Jobs at Project Kitty Hawk (Now Hiring) — 5 open

Who We Are 

 

Our mission is simple but critical: to build pathways for adult learners to earn high-quality, workforce-aligned degrees and credentials from North Carolina’s public universities. 

 

At Project Kitty Hawk, our work reflects our company values:  

 

Collaboration – We prioritize our partners’ success and reputation, aligning every initiative with their goals, reflecting their values, and enhancing their impact.  

Innovation – We innovate, not replicate. As creative problem solvers, we use data-driven insights to push boundaries, continuously improve our services, develop solutions, and redefine what it means to serve nontraditional learners.  

Empathy – We understand the unique challenges of nontraditional learners, and are committed to supporting them with empathy, respect, and solutions that fit their needs.  

Integrity – We operate with transparency and accountability in everything we do. We uphold honesty, take ownership of our work, and maintain the highest standards.  

Teamwork – We embody the collaboration we seek. We always strive to be dependable, supportive, and solutions-oriented teammates.  

 

Together, we partner with universities in the University of North Carolina (UNC) System to produce innovative, flexible degree and credential programs in high-demand fields. Each PKH team member plays a vital role in advancing this mission and shaping the future of education for adult learners.  

 

These values will enable us to realize PKH’s vision: to make North Carolina’s public universities the top choice for adult learners and to amplify the UNC System’s role as a national leader in higher education innovation, access, and student success. By joining our team, you have an opportunity to contribute to our achievement of that vision, in the process helping to create opportunities for thousands of learners to earn their success and move up the economic ladder. 

 

At Project Kitty Hawk we hire talented people who are not only dedicated to our mission but share our belief that working together makes us stronger and more effective. In this organization you’ll find individuals with a range of interesting backgrounds and life stories; the true magic happens when those individuals come together to solve problems in service of a common goal. 

 

The Role

 

PKH is growing fast, and our Admissions and Student Success teams are the front line of that growth. We're looking for a part-time Talent Acquisition Partner to own sourcing and early-stage screening for these roles across our university partner cohorts (App State, NC A&T, ECU, NCCU, Winston-Salem State, UNCW). You'll work closely with People Operations and hiring managers to keep pipelines full, move candidates quickly, and make sure every applicant has a good experience — whether they get the job or not.

This is a great fit for someone who likes the sourcing-and-screening side of recruiting more than the offer-negotiation side, and who wants a flexible, part-time role with real ownership over a defined slice of hiring.
