Employer Engagement Vista Job at Goodwill of Western MO & Eastern KS

Goodwill of Western MO & Eastern KS Kansas City, MO 64108

Goodwill of Western Missouri & Eastern Kansas has a rich, 128+ year history. Everyone knows Goodwill for our thrift stores, but few know what Goodwill is really all about. The sale of unwanted items provides funds that stay local, helping us to support thousands of job seekers with barriers to employment. We believe in the Power of Work and are committed to helping people earn and keep jobs in the community. That’s why 88¢ of every dollar Goodwill spends goes directly into our mission, not into shareholders’ pockets.

Goodwill of Western Missouri & Eastern Kansas provides equal employment opportunities to all employees and applicants without regard to race, color, religion, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, veteran status, age, disability or genetic information, and encourages people of all backgrounds to apply for available positions. Individuals needing accommodations to complete an application may contact Human Resources at 816.842.7425.

Occupational training is meaningless if it does not prepare participants for real jobs in our community. To be effective, Goodwill must have proactive and trusting relationships with businesses so that we know what current hiring and training needs are, and what future projected needs will be, and we can tailor our services to prepare participants for jobs that our partners will then actually hire. As we are making plans for what training classrooms and equipment labs to have in our new building, now is the time to focus on targeted employer relationships. Goodwill has a goal of creating a staff team focused on employer engagement in the near future, but that does not exist now; this VISTA can help prepare that future team for success.
The Employer Engagement VISTA will create employer-focused collateral, research employers in in-demand fields, and engage potential employer partners to develop training and hiring collaborations. Goals will include creating processes, collateral, and a well-researched and prioritized employer target list that can all be used to engage employers in the long-term.
