Join us in the important work of forming disciples of Jesus Christ through community, faith, knowledge, and service. Peoria Notre Dame High School has an opening for an admissions and marketing assistant for the 2026-27 school year and beyond to serve our school community through promotion of the school as a whole on digital platforms and directly with prospective and current families.

At PND, you'll have the opportunity to work alongside faculty and staff members committed to bettering themselves professionally and as Christians. We know we can't share what we don't have, and therefore we offer ample opportunities for our faculty and staff to strengthen their spiritual lives through daily Mass, daily adoration and confession, biweekly faith formation meetings, an annual faculty retreat, and All School Mass.

Many of the benefits of working at PND are visible: competitive salary, health and dental benefits, a 403b match program, and tuition discounts for your children at our partner schools and at PND. Many benefits are not as visible: young people who are respectful and engaged, small teacher-to-student class sizes, and the opportunity to be part of a Catholic community with a rich history and a united mission.

Priority will be given to candidates who hold an associate's or bachelor's degree in communications, marketing, or graphic design and who eagerly share their love for Christ and Catholic education with others. We're seeking individuals who love to work collaboratively with various stakeholders to ensure consistent, professional, and engaging communication across all platforms; work in an innovative, creative, and organized manner; and provide dynamic website management, social media content, digital communications, and admissions support.
