  • Ability to travel to training sites and event locations within and outside of Bucks County.

OTHER REQUIREMENTS
The Program Manager will respond to student issues on a regular basis and be expected to think entrepreneurially when addressing recruitment challenges.

This is a grant-funded, full-time, in-person position.
SALARY RANGE $55,660 - $70,000 (commensurate with experience)
