Job Description

This position is only open to Yale College Students.

The Yale Alumni Association seeks students with a passion for community engagement to help with the planning and execution of the Yale College Reunions!  The Head Clerk role is a critical piece of the reunion team, and involves working before, during, and (in some cases) after the reunion weekends.

Head Clerks must be available for both reunion weekends: May 20-24 & May 27-31.

Head Clerks should expect to work between 35-40 hours per week during reunions.

Additionally, Head Clerks will be expected to work approximately four (4) hours per week beginning April 8th until the start of reunions.

 

Head Clerks assist the YAA Reunion Team with all phases of reunion planning, including (but not limited to): promotion, attendance building, registration, customer service, event management, setup/breakdown, and communicating directly with alumni.  During reunions, Head Clerks take a lead role training other student clerks, and will assist with greeting/assisting attendees, providing campus housing keys, and supporting class programming.

In addition to competitive wages, Head Clerks are eligible to receive meal stipends during reunion weekends as well as post-term housing* from the end of exams until the end of reunions.
