Emily Vickery, who was hired as the college’s receptionist soon after graduating from Welch College in 2016, recently announced her departure. Emily and her husband Zach, a 2017 inaugural graduate of Welch’s M.A. program in Theology and Ministry, are relocating to England for Zach to continue his education at the University of Cambridge.
Craig Mahler, Vice President for Financial Affairs, stated, “Emily is to be commended for serving with grace and consistency in this vital role especially during the college’s recent relocation to Gallatin.” He adds, “While we will miss her, the college family is excited for this opportunity for Zach to continue his education.”
Mahler continued, “We invite anyone with interest in this full-time position to apply immediately.” Candidates must show strength in hospitality and interpersonal relations, while understanding the importance of first impressions. The right candidate will be detail-focused, self-starting, and a multi-tasking learner who warmly greets guests and answers and transfers calls. This position also provides administrative support to the Business Office and other departments. Other responsibilities will be assigned by the Vice President for Financial Affairs and Staff Accountant.
