Welcome to the Kaw Nation

Human Resources (Jobs)

Attention Kaw Members

Kaw Nation is starting an employment opportunity that may interest you.

Sometimes when we are waiting on someone to start a job or just have a vacancy that needs to be filled for a short period of time we need someone to fill in the basic parts of the job. The Kaw Members who depend on the services of the Kaw Nation sometimes have to wait for the permanent new hires and we want our tribal members to start the process as soon as possible.

These positions will be short-term and temporary. Pay rates, days and hours will vary based on the duties of the position. All available members who would like to do these fill-in positions would have an interview to place them where they are best suited and comfortable working when needs arise.

So, if you are retired, unemployed or just looking for something to do in your spare time, please fill out an application and submit it to the Human Resources Department. We will keep your information on file and when an opening comes up we will contact those interested about the opportunity.
