Careers
Employees of Girl Scouts of Greater Chicago and Northwest Indiana (GSGCNWI) make history every day and we love it! Together with our volunteers, we build an environment where any girl scout can be empowered to define their future. We all play a part in helping build girls scouts of courage, confidence, and character alongside our communities.
We have a casual work environment that fosters community among staff. We are collaborative, enterprising, and passionate about our mission..
Therefore, if you are looking for an impactful role, we invite you to be bold, be proud, be resilient, be empowered, and join our Girl Scouts Team today!
At GSGCNWI, we benefit as individuals, and as a council, when our membership is represented and served by a staff with diverse backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. Where we are today is simply not where we want to be tomorrow.
Our pledge to the community we serve is here. Our ongoing commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion in our workplace is here.
GSGCNWI embraces the unique perspectives that you obtain in terms of education, opinions, culture, ethnicity, race, sex, gender identity and expression, nation of origin, age, languages spoken, veteran’s status, color, religion, disability, sexual orientation, and beliefs. We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
If you are looking to make a difference with your job, GSGCNWI is your place. We welcome individuals who are committed to our mission and to keeping our legacy strong. Having been a Girl Scout is not required, but if you’re fun-loving, creative, and a natural-born leader who has what it takes to develop girls from diverse cultures and backgrounds, we’d be thrilled to hear from you!
