Developing quality resumes, cover letters, and other employment materials to assist participants seeking employment.
Providing outstanding service to all program participants throughout their journey and acting with a non-judgmental approach, demonstrating high levels of unconditional positive regard.
Completing administrative tasks in a timely manner, including receiving referrals, scheduling appointments, returning phone calls and other communications, and documenting all participant interactions.

What We’re Looking For

Bachelor’s degree preferred OR high school diploma/GED plus equivalent experience.
Minimum of one year of experience in career services, case management, workforce development, or social services OR in a related field such as education, healthcare administration, retail or hospitality management, or human resources.
High level of cultural sensitivity, knowledge of trauma-informed approaches, and understanding of equality in workforce development and employment services.
Strong organizational and time management skills, including ability to prioritize urgent or sensitive needs and balance multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
Advanced proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, Word, PowerPoint, SharePoint, Teams) and other technology systems to manage caseload and performance needs.
Valid US Driver’s license.

Compensation & Benefits

Minimum starting salary $46,000+, depending on experience.
Comprehensive benefits package including health, dental, vision, retirement, and generous paid time off.
Monday–Friday schedule, 8:00 AM–4:30 PM. No nights. No weekends.
