As businesses transition from the busy summer season into fall and holiday operations, many employers across Southern Ocean County are looking to add new team members. From restaurants and retail shops to healthcare providers, professional offices, local government and service companies, businesses are turn to local resources to find the right people for the job. One of the most successful tools has been the Southern Ocean Job Opps Facebook Group, powered by the Southern Ocean County Chamber of Commerce for almost a decade.

With more than 8,000 members, the Southern Ocean Job Opps board has become a go-to resource for both employers and job seekers. The group provides a free and direct way for Chamber member businesses to post openings for part-time, full-time, seasonal, and year-round positions.  What makes the Job Opps board so successful is its local focus. Candidates can easily find opportunities close to home while employers can connect with people who already live, work, or want to build their careers in the region. The platform creates a direct connection between those hiring and those looking for work, helping fill positions more quickly and keeping local talent in our community.

Every job posted represents more than an opening. It reflects a business that is growing, serving customers, and investing in our local economy. When businesses hire locally, they help strengthen our communities, support families, and create opportunities for the next generation of workers. The Southern Ocean Chamber is proud to provide resources that help make those connections happen, members should also explore their member portal through the chamber website visitLBIregion.com.
