Why the Y?

"There's so much opportunity at the Y! I started out as a camp counselor and worked my way up to Marketing & Communications Manager. Whatever your skills may be, there is always a place for you at the Y."
Kaitlin AllmanMarketing & Communications Manager
In the words of Michael Scott... "It's a fun place to work. The staff are like family. I also believe the work we do every day can change people's lives."
Rick LittleChildcare Program Director
"I chose to work at the Y for two main reasons. One, I always wanted to work for more than a facility, I wanted to work for a cause, and I love going home everyday knowing that I’m part of the bigger cause of strengthening the northeast Georgia community. And two, I enjoy working with like-minded people who share similar passions, specifically health and wellbeing!"
Emily YoungWellness/Sports Director
"I came to the Y when I became ill and needed a place to get healthy again. I was a member here for a while and the people here became my family. That is why I decided working here would be a great fit because everyone was welcoming and helpful and made me feel like I belonged somewhere after I felt defeated. Now, the Y is my second home and there is no where I would rather work."
Lindsey AlexanderAquatics & Child Watch Director
"I work for the Y because I love getting to know and interact with our members and their families throughout our community."
Amanda TurnerMember Services
"I chose to work with the Y because I felt like it would be a great way to help others and get involved in the community. When I moved here, before the YMCA, I would just go home from work and not interact with anyone, but since I joined the Y I've become more open with others and I love how the members are open with me. My parents live in Atlanta, so I consider the Y my Gainesville family and happy to be part of."
Angeline KouMember Services
"I decided to work at the Y because it was the most natural thing to do. I had been a member here for several years and had always been passionate about fitness. I was encouraged by the fitness instructors and wellness staff to become an instructor here. It was a great place to start my career in the fitness industry. I was already friends with the members and the staff, so I felt very comfortable when I first started."
Ana ChapmanPersonal Trainer
"I didn't know a thing about the Y going into it, I needed a job and I needed it quick. After working here for a little over two and a half years, I can say that the service and support that we provide to the community is truly remarkable; and being a part of it makes it feel that much better. Every day is a new adventure, with the regulars or the new people coming in, friendships and memories come with."
Isabel CollazoMember Services
"Being a young single mother, the Y has taught me that family comes first. For that I am my son's full support in all that he does and I appreciate the Y that much more."
Jinnette HolguinMember Services Director
"Working here has been answered prayer; as I just been hired a few months ago, I am surprised by how close-knit the faculty staff really is. In short, the Y has been an enjoyable, high-challenging, combined with high-support, place to work each day."
Corban StoneProgram Director
"The YMCA is a great organization that allows you to work with a variety of fields and there are a lot of different opportunities for employment. It is also a great place to build your resume & giving back to others not only helps you feel better, but it also gives you greater self-esteem, stronger friendships, and a sense of belonging. Helping others is a part of your daily life when you work at the Y."
