Position Summary The ERIE
21 Youth Program Administrator is responsible for the strategic development, systemic implementation, and collaborates with colleagues to exhibit high-level management of services for secondary students across local school districts (primarily Syracuse City schools), with a focus on regional urban and rural partnerships. A primary responsibility of this role is the oversight of Career & Technical Education (CTE) bridge programming, ensuring a seamless and measurable transition from vocational and technical career tracks into additional ERIE
21 programs and high-growth potential pathways.

To ensure industry-leading engagement and retention, the Administrator will architect and manage a performance-based participation framework designed to incentivize student consistency and milestone achievement. This individual is responsible for cultivating a leadership and service pipeline, elevating students into roles as program ambassadors and peer-facilitators to ensure the program is informed by "credible messengers" within the community. The Administrator oversees the delivery of sophisticated, age-appropriate curriculum in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Workforce Futurism, while directing specialized, revenue-aligned pilot initiatives and project-based contracts.

The Administrator serves on a team of individuals who provide holistic student support, ensuring the systematic infusion of wraparound care—including the availability and tracking of transportation, case management, food security, and mentorship. While not the direct provider of these services, the Administrator is responsible for setting student growth benchmarks, tracking utilization data, and collaborating across all ERIE
21 departments to ensure a unified, end-to-end student-to-workforce pipeline. This role ensures all programming complies with the rigorous contractual and reporting requirements of Le Moyne College and its regional partners.

This position is funded by external sources and is contingent on the continued receival of those funds.
