Full Job Description
As a leading healthcare education organization, Unitek Learning’s family of schools helps thousands of students launch and accelerate their careers every year. As a rapidly growing and highly successful company, Unitek is also a great place to pursue a rewarding and challenging career. We offer a competitive salary, generous benefits, unlimited growth potential, and a collegiate work environment. Why Work for Unitek Learning? To be part of a healthcare revolution. There is plenty of demand from students who want to become nurses, and there is plenty of demand to hire highly skilled nurses. Unitek Learning is on a mission to fix the connection between those who want to become nurses and the communities who desperately need them. We graduate culturally competent and highly skilled nurses, and we do this at scale. We have history, stability and strong student outcomes. We need your experience and transfer of knowledge to make this vision come to life. Be a part of the solution. This blended, campus-based role splits focus between coordinating Medical Assisting externship placements and delivering career services and employment placement support for both Medical Assisting and Nursing students and graduates. The Career Services Advisor & Externship Coordinator prepares students for the job market, provides high-touch coaching, and supports the transition from training to employment. A key part of the role is building and managing local healthcare employer partnerships that serve two purposes: externship site development for Medical Assisting and hiring partnerships for both Medical Assisting and Nursing talent. This role uses a proactive, relationship-driven outreach approach and manages the end-to-end partner lifecycle from prospecting through onboarding and ongoing account management. * Coordinate timely Medical Assisting externship placements with approved sites, confirming student readiness and site availability so students can begin the externship module on schedule
