Why work at UMF?

UMF is a flexible workplace that supports employee wellbeing. Currently, staff may work in a hybrid-work environment with employees typically working in the office 2 or 3 days a week.

UMF fosters a welcoming environment committed to values of belonging, equity, diversity, and dignity in people and ideas. This work is supported by a strategic plan focused on leadership, culture, talent development and acquisition, and external community engagement.

UMF offers a unique mix of competitive pay, tuition reimbursements and scholarships, as well as superior medical and health-related benefits. We boast a thriving intellectual community that attracts curious and committed colleagues at the heart of a statewide system improving life for millions every day.

Employees at UMF can see how their work impacts the lives of students, patients, and others in the state and beyond. In 2022, we celebrated over 90,000 supporters who collectively gave $453 million to support the university's work — another in a string of record-giving years and the highest total in university history. Whether employees work in face-to-face fundraising, mass marketing, or operations, connection to the organization’s mission consistently ranks high for why employees join and stay at UMF.

UMF is a unique organization based in the Twin Cities–a non-profit, but still part of a state-wide University system with five distinct campuses, providing employees unique opportunities to do fun, creative, and meaningful work.
