Engage is seeking part‑time staff to be Life Coaches in Cedar City, UT. The current opening is for primarily evening shifts (4 pm to 11 pm) and weekend shifts (11 am to 4 pm or 4 pm to 11 pm on Saturday and Sunday).
The ideal candidate is relationally minded and believes through connection we thrive. A confident personality who enjoys working side by side with struggling college‑age adults is a must. We’re looking for engaging individuals that can help cultivate and be actively contributing to an environment that promotes security, exploration and connection. Having a growth mindset is more important than already being good at all the job requirements, being willing to learn and try new skills is the key.
WhoWe Are
Engage is a young adult transition program located footsteps away from Southern Utah University in Cedar City. We are a therapeutic environment for young adults struggling with attachment distress and relational trauma that is often creating emotional and relationship challenges. Engage’s clinically supported environment is driven by principles of attachment while understanding the developmental needs of young adults. Through Engage’s therapists and certified life coaches young adults can experience stronger emotional connections and develop new responses to familiar relationships challenges.
WhatThis Role Will Offer You
At Engage, you’ll receive ongoing coaching and professional development, including training in attachment theory and supporting neurodiverse young adults. You’ll be at the forefront of helping young adults build confidence, develop independence, and navigate life’s challenges.
