Towards supporting the Director of Talent Acquisition & Onboarding who leads Henry Street’s efforts to strengthen recruitment, hiring, onboarding, and retention across the agency, and who oversees a Talent Acquisition team presently comprised of two full-time staff: a Recruiter; and a Recruiting Coordinator. The Director works with staff leadership across the large agency to manage and support enhanced recruitment and onboarding efforts, offering the full range of recruitment or supportive recruitment, depending upon the needs of the program and individual hiring needs. Because their success as a settlement house agency wholly depends upon the strength and commitment of their staff, it is essential: that they attract the best candidates; that all of their staff are onboarded effectively and understand their specific roles; and that they invest in and retain their employees by providing them with thoughtful opportunities to learn and grow. Henry Street Settlement serves some 50,000 people annually via its 19 program sites across Manhattan’s Lower East Side, providing comprehensive social, health care, and educational services.
