What it’s like to work at United Way

Are you a person who thrives on change and a fast-paced environment? Are you passionate about making a difference in our community? Do you believe and practice equity by committing to continuous learning and recognizing disparities, their causes, and how we can unite to eliminate them? If so, then you’ve come to the right place. You’ll be part of a nimble team that adapts to meet the needs of our community and makes impactful change where all people feel valued, safe, and have the freedoms they need to thrive.

If you feel your skills, and more importantly your passions align with our mission, we encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet 100% of the posted qualifications.
