About the Position

Ever wanted an Academic Advisor job where $67,000 - $106,000 comes with autonomy instead of a longer leash? Read on; DigitalWave is hiring in Elgin, IL. This Elgin opening trades 5 years and Professionalism for $67,000 - $106,000, then layers on the ownership most listings only hint at.

Key Responsibilities

  • Coordinate scheduling, resources, and logistics for assigned tasks
  • Convert Decision Making chaos into a backlog someone can actually work
  • Handle confidential information with discretion and sound judgment
  • Leave every general system a little better than you found it
  • Ensure compliance with company policies and applicable IL regulations
  • Keep the DigitalWave backlog ruthlessly honest about what's truly next

What You'll Bring

  • The kind of listening that makes the other person feel heard
  • A collaborative mindset and genuine enthusiasm for teamwork
  • Comfort navigating ambiguity when the brief arrives half-written
  • A communicator who can disagree without making it personal
  • Resilience measured across 5 years of general cycles
  • Experience at the mid-level inside a part-time role
  • The kind of attention to detail that catches what spell-check misses

Since day one, DigitalWave has been on a question-everything mission to reshape general from its base in Elgin, IL. The small-but-mighty pace here is real, but so is the permission to log off and recover.

Beyond the $67,000 - $106,000 headline, we hand you a mentor, room to grow into mid-level work, and the freedom to shape your own week.

Our hiring manager is personally reviewing every Academic Advisor application that comes in.

We hire for hunger as much as resumes, so if that's you, the Academic Advisor role is open.
