Job Summary
The Community Engagement Specialist (CES) position has a key, front-facing and collaborative role in the Youth Mentoring department as part of the enrollment team. The CES has excellent interpersonal skills and insight. They handle inquiries for all children and volunteers and coordinate the pool of inquiries from initial outreach through interview assignment. This includes conducting individual pre-screenings and orientations as well as group Info Sessions, executing multiple volunteer screening elements, and documenting all processes and communication in our workflow/database. The CES provides professionally documented observations and accurate data regarding candidates’ suitability in this first stage of the assessment process and ensures a smooth transition of constituents to the next stage of enrollment.
The CES is also a creative thinker with strong initiative and a keen ability to leverage opportunities for multiple purposes. They engage regularly with other parts of our community.
