Exciting news, friends—we are hiring! We are currently looking for TWO passionate, diligent individuals to join our team this fall.
1) Case Manager.
This person will be working face-to-face, one-on-one with refugees every day. They will be the person most directly helping refugees to build a new life here. They will need to have some multi-cultural experience, as they will be interacting daily with people from varying backgrounds. They will need to be detail-oriented, as this job involves extensive documentation and report-writing. And they will need to have a demonstrated love for the people they will be serving. This position will be part-time for the first 5-6 months until enough refugees have arrived to give them a full case load. If this sounds like you, please click the button below, then send your resume and cover letter to Emily.linn@canopynwa.org by September 26.
2) Employment Specialist.
This person will be responsible for the biggest and most challenging aspect of resettlement: helping our clients gain employment and achieve self-sufficiency. The Employment Specialist will need to network and develop relationships with a wide variety of employers across the region, develop a job-training curriculum to prepare refugees for the workforce, identify potential certificate programs that might be useful to qualifying refugees, assist refugees with finding a job once they arrive and follow-up after the job placement to ensure everything is running smoothly. Someone with extensive connections to local businesses and a strong understanding of the current employment market is preferred. This position will be full-time.
