Field Directors

Our field directors are the first contact schools, industry and students have with CAREERS. They are the face of our organization. Our team members have backgrounds in such fields as education, human resources and industry, qualifying them to connect youth and employers to build better communities.

To talk to one of our field directors about a CAREERS program or opportunity, contact your regional office.
