    Dear colleagues,

    We are accepting applications for the position of Assistant Project Manager
    for HumetricsHSS and MESH Research in the College of Arts and Letters at
    Michigan State University.

    We have created a short powerpoint presentation that explains the position
    and what we are looking for (go.cal.msu.edu/pm2020).

    The full description and posting are available at
    https://careers.msu.edu/en-us/job/503210/specialist-outreachfixed-term.

    *Position Description Extract*

    “The College of Arts & Letters (CAL) and the Libraries at Michigan State
    University seek an Academic Specialist – Outreach to fill the *Assistant
    Digital Projects Manager* role supporting the efforts of the HuMetricsHSS
    initiative and the MESH research team. This is a full-time 12-month
    position with an expectation of annual renewal. The ideal candidate will be
    an excellent communicator with outstanding organizational skills.

    The position will work to provide outreach to the academic community and
    beyond to support research and work associated with new models for
    documenting, understanding, and rewarding academic work and digital
    scholarly communications. The position reports jointly to HuMetricsHSS and
    to MESH.

    […]

    The successful candidate will have experience in event planning,
    participation in and coordination of digital projects, a record of
    successful collaboration with teams that are geographically dispersed, an
    understanding of digital humanities and other digital projects and their
    workflows within an academic setting, and excellent written, verbal, and
    interpersonal communication skills.

    The College of Arts & Letters (CAL) and MSU Libraries promote an academic
    and organizational culture that actively seeks out and strengthens diverse
    voices and perspectives among its members to achieve excellence. We are
    interested in candidates of all backgrounds who are committed to the
    principle that intellectual leadership is achieved through open access and
    proactive inclusion. We seek candidates with integrity and a strong work
    ethic, who possess an understanding of what it takes to continuously
    improve and maintain research projects within a major academic research
    institution. We particularly welcome applications from women, people of
    color, LGBTQI individuals, and others who are traditionally
    underrepresented in the academy. We invite you to apply even if you have
    not currently mastered all of the skills listed. We seek someone with the
    ability to collaborate and to expand their technical skillset in creative
    ways; we’re happy to discuss whether you are a good fit for this role.”

    Review of applications begins next week, but we will continue to welcome
    applications until the position is filled.

    Thanks,
    Kristen
