• Enjoys meeting new people and building meaningful relationships.
• Takes initiative and can work independently while being a strong team player.
• Is organized, dependable, and able to manage their time and schedule effectively.
• Communicates well with a wide variety of people, both verbally and in writing.
• Has experience working with diverse populations and demonstrates cultural awareness and respect.
• Is comfortable using Microsoft Office, internet‑based programs, and data tracking systems.
• Is flexible and willing to occasionally work evenings or weekends for outreach and community events.

• Associate degree from a two-year college or technical school, or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
• Experience working with children, schools, families, community outreach, or nonprofit programs is a plus.
• Valid driver's license and access to a reliable personal vehicle.
• NYS Fingerprint Certificate.
• Ability to successfully pass required background checks through the NYS Education Department and SAAC requirements.

• Schedule:
  
  Monday–Thursday, 9:00am – 4:30pm with evening and weekend flexibility.
• Hours:
  
  30 hours per week, nonexempt.
• Pay: $25 per hour.
• Benefits:
  Paid time off, paid holidays, health, dental and vision insurance.

At Westcott Community Center, you'll be part of a team committed to investing in our community and responding to the diverse needs of the people we serve. This is a great opportunity for someone who wants a meaningful, people‑centered role where they can build connections, support young people, and make a visible impact in the community.
