Job Openings with IHP Partners

Inclusive Hiring Partners is an initiative dedicated to helping you find a job that gives you back as much as you give to it – a job with benefits, competitive pay, and a support system.

With hundreds of open positions, job seekers who enroll are guaranteed an informational interview with participating employers and are connected with community partners who help navigate barriers such as transportation, childcare, or training.

IHP supports individuals from a variety of backgrounds and experiences — including those in re-entry and recovery, Opportunity Youth (ages 16–24), veterans, individuals with disabilities, and survivors of domestic violence — as well as anyone seeking guidance and advocacy on their career journey.

First, connect with us by completing our simple interest form here. Next, explore job openings with our partner employers below.
