Regional Water Workforce Collaboration Partner (WIL Collaborator)

About the Workforce Intelligence Lab (WIL)

WIL is assembling regional collaborations that connect utilities, employers, workforce boards, labor, and training providers to address water-sector recruitment, retention, and retirement-driven vacancies. This seat is a collaboration and affiliate track. Engagement is scoped by project. Full-time employment or a project-based contract may be used when a joint award calls for it.

We engage experienced practitioners for both full-time employment and project-based contract roles, as applicable to the award and staffing model. Engagements are remote-first with travel as required for partner and field sites. We build ready teams for live grant and sponsored-research pursuits.

This opportunity is contingent upon grant or sponsored-project award and final staffing approval. Permission will be requested before including a candidate's name or resume in a proposal or funding package.

WIL is seeking regional conveners and employer partners.
