Executive Director, Marketing and Communications
Executive director job in Chicago, IL
One Million Degrees accelerates community college students' progress on career pathways to economic mobility.
Over 60% of students who start community college do not complete a degree or successfully transfer to a four-year institution. However, 84% of jobs in the US require skills training beyond high school. OMD's holistic support model is designed to support community college students as they work toward degrees and careers. From tutors and coaches to financial assistance and professional development, OMD helps community college students succeed in school, work, and life, transforming their futures and the futures of those around them for generations.
The OMD student support model is rooted in evaluation and evidence: A randomized controlled trial conducted with the University of Chicago Inclusive Economy Lab shows that OMD scholars are 70% more likely to enroll, 94% more likely to persist, 73% more likely to earn a degree.
Currently, OMD serves scholars in all 7 of the City Colleges of Chicago (CCC) and is scaling to reach over 3,000 community college scholars by 2026. In addition to its unique partnership with CCC, OMD partners with employers across industries to build on-ramps to in-demand jobs through internships and apprenticeships. Alongside this direct service work in Chicago, OMD is also experiencing rapid growth working with higher education institutions and additional partners across Illinois and nationwide, supporting them to build holistic student support models.
Through this growing body of work, OMD continues to have a profound impact in Chicagoland while becoming a national model for sustainable, scalable, and systemic change.
OMD Values:
OMD is deeply committed to our core values, as demonstrated in the work we do, our approach to change and growth, and our commitment to our staff.
Equity: We address historical and existing systemic inequities by taking a holistic approach to supporting students on their path to economic mobility.
Excellence: We hold ourselves to a high bar and provide exceptional support so that students are empowered to achieve their ambitions.
Community: We unite around putting students first, collaborating with partners, and celebrating our collective wins.
Learning: We each adapt to a changing world and refine our approach to support students, community members, staff, and stakeholders along the way.
Amplify: We advocate for our students and share what we've learned as leaders in the field.

One Million Degrees seeks an experienced, mission-driven, creative, and detail-oriented Executive Director of Marketing & Communications to lead the organization's brand strategy, storytelling, and communication efforts during a pivotal moment of growth and national expansion. This role drives awareness, engagement, and support for OMD's mission, ensuring consistent and compelling communication across all platforms.
This senior leadership role will shape how OMD communicates its mission and impact in our Chicago hometown and nationally, elevating the lived experiences of community college students to drive change, open doors, and shift how people think about the promise of higher education.
The ideal candidate brings deep expertise in the education ecosystem and a proven track record of building national brands within growing organizations. You understand the power of place-you know how to nurture Chicago-based relationships with community colleges, civic leaders, media, and additional local partners while simultaneously scaling a brand for national impact. You're a systems builder who starts every project by asking: How does this serve our scholars? Grounded in OMD's commitment to social and racial justice, you design marketing strategies that remove barriers, not create them.
