Current Employment Openings

The Y Experience – The Y Experience is built from our mission and encompasses the values and philosophy by which we serve and operate

Welcoming – We are open to all. We are a place where you can be yourself and find yourself in others.

Genuine – We value you and embrace your individuality.

Hopeful – We believe in you and your potential to do good in the world.

Nurturing – We support you as you become the best-version-of-yourself.

Determined – Above all else, we are on a relentless quest to make our community stronger, beginning with you.

Believing that people deserve the best, YMCAs offer competitive wage and benefit packages for full and part time employees. Please note that benefits vary depending on position and employment status:

  • Health & dental insurance
  • Disability and life insurance
  • Funded retirement plan
  • Flexible work schedule
  • Free YMCA membership
  • Discounted program fees, including childcare

  • Must have reliable transportation

One of the primary benefits of working for a YMCA is that you will be enrolled in the Retirement Plan, the pension program for almost all YMCAs in the United States. In the course of your YMCA career, if you move from one YMCA to another, your retirement savings move with you because they are always at the YMCA Retirement Fund. Over time, contributions, combined with the interest earned, can help you build a nest egg for the future and plan for a comfortable retirement.
