Genesys Works is a national leader in providing pathways to career success for high school students in underserved communities through skills training, meaningful work experiences with corporate partners, and impactful relationships. Currently in nine cities across the country, we are positioning ourselves to be a key player in workforce development for young people.
Why This Role Matters
Imagine meeting a student who dreams of a career in tech but doesn't know where to start. Fast forward a few months-because of your leadership, that student is thriving in a paid internship, building skills, and seeing a future they never thought possible. That's the power of Genesys Works-and you can help write that story.

• Lead student recruitment and selection campaigns across Nashville schools.
• Design and manage the summer training, internship, and alumni programs along with ongoing workshops or events for program staff and young professionals.
• Coach and develop Program Coordinators and part-time staff for high-quality program delivery.
• Building and maintaining strategic relationships with school administrators and community organizations and corporate partners to recruit our target demographic, provide meaningful internship experiences, and support students with post-secondary success.
• Tracking and analyzing program data to identify trends and improve stakeholder outcomes, program budgets, and ensuring cost-effective operations.
• Working closely with the national program team and participating in cross-site collaboration calls to align local strategies with organizational goals.
• Preparing reports and presentations for stakeholders and leadership teams.
