About the Role
We’re looking for a creative, outgoing, and food-loving individual to join our on-campus dining team at UPEI as a Student Engagement & Social Media Coordinator.
In this hands-on, on-site role, you’ll manage and grow the social media presence for the Wanda Wyatt Dining Hall and Samuels Café. You’ll be capturing authentic moments, creating content that makes students crave what’s on the menu, and building real connections in the dining hall.
If you’re passionate about storytelling through food, love being social (online and in person), and have a knack for capturing great photos and videos, this role is for you.
What You’ll Do
Manage multiple social media platforms (Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Snapchat, etc.) for UPEI dining accounts.
Create daily content — posts, stories, reels, carousels, highlights, and more.
Capture and edit short- and long-form videos showcasing dining hall experiences, food features, and special events.
Design and publish graphics, flyers, and menus (both digital and printed) using Canva.
Engage directly with students on campus — run fun, interactive events, collect feedback, and highlight authentic moments.
Collaborate with culinary teams to create visually stunning food content.
Track insights and analytics to understand what’s working and adjust content strategies accordingly.
Maintain a consistent, professional tone that reflects Dana Hospitality’s brand and values.
