Conexus Indiana Launches First-Ever Statewide Job Board for Advanced Manufacturing and Logistics Talent

Conexus Indiana, the statewide initiative advancing Indiana's advanced manufacturing and logistics (AML) industry, announced the launch of the Conexus Indiana Job Board powered by Ascend Indiana’s on-line job platform, the Ascend Network. The new job board connects job seekers directly with employers across the state, launching with more than 9,000+ open positions from 3,500+ employers in advanced manufacturing and logistics roles.

Advanced manufacturing and logistics employ more than 840,000 Hoosiers and account for 25% of all jobs in Indiana, contributing $151 billion to the state's GDP. Until now, the sector has lacked a single, centralized destination where job seekers could search for open roles across the state. By bringing employer job listings together into one searchable platform, the Conexus Indiana Job Board gives job seekers a clearer path into the industry and gives employers a more efficient way to reach qualified candidates.

Key features of the Conexus Indiana Job Board include:

• More than 9,000+ open positions at launch, with new postings added daily
• Listings spanning 60% manufacturing roles and 40% logistics roles, with representation in all regions across the state
• Filtering by region, role type, experience level and other criteria
• A streamlined, easy-to-navigate experience for job seekers
• A centralized destination that reduces the manual work employers face posting and managing listings

"Indiana's advanced manufacturing and logistics companies are the backbone of our economy, and they need a direct line to the people who want to build careers in this industry," said Jay Wirts, president and CEO of Conexus Indiana. "This job board gives job seekers a clear front door and gives employers across the state a stronger way to find the talent they need."

Conexus Indiana works with hundreds of AML employers throughout the state on talent development, industry partnerships and workforce initiatives. The job board builds on that work by giving those employer relationships a public, accessible platform for the first time.

Ascend Indiana, the workforce development initiative of the CEOs of Indiana Corporate Partnership (CICP), connects partners across Indiana to strengthen the workforce system and expand opportunity. Since 2018, the Ascend Network has served as a centralized job board and workforce resource. Today, it hosts more than 50,000 jobs, refreshed daily and available to all jobseekers free of charge. Together, Conexus and Ascend aim to improve visibility into in-demand roles, better connect employers with emerging talent and strengthen Indiana’s long-term innovation economy.
