Follow on Google News | Regional Partners Hold STL Manufacturing and Distribution Career FairFirst-time event will feature 20 companies seeking to hire new personnel.
By: Conflux Co-Learning The career fair is primarily for job seekers and students interested in machining, welding, robotics, logistics, warehouse operations, supply chain management, automation, maintenance, engineering, customer service, sales, and accounting. Many of the available positions do not require a college degree, and some companies are offering full benefits, signing bonuses, or opportunities for career growth. "Given the recent closures of GKN Aerospace in Hazelwood and PGP Glass in Park Hills, we saw a timely opportunity to connect job seekers with area manufacturing and distribution companies looking for talent" said Conflux Co-Learning Executive Director Matt Menietti. Despite these closures, a 2020 study by the National Association of Manufacturers found United States manufacturing workers earned $92,832 on average, which included pay and benefits. Roughly 90% of these positions also offered health insurance. Both SLATE and the St. Louis County Workforce Development will assist with promoting open positions among job seekers in their network. The Missouri Job Center, as well as other training and employment partners, will be at the career fair to provide information about services, programs, courses, and other resources for job seekers and those looking for career opportunities in the industry. Conflux Co-Learning is a membership-based organization that curates content, connections, and space so manufacturing and distribution leaders can navigate and grow in a rapidly changing industry. SLATE connects job seekers with training programs and employment, helping employers diversify their workforce and assisting youth with career skills. St. Louis County Workforce Development serves in a partnership role between St. Louis County residents and businesses while supporting the St. Louis Metro area's economic development with a qualified workforce.
