For more than 130 years, Post has focused on student success, with thousands of students in online, main campus, undergraduate, and graduate programs. We continuously seek unique talents to lead us in serving our students and each other. Our team boasts diverse backgrounds and expertise, enriching our decision-making with multiple perspectives.

JOB SUMMARY
Within the Division of the Office of Student Finance, the ADP Financial Aid Advisor (FAA) is responsible for working with all online and satellite students related to the tuition process for the university. This position coordinates the different payment options to meet student tuition obligations. The ADP Financial Aid Advisor will provide excellent customer service to students proactively and utilize problem-solving skills to work with students to promote success and retention. The Financial Aid Advisor is also responsible for all financial aid administrative tasks related to online and satellite students, including but not limited to analyzing eligibility, awarding, file verification preparation, document tracking, ISIR review, file organization and auditing, and all other non-counseling financial aid processing tasks.

Under general supervision, the Financial Aid Advisor compiles data for and assesses student eligibility for awarding and related services; reconciles accounts related to student eligibility and disbursement; and troubleshoots to provide resolution to ensure tuition obligations are met. The Financial Aid Advisor will work proactively and utilize problem-solving skills to promote success through enrollment and retention while maintaining compliance with all internal and federal financial aid policies and procedural information.

Internal customer service is extensive and time-sensitive. Individuals with default status on federal student loans are not eligible for this role. Post University currently offers the option to work remotely in this position.

Candidates must plug their equipment into their home router (a 50-foot ethernet cable will be provided by Post). No wireless connections are supported. The home internet minimum requirements are a 25 Mb download speed, a 15 Mb upload speed, and a ping rate of less than 60. The upload speed is essential for a consistent audio connection for the phone system. (Please use the link provided to test your home network speed www.speedtest.net.) Candidates whose home network speed does not meet the minimum requirements can independently contact their ISP to upgrade their service before their confirmed start date.

Whenever working remotely, the candidate's home network must meet the minimum required speed and follow the hardware connection settings determined by their provisioned equipment and department role. Additionally, candidates must have a reliable Internet connection and a designated and private home office or alternative workspace free from noise or distractions.

PRIMARY ACCOUNTABILITIES
BEHAVIORAL EXPECTATIONS (As referenced in The Post Way of Life - Associates' Daily Commitments)
We expect our associates to CARE (Connect-Assess-Resolve-Excite) in every stakeholder interaction. CARE is a framework to guide our every decision and action. CARE also resonates with our diverse associate & student populations - as humans, we know what it means to CARE.

- We CONNECT. We believe relationships matter. Not only do we believe relationships matter, but we also know there is a direct correlation between the quality of our relationships and our outcomes. We invest in our relationships with colleagues, students, and ourselves - we make time to tend to our mental, physical, financial, and professional health.
- We ASSESS. We take the time to understand why something happens or happened fully; we remove assumptions and eliminate confusion or ambiguity by asking questions and creating context, certainty, clarity, and mutual understanding. We collaborate with others throughout the university by understanding their strengths and the value they bring to the tribe. When we encounter conflict, we first seek to understand and then to be understood - and always with respect.
- We RESOLVE. We generate the trust of our colleagues, students, regulatory bodies, and our greater communities by doing the right thing all the time-even when nobody is looking. We honor our promises by following up and following through. We help others learn and grow by sharing information and feedback.
- We EXCITE. "Making It Personal" is the experience we promise to each student and associate, in each and every interaction. Excite is the heart of our experience philosophy. We find ways to Wow, Amaze and Delight others by being resourceful and helpful. We embrace change, take risks and innovate. We celebrate successes and recognize the accomplishments of others.
