Mobile Program Coordinator

Job Opening:
Mobile Program Coordinator

Location:

North Central, WV OR Southern WV

Schedule:

Flexible (Day Shift)
Position Type:
Full Time

The Program Coordinator is responsible for the day-to-day coordination, implementation, and results of WV Women Work’s mobile workforce programs, Second Shift and Step Up Recovery. This person serves as the operational hub of the programs—building partner relationships, scheduling and delivering programming, coordinating participant services, maintaining program data, and making sure good ideas actually turn into good programs.

This is a hands-on program leadership role, not a passive administrative position. The Program Coordinator is expected to take ownership of the day-to-day success of the program: build relationships, schedule and execute training, recruit and follow up with participants, coordinate staff and resources, maintain accurate data, solve routine problems independently, and keep the program moving.

Success in this position requires action, follow-through, initiative, and comfort making decisions. We are looking for someone who sees what needs done and does it, asks for help when it is genuinely needed, and can move work from idea → plan → execution without waiting for step-by-step direction.

A typical week may include meeting with a recovery partner, teaching a career-readiness workshop, loading supplies for an off-site bootcamp, enrolling participants in online training, calling participants who need follow-up, updating the program tracker, scheduling the next month’s events, helping set up hands-on training, and solving whatever ordinary logistical problem comes up along the way.

If you prefer a position where most of your time is spent at a desk, where someone else determines your daily priorities, or where your primary responsibility is sending emails and attending meetings, this is probably not the right position for you.

Own the daily operation of Second Shift and Step Up Recovery; maintain the 30/60/90-day calendar; take activities from idea through completion; solve routine problems independently; communicate barriers early; and follow through on commitments.

Recruit, enroll, track, and follow up with participants; coordinate and help deliver workshops, bootcamps, online training, credentials, and career exploration; maintain participant engagement after training; and connect participants with additional career and support services.

Build and maintain relationships with recovery, re-entry, workforce, education, and community partners; coordinate events from beginning to end; and handle the practical details—staff, space, supplies, equipment, recruitment, setup, documentation, cleanup, and follow-up.

Keep calendars, participant records, attendance, credentials, training hours, employment outcomes, and other required data current; support grant reporting and compliance; collect feedback; and use what we’re learning to continuously improve the program.

This is a flexible, field-based position—not a primarily remote position. Work happens wherever participants and partners are: WV Women Work offices, recovery and re-entry programs, community sites, training events, employer locations, and occasionally from home. Some evening or weekend work may be required.

Regular travel throughout West Virginia regions (north or south) is required, along with the ability to transport program materials and assist with event setup and breakdown.
