Ultimate Medical Academy Seeks Student Support Staff

Tampa, Fla. October 17, 2017– Ultimate Medical Academy, a nonprofit healthcare educational institution, is seeking qualified individuals for student support staff roles. The school prides itself on hiring faculty and staff who are passionate and inspired about helping students succeed and making a difference in the lives of the next generation of healthcare professionals.

“We are seeking bright, qualified, inspired professionals who share our passion for helping others,” Ultimate Medical Academy Senior Director of Recruiting and Onboarding Karen Carlozzi said. “Working at UMA means putting our students first and supporting them every step of the way during their academic and career journey. We work as a team to fulfill our mission to equip and empower our students to excel in healthcare careers.”

Founded in Clearwater in 1994 and headquartered in Tampa, Ultimate Medical Academy employs more than 3,500 professionals primarily in the Tampa Bay area. The school has more than 40,000 alumni and offers content-rich, interactive online courses to almost 14,000 students across the nation as well as hands-on training to hundreds of students enrolled in healthcare associate degree and diploma programs in Clearwater.

Ultimate Medical Academy faculty and staff focus on student and employee empowerment, community outreach, and creating a positive impact on the lives they touch. The meaningful work being done both inside the school and outside within the community changes people’s lives.

The school’s mission is helping students, but its impact can be felt outside of academics through a variety of community service projects each year where staff are encouraged to participate. Ultimate Medical Academy also offers opportunities for growth and a culture of having fun, building energy and giving back through spirit days, friendly competitions, and department celebrations.

Student Service Center opportunities are available with the school’s Admissions, Learner Services, Student Finance and Career Services teams. The positions start as Ultimate Medical Academy temporary employees with eligibility to be made full-time, with benefits, after 90 days. Compensation ranges from $16 – $21 an hour based on prior experience.

In addition to open job postings on Ultimate Medical Academy’s website, information on employment opportunities will be available for candidates in-person at several career fairs in Florida, including:

  • Career Fair at the University of Tampa from 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. on Oct. 18
