WHAT IS A CAMPUS CEO? 
The Campus CEO is the lead brand marketing intern at UVA. It is the person who bridges the gap between EATS2SEATS and the student body. You'll work directly with EATS2SEATS leadership to grow our brand at UVA through relationship-building, creative outreach, digital marketing, and being the kind of person other Students can trust.  
 
You will not just be promoting a job; you will build a presence on campus. 
 

YOUR MISSION 

• Market EATS2SEATS to fellow students
• Build awareness on and around The Corner/campus 
• Grow a community of students who want real, flexible income 
• Promote upcoming work opportunities at events students already care about 
• Create excitement around game day 
• Generate signups through creative, authentic marketing 
• Establish EATS2SEATS as a recognized and respected brand at UVA
  
   

WHAT YOU'LL ACTUALLY DO 

• Manage a multichannel marketing strategy, including creating short-form videos for 
  Instagram and TikTok, brainstorming new/creative concepts, designing graphics/flyers, and more 
• Post flyers and recruiting materials in high-traffic spots (Newcomb Hall, Clemons Library, Student Activities Building)   
• Build and manage relationships with student organizations across campus
• Lead/attend tabling events and UVA Student Affairs activities 
• Become a go-to resource for students who want flexible income around their class schedule 
• Help connect students with work opportunities at events across the region 
• Lead a team of brand ambassadors 

Game Day Leadership 
One of the best parts of this role is being a Campus CEO on game day.
You will: 

• Attend staff check-in and welcome team members 
• Create energy and set the tone for the shift 
• Capture photos and short-form video content
• Conduct quick on-the-ground interviews
• Support EATS2SEATS culture and represent the brand well
• Help make every team member feel like showing up was worth it

You are not required to work the event itself; your job is to make people glad they signed up and make them excited to be a part of gameday at UVA. 
 
Creative Marketing 

We want builders, not just participants. Examples of what we're looking for: 

• Social content strategy and ideas that actually resonate with UVA students 
• recruiting challenges or referral campaigns tied to campus culture 
• Tabling events and student organization partnerships 
• Campus activations that make people stop and ask questions 
• Guerrilla marketing that gets people talking on social media, YikYak, or in group chats 

If you have an idea, we want to hear it. We reward creativity, initiative, and ownership. 
 
 

WHAT WE PROVIDE: 
You will not be doing this alone. EATS2SEATS provides everything you need to build the brand on campus: 
 

• EATS2SEATS merchandise 
• Flyers and QR codes 
• Recruiting materials 
• Marketing support and training 
• Mentorship and leadership development 
• Access to real-world marketing experts  
   

COMPENSATION 

• Game Day Leadership Pay: Earn approximately $75–$100 per game day, simply for showing up, supporting check-in, building culture, and creating energy.  
• Recruiting Commission: Earn $5 per verified signup, plus an additional $5 when that person works their first event. 

50 students sign up and work → You earn $500+ 
100 students sign up and work → You earn $1,000+ 
 
There is no cap on recruiting commissions. The more people you connect with opportunities, the more you earn. 

 

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE 

• Consistent, growing signup numbers semester over semester 
• Strong name recognition for EATS2SEATS across campus
• A network of reliable student workers who keep coming back to events 
• Becoming a trusted connector between students and opportunities 
• A role you can confidently put on a resume, materials to add to your portfolio, and tangible skills you can talk about in an interview 
  
   

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR 
UVA attracts some of the most driven students in the country. We are looking for someone who reflects that, someone who is: 
 

• Outgoing and genuinely comfortable starting conversations with strangers 
•  ​Self-motivated: You manage your own time without being micromanaged 
• Reliable and consistent, not just energetic in week one 
• Creative and willing to try approaches that have not been done before 
• Competitive and tracking results, not just activity 
• ​Enthusiastic about UVA campus culture 
• Excited to learn new things and connect with new people 
   

Bonus points if you have sales or marketing experience, love game day environments, or are already plugged into campus organizations. 
 
WHAT YOU'LL GAIN 
This role is designed to give you something real to show for your time; it’s not just a line item on a resume but skills and experience that hold up in an interview. You will build hands-on experience in: 
 

• Marketing and brand management 
• Recruiting and sales 
• Leadership and event operations 
• Content creation (including content planning, copywriting, videography, graphic design, and more)  
  
   

THE IDEAL CAMPUS CEO 
The ideal Campus CEO at UVA is not simply the person who already knows everyone, but the person who is willing to talk to anyone. Someone who cares about making the most of their time here, and not just in the classroom.  
 
If that sounds like you, we'd love to meet you.
