ATTENTION ALASKA RESIDENTS!
The Department of Labor and Workforce Development, Division of AVTEC, is recruiting for a
Dormitory Attendant located in Seward!
No Cover Letter Required!
This position is in the General Government Unit (GGU) at a Range 11.
As a Dormitory Attendant, you will be responsible for the safe and efficient day-to-day operations of student housing and recreation facilities and resources.

Positions in the Department of Residence Life cover a 24/7 schedule when students are on campus and every effort is made to work with staff members to allow them a work schedule that meets the needs of both AVTEC and the employee. Staff in the Department of Residence Life work independently most of the time and have the ability to call a supervisor or student worker for backup assistance when necessary. Staff have regular and occasional tasks to complete each shift, in addition to general monitoring of facilities and students, as well as new and ongoing projects as necessary to meet the needs of campus facilities and respond to the changing needs of students living on campus.
The Alaska Vocational Technical Center has been training Alaskans for work for over 50 years and the staff and instructors continue to play a vital role in the success of AVTEC students. We help students change their lives through training, skill development, and preparation for work in their chosen field. Our mission, to deliver flexible, accessible and affordable workforce training that is responsive to the dynamic needs of business and industry and serves Alaska’s diverse communities, is realized through our day to day operations and our staff lives by and models the core values of professionalism, respect, accountability, citizenship, and inclusion in all we do to help Alaskans gain skills, secure employment, and succeed in life.
Everyday at AVTEC brings new opportunity for growth and development. In this position, you will be able to develop and hone your skills and build knowledge and competencies in new areas. As a member of the staff at a division of the State of Alaska, you are employed by the State of Alaska and as such are offered paid leave accrual, retirement and health benefits, and with the nature of the calendar year at AVTEC there is opportunity for flexibility in taking leave and alternative working schedules. Staff at AVTEC and their dependents have access to the recreation facilities.
