Your health and wellness are a top priority. We provide excellent healthcare benefits for you and your family, including medical, dental and vision coverage.
Planning for your financial future is important. We offer a 403(b) retirement savings plan to all staff members with a company match on a portion of your savings.
We recognize that having time to recharge is important. Southface offers paid time off, holidays and flex-time for all full-time employees.
Southfacers are a group of lifelong learners. Our professional development program offers a wealth of opportunities for you to learn, grow and innovate.
As an equal opportunity employer, Southface is committed to recruiting and retaining a diverse workforce and will continue to seek out learning opportunities that help foster a more inclusive environment. We value bringing together people with different experiences, perspectives, and expertise.
Through our values and core beliefs, Southface is an inclusive organization where everyone is encouraged to speak openly, freely and feel safe. Black and Indigenous people and other people of color, women, nonbinary people, LGBTQ+ and disabled people are strongly encouraged to apply. We hold these same principles of inclusivity and diversity for recruitment and retention of our Board of Directors and actively work, through our Governance Committee, to achieve these goals.
At Southface, we believe our diversity makes us stronger and want our workforce and Board of Directors to reflect the communities we serve. Our community is one of strength, resilience, and vision, and we look forward to the opportunities to come together, support each other and help our homes, workplaces and communities become places of equity and opportunity.
