to Work at Siena Heights University?

It’s about people – our students and our team.

TRIO Student Support Services (SSS) is a holistic student development program dedicated to providing individualized support and academic resources to engage students in their college experience, empower them to persist through challenges, accomplish their goals, and graduate from Siena Heights University. SSS is a federally funded TRIO grant program through the U.S. Department of Education and provides several services that promote academic, personal, and professional success among our student participants; including, but not limited to, holistic one-on-one success coaching, academic advising and course selection, financial literacy education, graduate school and career counseling, and leadership development.

Our students vary in age and background. They are typically first-generation students unfamiliar with the college environment and need assistance navigating throughout their college experience. They need accurate information, clear communication, and an occasional nudge to remain on their path to success.

That is where you come in. As the SSS Program Coordinator, you’ll be working with a caseload of 70-80 participants – each with their distinct story. You will play an integral role from the introductory conversation through each semester, until they walk across the stage at Commencement to receive their degree. You will be their advisor, advocate, and cheerleader.

SSS strives to provide dynamic and impactful support to students through many resources, events, and workshops. You’ll also coordinate and facilitate educational and cultural program events both on-campus and off. These events allow student participants to engage in the social and co-curricular experience found beyond the classroom.

First-year students who choose Siena Heights have the unique opportunity to participate in a year-long program dedicated to their development as students, leaders, and people. The First Year Program encompasses three critical chapters; an introduction, a transition to college, and a community to solidify their support systems. As Program Coordinator, you’ll manage our Summer Scholars Program; a nine-day summer bridge program designed for incoming first-year students. This program will require evening and weekend responsibilities and runs in late July/ early August.

And you’ll be part of a team of like-minded colleagues. Which means you will have a strong network who will support your work on behalf of our students. You will learn from student-centered professionals, who value collaboration and your ideas will be heard.

Your typical day consists of:

• Responding to inquiries from SSS participants via phone, email, text, and virtual or in-person meetings. You’ll discuss degree planning, assist in course selection, provide information about Federal Student Aid, and educate to improve financial and economic literacy, and assist students in applying to graduate school.
• Recruitment, hiring, training, and supervision of student personnel including SSS peer mentors.
• Planning and facilitating cultural programming for program participants in collaboration with other members of the SSS team, typically 8 events per academic year.
• Coordination and administration of the Summer Scholars Program; an intensive bridge program that instructs students on important academic and social skills to help them maximize their success at Siena Heights.
• Attending recruitment events and representing TRIO Student Support Services and collaborating with other SSS team members to ensure the program meets its annual objectives.

We’d love to talk with you if:

• You are passionate about helping people reach their goals.
• Your customer service skills are stellar.
• You can communicate effectively both verbally and in writing.
• Multi-tasking is your middle name.
• You enjoy both working independently and with a team – the best of both worlds!
• You are comfortable in working with Microsoft Office and learning other system platforms.
• You like the challenge of problem solving.
• You would describe yourself as an optimist.
• You have earned a bachelor’s degree or higher.
• Higher Education experience is a plus, but not a deal breaker.
• You can demonstrate an ability to relate to a diverse population of first-generation, low-income, under prepared student, some of whom may have physical and/or learning disabilities.

Specifics of this position:

• A schedule that includes on-site office hours five days a week. The typical workday is in the 8 a.m.– 5 p.m. range.
• There will be occasions when you will need to work outside these hours and will need to travel for educational/cultural programmatic events (evenings/weekends).
• Ability to be dependable in reporting for work as scheduled.
• Ability to lift and carry objects weighing not more than 20lbs and must be able to tolerate moderately changing temperature and humidity levels.

How Can Working at Siena Heights University Benefit Me?

Our mission is to assist people to become more competent, purposeful, and ethical through a teaching and learning environment which respects the dignity of all. This is rewarding work that makes a difference. In addition, Siena Heights University offers a comprehensive benefits package:

• Generous time off, including four weeks of vacation time, sick time, and 14 – 16 paid holidays.
