Job Opportunities at the Brewery Project

The Brewery Project is a major redevelopment project spearheaded by Joseph Zilber to revitalize the world famous Pabst Brewery site which closed its doors in 1996. Because of the magnitude of this project, many jobs are being created, and at least 21 percent are designated for Milwaukee residents that are registered in the Residents Preference Program (RPP). This program specifies that all contracts funded by City, State, or Federal Funds must have a certain percentage of worker hours performed by unemployed residents of the Community Development Block Grant area. Milwaukee residents that are unemployed and looking for work should contact Vanessa White at 414-906-9650 for information on the registration process and eligibility requirements.
