Welcome to One of Central Iowa’s Leading Employers

The Office of Talent & Personnel supports the district鈥檚 nearly 5,000 employees. This includes the recruitment and retention of employees in several different employment categories, including teachers, administrators, support staff, bus drivers, and more.聽As a major employer, 吃瓜不打烊 is always looking for talented and committed employees.

As the largest provider of public education in Iowa and one of the state鈥檚 major employers, 吃瓜不打烊 recently made an organizational change to provide better support and develop opportunities for its 5,000 employees. The school district merged the Human Resources and Talent Support offices to form a new department to enhance the learning, thriving and belonging of current and future employees.聽

The Office of Talent & Personnel combines traditional human resource services with an enhanced focus on professional development, coaching and transformational leadership. One benefit of this change will be to support the growth of in-house talent and more diverse leadership to represent and serve the school district鈥檚 diverse student body.聽
