　　Position OverviewThe Global Talent Corporate Outreach, Southeast Michigan Program Manager executes Global Detroit's efforts to connect global talent with Southeast Michigan's unmet talent needs, concentrating on international students and skilled immigrant professionals in Southeast Michigan. The majority of the outreach work will focus on international student talent, especially for recent graduates completing STEM masters and PhD programs at Michigan's research universities. Over a decade ago, Global Detroit worked with the region's top research universities and private sector partners to launch the Global Talent Retention Initiative (GTRI) as the nation's first international student retention program outside of university to connect the considerable international student talent emerging from these universities with unmet talent needs among the region's employers, especially in high-skilled STEM positions. With new State of Michigan investment into this initiative, as well as critical talent shortages, GTRI is poised to expand statewide. Corporate engagement remains the most challenging and dynamic aspect to the GTRI program. Additionally, the State of Michigan is expanding programming to assist unemployed and underemployed skilled immigrants. Global Detroit's corporate outreach will focus on helping employers connect with and utilize these talent pools.

　　This position will be located in our Detroit location. The position will concentrate on corporate outreach throughout the Southeastern Michigan region (i.e., Livingston, Macomb, Monroe, Oakland, St. Clair, Washtenaw, and Wayne Counties) and some travel may be required. Mileage for business travel over 20 miles will be paid at Standard Mileage Rates as determined by the Internal Revenue Service. Car parking costs will be reimbursed for business related parking as long as a receipt is submitted in line with the expense reimbursement
