Are you looking for a meaningful career impacting the lives of students in Burke County? Join Western Piedmont Community College’s Student Services team. We are looking for an individual dedicated to student success who will develop rapport with high school students to help them achieve their postsecondary and career goals through resources available at Western Piedmont Community College.

Under the supervision of the College Liaison for Western Piedmont Community College and Burke County Public Schools, the Career Coach will work in one or more of the five local high schools to help high school students define their career aspirations and to explore community college and other postsecondary programs, including work force training, that can help students achieve their educational, career, and financial goals. The overarching goal of the Career Coach is to help high school students see their high school education as the beginning, not the completion, of their educational journey, empower students to make informed decisions about their career and educational plans, and prepare them for success in postsecondary educational training.
