Description
The Leadership Fellow Program is a two-year rotational program at The Port Authority of New York & New Jersey open to students who are receiving a graduate degree between December 2023 and June 2024. Over the span of two years, Leadership Fellows have the opportunity to rotate through four different departments of their choice. Departments where Fellows frequently rotate include Aviation, Planning & Regional Development, Port, Sustainability, Tunnels Bridges & Terminals, Engineering, Finance, the PATH transit system, Agency airports (LaGuardia, JFK, and Newark), the Port Authority Bus Terminal, and more. While there’s no typical day for a Leadership Fellow, some examples of responsibilities include project management, community outreach, process improvement, research, assisting with facility operations, and leading other important initiatives that impact the New York and New Jersey region. The program is designed to build a strong foundation of business acumen, adaptability, and knowledge of The Port Authority as a whole. The breadth and depth of experiences within the program are critical in preparing Leadership Fellows to be future leaders within the Agency.
Leadership Fellows are full-time, permanent employees with a yearly salary and benefits. After successful completion of the program, Leadership Fellows are considered for key positions throughout the Port Authority. As of 2023, there are approximately 100 program alumni still working at the Agency.
