LMC administers approximately eight public events per year. The Center also co-sponsors and collaborates in the production of campus lectures, panel discussions, and community-based cultural events and lectures that actively engage the local Santa Barbara community as well as an international audience through virtual programming. As the Co-Directors often shift in the directorship and conceptual implementation of particular events, usually mandated by areas of expertise, the Associate Director assists whichever Director at the helm and typically serves as the central manager for the practical execution of such events, coordinating publicity and overseeing the organizational pieces required for successful outcomes by directing tasks and timelines for student volunteers and staff.

The AD is also responsible for assisting the Co-Directors in implementing research and community engagement opportunities for UCSB students and faculty associated with LMC. The AD attends all LMC events (including those that take place on evenings and weekends).

General Administration, Supervision and Grant Writing

In consultation with the Co-Directors, the AD hires, trains, and supervises the part-time student employees and staff of Las Maestras Center. The AD assists the Co-Directors with the management of existing budget lines. A primary role of the AD is to facilitate the programmatic and financial growth of LMC through developing grant applications, identifying relevant foundation opportunities, and cultivating LMC's community of individual donors.

Community Relations

The Associate Director assists, Co-Director, Celia Herrera Rodriguez in cultivating and solidifying collaborative relationships with Latinx community groups in Santa Barbara, as well as with more mainstream Arts/Cultural organizations and foundations that may be interested in providing space and/or funding opportunities for projects in Santa Barbara. The AD also manages organizational relations with LMC's community and collegiate partners.

Program Analysis and Evaluation

The AD analyzes LMC's budget and prepares regular and ad hoc reports to LMC's Co-Directors on LMC's finances, grant writing and reporting, and program analysis. The AD monitors the demographics of program attendance and works with other campus centers and programs both to coordinate co-sponsored events and to ensure diversity of participants and audience.

The University is especially interested in candidates who can contribute to the diversity and excellence of the academic community through research, teaching, and service as appropriate to the position.
