High School & College Success



STATEMENT OF THE AGENCY
Commonpoint is a non-profit, multi-service agency with flagship sites in Little Neck, Bayside, Forest Hills, East Elmhurst, and Jamaica with 80 additional sites throughout the community that provides a diverse array of programs and services to over 85,000 individuals. The mission is to sustain and enhance the quality of family and individual life for all members of our community, regardless of religion, ethnic or culturalbackground, national origin, gender identity or expression, sexual preference, age, or disability, within a pervasive and inclusive environment that facilitates individual growth, meets individual needs and builds community. We accomplish this mission through a broad range of social, educational, and recreational services that reach community members of all ages and backgrounds.



PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Commonpoint’s Youth Workforce Department comprises a number of different programs serving individuals predominantly from 14-24 years old. SYEP/WLG provides New York City youth with summer employment and educational experiences that build on their individual strengths and incorporate youth development principles. These principles include engaging the talents and interests of youth, developing their skills and competencies, and providing positive adult role models.



ABOUT THE POSITION
The Worksite Coordinator plays a key administrative and support role within the Youth Workforce Department. Reporting to the Manager of Employer Engagement, the coordinator is primarily responsible for managing worksite documentation, supporting employer relations, tracking youth placements, and maintaining communication with program stakeholders. The role is central to ensuring smooth operational support for SYEP and other workforce initiatives. In addition to regular on-site presence, this role requires flexibility to travel across the five boroughs to accompany the Manager of Employer Engagement on worksite visits as needed. This is not a youth or participant-facing position.



RESPONSIBILITIES
Administrative & Data Management

• Ensure timely and accurate entry of all worksite-related paperwork into the YEPS system, including pre-assessments, assessments, evaluations, permits, and applications.
• Maintain an organized database of job placements, internship opportunities, and employer partners.
• Track participant data, including activity logs and progress reports, and provide regular updates to program leadership.
• Assist in hours tracking, data approval processes, and document compliance audits.

Program and Employer Engagement Support

• Serve as a secondary liaison for employer engagement and worksite coordination—conducting site visits, providing technical assistance to worksite supervisors, and maintaining strong relationships year-round.
• Support the selection, placement, and matching process of interns to appropriate worksites based on

interest and skill.

• Collaborate with internal teams (Job Developers, Program Directors, and Coordinators) to align youth placements with program goals and employer expectations.

Monitoring & Evaluation

• Monitor participant performance and workplace conduct; provide guidance and referrals as necessary to ensure successful experiences.
• Collect employer feedback on job performance, required skills, and training needs to inform continuous program improvement.
• Assist in quality assurance and ensure all worksite engagements meet program and compliance standards.

QUALIFICATIONS:

• Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree preferred, or equivalent relevant work experience in workforce development, youth programs, or administrative coordination.
• Strong organizational and administrative skills, with attention to detail.
• Proficient in Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, Outlook); experience with YEPS or similar data management systems is a plus.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, especially in working with youth and employers.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.
• Prior experience in youth employment programs or nonprofit settings is strongly preferred.
