We have added a new HR position to our team and are looking for a qualified human resources professional to join us.

The successful candidate must be adept at working with diverse audiences, managing deadlines, and adapting to changing priorities.

Additional benefits include longevity bonuses, tuition assistance, free membership to our rec center, and we are a State of Alaska PERS employer. Join us and receive up to $10,000 in relocation assistance (off-island candidates).
