POSITION SUMMARY
The Job Coach is responsible for helping program participants—formerly incarcerated individuals—stay focused and motivated while working on transitional job sites and in their efforts to obtain permanent employment. Job Coaches effectively facilitate program participant progress to interview readiness by providing intensive coaching on interview and employment readiness skills. In addition to core coaching responsibilities, this role may support office-specific operational needs, including the provision of supportive and retention services.
This is an in-person role with the expectation that staff report to a CEO site, as the majority of participant interactions are conducted in person.
As part of our mission, we strongly encourage individuals who have lived experience of incarceration or involvement in the justice system to apply for this role.
