If youfind satisfaction in mathematics or mathematical reasoning, then perhaps Accounting or Budgetand Planning might be in your interest. If you enjoy repairing equipment or facilities, thenFacilities might be your target division. If computers and programming are your language, thenITSD needs your acumen. OA, like many departments also has Human Resources positions andpositions for people who enjoy economics, accounting, and the art of negotiation in Purchasing.Department of AgricultureThe Department of Agriculture is led by Director Chris Chinn and has been since January 2017.The Department of Agriculture is dedicated to the promotion and protection of the state’sagriculture industry. With nearly 100,000 farms on more than 28 million acres of farmland, thestate’s Department of Agriculture works to connect farmers with consumers. Director Chinn hasoversight of the five divisions within the Department of Agriculture: The divisions of Ag BusinessDevelopment, Animal Health, Grain Inspection & Warehousing, Plant Industries, and WeightsMeasures & Consumer Protection.The Department of Agriculture might be the best place for those who enjoy farm life or thebusiness of agriculture. If you want to make sure farm animals are cared for correctly, thenAnimal Health may be where to begin your career search. If the non-animal aspects of the farmare more to your liking, then perhaps Grain Inspection & Warehousing or Agriculture BusinessDevelopment may be a better beginning point. Perhaps keeping farms free from disease or pestsor accurate labeling for farm supplies sounds interesting, then check out Plant Industries. But ifyou want to make sure that what the scale says is accurate, and follows local, state, and nationalregulations for weighing and measuring, then Weights, Measures & Consumer Protection shouldbe your first stop.Department of ConservationThe Department of Conservation is led by Director Sara Parker Pauley and has been sinceNovember 2016. The Department of Conservation is dedicated to protecting and managing thefish, forest, and wildlife of the state. They facilitate and provide opportunity for all citizens to use,enjoy, and learn about these resources. Director Pauley has oversight of the two divisions withthe Department of Conservation: The Division of Administration and Field Division.
If preserving the states wildlife and the forests of our state, the Department of Conservation iswhere you should begin your career search. Perhaps your idea of a great day at work is ensuringcitizens understand and conserve the biological diversity of Missouri's fish, forests, and wildlife,then the Field Division may be the place for you to begin your job search. But protecting thestate’s flora and fauna requires a solid administrative effort. Yes this includes documentation,but it also includes ensuring the outreach and education portions of the preservation effortoccurs.Department of CorrectionsThe Department of Corrections is led by Director Anne L Precythe and has been since February2017.

Director Precythe has oversight of the four divisions within the Department ofCorrections: The Divisions of Adult Institutions, Probation & Parole, Human Services, andOffender Rehabilitative Services.The Department of Corrections may indeed be all about laws, rules, and regulations, and if thatis your bend, then perhaps Adult Institutions, or Probation & Parole may be your first and onlystop. But, the Department of Corrections is so much more than that. They also work hard toensure justice involved individuals get all the medical, mental, education, and career help theyneed to not return, and that is due to the hard work from the Division of Offender RehabilitativeServices. The Division of Human Services recruits, trains and supports the Department tomaintain safety and wellness of its employees.Department of Economic DevelopmentThe Department of Economic Development (DED) is led by Director Rob Dixon and has been sinceJuly 2017.

If you wantto be the first contact a potential businesses owner has and that contact helps the businesssucceed, then the Regional Engagement Division should be the target of your first career search.But often the business landscape changes and businesses need to change with them to addresslocal challenges so these solutions come in partnership with the Business and Community
Solutions Division. The DED helps businesses succeed but they need to be strategic about thosesolutions and programs.

Missouri is a beautiful state with much to see and do.

If facilitating economic growth by delivering tailoredworkforce solutions, all in an effort to grow solid, performing businesses for our state and itscitizens sounds like your calling, then Missouri One Start Division is your starting point. If yourpassion is women’s issues, then the Missouri Women’s Council is calling. The BroadbandDevelopment Division seeks to expand broadband access for all citizens.
