WHO WE ARE
Construction Trades Workforce Initiative (CTWI), is the nonprofit partner of the Alameda, Contra Costa and Napa/Solano Building Trades Councils. Founded in 2018, CTWI works to strengthen policies and workforce systems to expand opportunities for underrepresented populations in union construction careers. We bridge the gap between organized labor and key community stakeholders through authorizing and overseeing MC3 pre-apprenticeship programs, providing educational services and technical assistance and conducting research, all aligned around our goal of creating a more inclusive, highly trained and safe workforce.
WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR
CTWI, in partnership with local construction unions and apprenticeship programs, has launched the Bridge Mentorship Program. This pilot program aims to support apprentices in the trades and foster community building among both apprentices and journeyworkers, with the long-term goal of improving retention of women and underrepresented populations in construction. This program focuses on supporting apprentices through one-on-one mentoring with mentors who are journey-level and above, quarterly social events, and access to an online resource library. Mentors and mentees will come from the same trade and will meet twice monthly to work towards developing both soft and technical skills. Quarterly social events and the online resource library will be combined across the different participating trades. We are looking for a Mentor Coordinator to work with CTWI staff and designated Lead Mentors from the trade partners to implement the program, including leading monthly mentor coordination meetings and providing support to 4-6 Lead Mentors. Our organization is quickly growing because we offer a unique set of services that is in high demand. We are looking for a new team member who thrives in a fast-paced environment, can manage multiple projects that serve a wide range of clients, and can work collaboratively to shape and advance our organization's mission through strategic thinking, design and implementation.
YOUR ROLE & RESPONSIBILITIES
Under the support and direction of the Senior Program Manager and Program Manager, this contracted position will serve as the primary liaison between CTWI and its various trade partners (JATCs and Unions).

Lead monthly mentor coordination meetings attended by Lead Mentors and Program Manager to share program updates and align on goals. 3. Conduct regular check-ins with Lead Mentors to track the status of twice-monthly mentor/mentee meetings. 4. Facilitate strategic introductions to Union committees (e.g., Apprenticeship, Member Services) to integrate mentorship goals. 5. Identify and troubleshoot challenges mentors face in their pairings or reporting processes.
Program Monitoring & Administration:
6. Track mentor/mentee participation, outreach efforts, and application status in appropriate electronic folders. 7. Assist in collecting program surveys and evaluation data from mentors and mentees. 8. Ensure all reporting follows CTWI-established guidelines and protocols to maintain data integrity. 9. Promote and coordinate attendance for quarterly social events and workshops.
YOUR QUALIFICATIONS
