Jobs

Thank you for visiting the Nansemond Indian Nation’s job and career opportunity page. We are excited to welcome a variety of talent to our team. As you begin your journey through available opportunities, a few things you should know are:

• Section 703(i) of Title VII of the United States Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(i)(1982), provides an exception to Title VII’s general nondiscrimination principles through which Indian tribal nations exercise an employment and contracting preference in favor of American Indians. Section 7(b) of the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act of 1975, 25 U.S.C. § 450e(b), requires the inclusion of Indian preference provisions in certain federal contracts and grants. 

• All job descriptions have been designed to indicate the general nature and level of work performed by employees within the stated classifications. They are not designed to contain or be interpreted as a comprehensive inventory of all duties, responsibilities, and qualifications required of employees assigned to the position or job title.  

• The Nation shall give preference to enrolled citizens of Indian tribes/nations for employment and Indian/tribally owned businesses for contracting opportunities. In other than the preceding situations, the Nation is an Equal Opportunity Employer (EOE).  

• The Nation reserves the right to amend and change responsibilities to meet governmental, business, and organizational needs. Job descriptions do not create an employment contract, implied or otherwise. 

• Candidates desiring to apply for any position must submit a fully completed employment application or a resume with a cover letter before the closing date advertised for the position. Applications and resumes received after the closing date will not be considered for the position.

• The selected candidate for any employment opportunity must successfully comply with applicable drug testing and background check requirements. Salary rates advertised with position vacancy postings are ranges only. Specific hiring rates are determined based on applicable education and experience requirements.

• All positions are competitive. All employment applications and supportive employment material will be evaluated based on the relevance of the applicant’s qualifications and experience as it applies to the position.

• All full-time employee benefits include health, dental, vision, life insurance, long-term disability, holiday pay, paid time off, and 401k.
