Mission:

At the Reinvent Stockton Foundation, we’re committed to fostering growth and making long-term investments in the future of our city. By embracing community-driven projects and forming strategic partnerships, our goal is to unleash potential and generate lasting change in Stockton.

Platform Context:

Future in Progress (FIP) is a bold, multi-year workforce innovation project designed to connect job seekers to meaningful opportunities while helping employers access diverse, skilled talent. Built through deep community insight and powered by technology, FIP bridges the gap between people seeking purpose and employers ready to invest in their future.

We are entering an exciting new phase: launching the platform publicly and growing engagement across both sides of the system. To do this well, we need a connector — someone who can translate between vision, users, and technology to bring the project to life.

The Role

The Product & Partnerships Manager will lead FIP’s day-to-day growth and operations. You’ll be the central link between job seekers, employers, the design/dev teams, and leadership — ensuring the platform runs smoothly, user experiences stay meaningful, and data drives every decision.

You’ll help recruit and support employers, ensure job seekers have an intuitive and accessible journey, and translate user insights into product improvements. This role requires strong systems thinking, relationship management, and comfort moving between community, communications, and technology.

Key Responsibilities

1. Employer Engagement & Partnerships

Lead employer recruitment and onboarding for the FIP platform.
Maintain relationships with participating organizations; serve as their primary contact for questions, feedback, and updates.
Develop clear communication tools (e.g., onboarding guides, FAQs, check-ins).
Work with communications and media partners to refine employer-facing content.

2. Job Seeker Experience & Support

Oversee the job seeker journey from registration to placement.
Track user engagement data to identify gaps or friction points.
Partner with the tech/design team to suggest UX improvements or content updates.
Support marketing and outreach strategies that drive participation and retention.
Facilitate workshops that engage potential users.
Attend job fairs to share the product and engage both employers and job seekers.

3. Product Coordination & Liaison Work

Act as the bridge between internal teams and the product design/development team.
Maintain project trackers for updates, bugs, or feature requests.
Document processes and ensure consistent communication loops between partners.
Coordinate quality assurance (QA) testing before new releases.

4. Data, Reporting & Insights

Manage dashboards that track platform usage, employer activity, and user outcomes.
Produce monthly and quarterly insights reports to guide strategy.
Collaborate with leadership and AllKinds to align analytics with future growth goals.

5. Continuous Improvement & Growth

Lead small-scale pilots or tests based on engagement data.
Develop and refine feedback loops that ensure the product evolves with user needs.
Support strategic planning for Year 2 and beyond, including potential resourcing recommendations.

Qualifications

You are:

A systems thinker who loves connecting dots between people, process, and technology.
An excellent communicator — equally comfortable writing to a developer, a funder, or a job seeker.
Curious, patient, and committed to equity in workforce development.

You bring:

5+ years of experience in product operations, workforce or economic development, education, or community partnerships.
Proven experience managing cross-functional teams or projects.
Comfort interpreting and acting on data and analytics.
Strong organizational and documentation skills.
A growth mindset — flexible, creative, and comfortable with iteration.

Bonus if you have:

Experience working with digital platforms or tech products.
Familiarity with UX feedback loops, CRM systems, or project management tools (Monday.com).

Benefits:

Based on a competitive non-profit salary scale; generous benefits package. Includes provisions or reimbursement for Medical, Dental, Vision, and retirement plan contributions. All RSF staff receive a generous annual wellness fund stipend to promote healthy lifestyles, creativity, and work-life balance.
