Title: Career Services Specialist

Status: Full-time, nonexempt, in-person

Pay: $26 - $31 per hour

Schedule: Sunday - Thursday, 11:00am - 7:30pm

Location(s): La Mesa, CA

Urban Street Angels, Inc. (“USA”) is a local non-profit organization founded in 2012 with a mission to end youth homelessness in the San Diego area. Currently, USA operates in three related areas. First, our supportive housing programs provide over 175 beds for transition-aged youth ("TAY" 18 – 24 years old) living on the streets in our community. Second, our rapid re-housing programs effectively bridge graduates of our programs to sustainable, long-term housing. Third, our 5-Tool Trade Academy provides access to vocational training, career pathways, and employment opportunities for TAY in our supportive housing and rapid re-housing programs.

Position Overview: The Career Services Specialist supports transitional age you (TAY) in achieving long-term housing stability through income development, with a focus on trade programs, employment readiness, and job placement. Working under the direction of the Trade School Program Director, this role carries an intensive caseload and collaborates closely with Care Coordinators to ensure youth are progressing toward sustainable income. This position operates within a phased service model. After youth are stabilized in Phase 1, they transition into a focus on employment and income development (Phase 2). The Career Services Specialist leads this phase with a strong emphasis on engagement in the Padres 5 Tool Trade Academy, aligning youth interests with career pathways, and supporting enrollment, participation, and successful program completion. This role is also responsible for building and maintaining strong partnerships and consistent relationships that increase youth participation, program completion rates, and ultimately support youth in achieving independent living with minimal ongoing assistance.

Deliver group workshops for employment readiness, trade pathways, and soft skills
Assist with trade school applications, required documentation, and certification preparation
Build and maintain strong employer partnerships across San Diego’s trades and skilled labor sectors (construction, HVAC, electrical, solar, welding, plumbing, healthcare, etc.)
Meet employers in the field to support relationship management and job carving
Provide ongoing follow-along support to help youth maintain employment, including job coaching and on-site support as needed
Identify early signs of disengagement and intervene in coordination with the care team
Problem solve employment challenges using trauma informed, youth centered approaches
Track retention milestones (30, 60, 90+ days) and help youth progress toward long-term stability
Meet participants in the field trade schools, worksites, community locations, interviews, job fairs
Attend community meetings, outreach events, and partner meetings representing Urban Street Angels
Maintain accurate, timely, and compliant documentation in organizational databases
Meet reporting requirements for grant contracts and funding partners
Maintain confidentiality in accordance with HIPAA, agency policy, and legal guidelines
Provide labor market insights, employment updates, and vocational guidance to program staff
Participate in staff meetings, supervision, and required training
Support cross-team collaboration to ensure youth receive holistic services
Participate in regular case conferencing and collaborate closely with staff to ensure youth are actively progressing through each phase of the program model and receiving coordinated support toward housing stability, income development, and independent living goals

Qualifications:

Minimum (1) year experience in employment services, job development, job coaching, or supported employment
Minimum of one (1) year of experience working with vulnerable populations, including individuals experiencing homelessness, mental health conditions, substance use disorders, or chronic medical conditions
Demonstrated knowledge of Housing First, trauma-informed care, harm reduction, and motivational interviewing principles
Strong knowledge of local job resources, homelessness systems, public benefits, and community resources
Ability to work effectively with individuals experiencing complex medical, behavioral health, and housing challenges
Strong communication, organizational, problem-solving, and interpersonal skills
Demonstrated ability to maintain confidentiality and manage sensitive information
Ability to work independently and collaboratively within multidisciplinary teams
