About The Position
The Sr. Director, Workforce Connectivity will lead and oversee the execution of the 'Connectivity Project,' which aims to connect new and existing systems across education and employment to establish career pathways on a large scale. This initiative will empower students and workers in Houston to engage in pathways that lead to economic opportunity, starting from K-12 education, extending through postsecondary institutions, workforce credential providers, and into high-skill, high-growth careers. The ultimate goal is to integrate education and workforce development in a way that fosters economic mobility for every student and worker while supplying Houston businesses with the talent they need to grow and thrive. The Senior Director will work closely with the SVP, Regional Workforce, to collaborate with leaders from K-12 education, community colleges, universities, nonprofits, government agencies, and employers. Together, they will envision the necessary systems to holistically connect education and workforce, identify existing systems that need to be integrated, and manage the engagement of a technical partner to build the required connectivity infrastructure. This role is responsible for developing and implementing the strategy for system alignment, as well as facilitating the changes necessary to address a highly complex challenge that involves numerous stakeholders and moving parts across the talent supply chain.
