Business Manager | Business Team
The business manager leads the business team, a group of five-to-six responsible for advertising the magazine, organizing fundraisers, tracking and boosting sales, collaborating with local businesses and UC Davis departments, and planning events. The business manager facilitates meetings, works alongside their team members, and liaises between the directors and the business team. We expect the business manager to participate in all corners of the team, although experience in every category is not necessary. They should feel comfortable offering feedback to their peers and managing the team independently. A good business manager will ensure that every member of the business team is producing quality work and meeting their deadlines. Other duties include creating a budget and managing the organization’s financials.
