Required Location: Los Angeles, California
Our country's education and workforce systems are inequitable, failing to meet the needs of our country’s most marginalized citizens. Historically, workforce education has led to low-wage jobs disconnected from ongoing higher education, which has created significant barriers for career advancement. At the same time, traditional higher education has increasingly become unaffordable for Americans from lower-income backgrounds while also lacking direct connection to the labor market. The consequences of these systemic failures are dire. Despite increases in national high school graduation and college enrollment rates, systemic racism and inequity mean that college persistence continues to be low, particularly for people that are Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC).
At Propel America, we believe a better system should and can exist. We believe high school graduates shouldn’t have to choose between forestalling income and accruing significant debt while pursuing a traditional college degree or forestalling education and mobility for low-wage, entry-level work with few opportunities for advancement. Propel is building that better system, a ‘third way’ solution that allows young adults from low-income backgrounds to access an affordable and efficient pathway to a good job that serves as a springboard to a choice-filled life.
By working backwards from the needs of established employer partners, Propel America:
As the Director, Growth & Strategic Partnerships, your mission is to drive day-to-day market execution by building partnership pipelines, managing local relationships and brand, and supporting revenue generation in partnership key leaders. The Director works closely with the VP, Growth and Strategy to set the regional strategy in regions where there is not a statewide Senior Director. This role is designed for a leader who can balance the tactical needs of managing a diverse partner ecosystem with the strategic need to secure local funding and employer commitments
