Why People Choose to Work for The Citadel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our reputation for developing principled leaders who are prepared to succeed in whatever endeavor they choose is made possible by a strong community of dedicated employees. Our employees believe in our mission and are driven to be part of something bigger than themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our employees feel a sense of pride working for The Citadel. Since 1842, we’ve had incredible employees leave their mark on our college. When our most tenured employees are asked what keeps them at The Citadel, they tell us it’s their co-workers and the community feel of our culture. Trust and relationships can be the most difficult elements to build within an organization. Yet, at The Citadel, they are our best qualities. Join us as we work on a mission to educate and prepare the next generation of principled leaders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
