College of Menominee Nation seeks staff for Keshena campus roles

The College of Menominee Nation is hiring for four roles that reach into classrooms, counseling, technology, and student services at its Keshena campus, a sign that the tribal college is trying to keep core support systems steady while adding local jobs. The openings include a Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor, a Technology Equipment Manager, an Adjunct Faculty member, and an On-Demand Front Desk Trainer for the Division of Continuing Education.

The hiring push matters in Menominee County because CMN is one of the county’s key education employers and community institutions. The college says it is a tribal land-grant institution chartered by the Menominee People, with a main campus in Keshena and a second campus in Green Bay. Its mission is to infuse learning with American Indian culture and prepare students for leadership, careers, and advanced studies.

The Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor position connects directly to that mission. CMN’s vocational rehabilitation program is based in Keshena and serves Native Americans with disabilities, helping them obtain or retain employment. The posting says the counselor will promote self-sufficiency, help deliver community-based vocational rehabilitation services, and determine whether Native Americans are eligible for program services.

The Technology Equipment Manager opening points to the day-to-day systems that keep a campus functioning. CMN says the job will take ownership of inventory management and device provisioning for the IT department, work that affects classroom equipment, office operations, and the digital tools students and staff use every day.

The Adjunct Faculty role suggests the college is also looking to maintain instructional coverage without adding a full-time line. At a small campus, even one part-time teaching vacancy can affect course schedules, access to specialized classes, and how quickly students move through degree and certificate programs.

The final opening, an On-Demand Front Desk Trainer for the Division of Continuing Education, is limited to enrolled members of the Menominee Tribe. That restriction makes the job more than a staffing need. It also functions as a tribal employment opportunity inside an institution that says it exists to serve both education and community service.

CMN says it was chartered by the Menominee People in 1993. Outside education listings put the college’s 2024-2025 enrollment at 300 students, with 102 full-time and 198 part-time students, and list a 6-to-1 student-to-faculty ratio. At that scale, a handful of openings can shape how quickly students get help, how reliably equipment works, and how broadly the college can serve the reservation and surrounding area.
