Administration Director (62752)

Open 40d

Summary

Oversee all administrative operations for a Job Corps center, including finance, IT, facilities, and compliance, while leading a team and ensuring program integrity.

Lead the Operation Behind the Mission.

Behind every student who earns a credential and launches a career is an operation that runs with precision, integrity, and care. As our Administration Director, you'll lead that operation — overseeing Finance, Food Service, IT, Maintenance, Property, Purchasing, Student Records, and Wellness, and serving as the Center's lead integrity officer.

This is a senior leadership role for an experienced manager who knows that disciplined budgets, sound controls, and a well-run campus aren't just back-office work — they're what make student success possible.

Why Join Us? Make a Real Impact!

Job Corps is a transformative program that provides education, vocational training, and career readiness to young adults. In this role, you'll shape the systems, resources, and standards that the entire Center depends on — with a seat at the leadership table and the opportunity to serve as Acting Center Director in the Center Director's absence.

What You'll Do

Lead Finance, Budgeting & Resource Stewardship

Develop the Center's operational budget to meet program objectives. Manage and control Center resources to ensure cost effectiveness and contractual compliance. Provide oversight and control of capital funding and expenditures, coordinate financial management activities with the Director Team, and accurately report financial activities to the Government and the Company.

Serve as the Center's Lead Integrity Officer

Follow all integrity guidelines and procedures and ensure no manipulation of student data. Oversee Center programmatic and financial integrity, audits, reviews, and compliance — safeguarding against any abuse or misuse of contract funds or assets, and ensuring confidentiality of sensitive information.

Oversee Procurement, Policy & Facilities

Lead procurement for the Center, with direct responsibility for the development, management, and administration of subcontracts. Develop and manage administrative policies, procedures, and services that support student and staff performance through planning, staffing, scheduling, evaluation, and budget control. Ensure effective maintenance and appearance of facilities through strong PM and corrective maintenance systems, weekly CTST/Maintenance Coordination, and timely use of capital funds.

Build & Develop a High-Performing Team

Supervise and manage the Finance & Administration Departments. Fill staff vacancies promptly, motivate and empower your team, and hold staff accountable for quality work. Develop employees for career progression, provide required and supplemental training, recognize accomplishments, create a supportive work environment, and proactively address performance concerns.

Represent the Center in the Community

Develop beneficial community linkages for education, employment, Career Technical Training, and Work-Based Learning. Promote a positive image of the Center and Job Corps and build meaningful relationships with elected officials.

Champion Students & Collaborate

Mentor, monitor, and model the Career Success Standards as required by the PRH. Show respect and courtesy to students while holding them accountable, and continually pursue improvement of services. Communicate clearly, resolve problems with sound judgment, partner with staff across all departments, and accept direction from the Center Director, including other duties as assigned.
