Common Heart is seeking a Success Coach to join our Economic Empowerment team in a deeply relational, community-centered role that helps individuals unlock their potential and achieve long-term stability.

This position is more than a job; it is a calling for someone passionate about empowering under-resourced neighbors. As a Success Coach, you will walk alongside Getting Ahead graduates, providing the accountability and practical strategies they need to navigate life’s challenges and build stronger futures. You will be part of a team dedicated to a “small revolution of kindness,” ensuring every neighbor feels seen, respected, and supported.

What You’ll Do

• Perform proactive outreach to recent graduates via phone, text, and email to identify participants for the coaching program.
• Develop personalized coaching plans tailored to each individual’s unique needs and aspirations.
• Support the Volunteer Ally program by recruiting Allies, managing matches, and providing training to create greater social capital for participants.
• Track and document progress through regular feedback and performance metrics to assess program impact.
• Collaborate with the Economic Empowerment Director on program development, strategy, recruiting for Economic Empowerment programs and coaching, and community engagement.
  
  
  

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience as a Success Coach, Life Coach, or in a similar human services or nonprofit role.
• Strong relationship-building skills, including active listening and the ability to empathize with the challenges of poverty.
• Knowledge of coaching methodologies and an understanding of Bridges Out of Poverty constructs.
• Ability to remain calm, grounded, and respectful in difficult situations while maintaining healthy boundaries.
• Lived experience of poverty or food insecurity is a significant plus.
• High level of initiative and the ability to work both independently and as part of a collaborative team.
• Strong organizational, communication, and follow-through skills.
• Alignment with Common Heart core values of Intentional Kindness, Active Engagement, Initiative, Collaboration and Servant Leadership and Bridges Out of Poverty constructs.
• Education BA/BS preferred.
• Certified Life Coach credential preferred.
• A good sense of humor and a deep commitment to the mission, vision, and values of Common Heart and our small revolution of kindness.
