Mission: The mission of the Ortner Family Foundation is to serve the Catholic Church, the renewal of Catholic liberal education, and other endeavors that lead to human flourishing.

The Foundation operates two websites: Run With Saints and Catholic School Playbook.

Run With Saints is a platform that helps high school juniors and seniors to better understand the Catholic community at the colleges and universities they are considering attending. The site collects and shares reviews from current college students and recent college graduates. The primary goal of the site is to help students decide where to attend college and to identify groups and professors to seek out once they arrive on campus. A secondary goal is to inspire colleges and universities to better support their Catholic students.

 

Catholic School Playbook is an online resource designed to help anyone interested in strengthening Catholic schools, including school leaders, pastors, superintendents, teachers, and parents. Compiled from interviews with leaders of thriving Catholic schools across the country, the Playbook shares best practices in all areas, including mission, teacher training, admissions, and fundraising. The full text of the Playbook can be read online or downloaded to be read offline. The site features a popular blog that explores topics of interest to Catholic educators and parents.
 

Job Description and Responsibilities: The Project Manager for Run with Saints is responsible for strengthening and growing the site by:

 

• Increasing student reviews

• Creating and updating college pages

• Cultivating relationships with Catholic ministries 

• Promoting the site on social media

 

Proficiency with Wordpress and Hubspot is required but can be learned on the job.

 

Essential Attributes: Applicants must have high integrity, effective communication skills, a strong work ethic, and the ability to produce excellent work independently.

 

Ideal Candidate: The position is ideal for a recent college graduate who is interested in advancing the mission of the Ortner Family Foundation.

 

Salary: Salary is commensurate with experience. A recent college graduate should expect a starting salary of $50,000 and five weeks per year of paid holidays and vacation days.
