Ever wanted to be a professional "Hype Person"?

At Preferred Employment & Living Supports , we believe that a job is more than just a paycheck-it's dignity, community, and independence. We are looking for a high-energy Job Coach to help individuals with disabilities navigate the workforce and crush their career goals.

If you are a natural teacher who loves to see others win, this isn't just a job-it's a mission.
The Role: Part Mentor, Part Professional Liaison

You won't be sitting in an office. You'll be out in the Holland/Zeeland community, working at job sites to ensure our clients have the tools, training, and confidence to succeed.

What You'll Be Doing:

• On-the-Job Training: Breaking down tasks so they are easy to learn and helping clients master their new roles.
• Lead by Example: Sometimes you'll work side-by-side with a client to model a great work ethic and set the pace.
• Employer Partnership: Building great relationships with local businesses to ensure a supportive environment for the people we serve.
• Independence Coaching: Beyond the job site, you'll help with "life skills" like social recreation and personal care to ensure total success.

Why You'll Love the "Preferred" Life:

• Financial Growth: We offer quarterly bonuses, an IRA with employer contributions, and paid mileage.
• Variety: No two days are the same. You'll be in different locations, meeting new people, and solving new challenges.
• Career Ladder: We are a growing company that prioritizes "Inclusive Leadership." We want to help you grow while you help others.

What We're Looking For:

• The Experience: You have a background working with individuals with disabilities, behavioral health needs, or TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury).
• The Communication: You can talk to anyone-from a client's family to a store manager-with professionalism and empathy.
• The Essentials: High school diploma, valid Michigan Driver's License, reliable transportation/insurance, and a clear criminal record.
• The Mindset: You are patient, creative, and ready to advocate for empowerment every single day.
