Katie Breault is the Senior Vice President of Growth & Impact at Year Up Professional Resources, PBC (YUPRO), the nation’s leading Opportunity Talent Placement Firm and wholly owned subsidiary of Year Up, Inc. YUPRO champions traditionally underrepresented talent placement where fair market wages, economic mobility and career progression are priority as partners commit to removing barriers for entry-level and middle-skill talent hiring.
Katie’s background in public policy and community activism led her to Year Up in 2013 through an opportunity to mentor a young adult who exemplified the qualities she was seeking in hiring entry-level talent: grit, professionalism, and an enthusiasm to learn and grow. Through this relationship, Katie experienced firsthand how talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not for young adults like her mentee who just need a fair chance to launch their careers and enter the economic mainstream. With her mentee at the forefront of her mind, Katie is dedicated to connecting forward-thinking companies with this skilled and determined, yet often overlooked, talent through YUPRO.
Under Katie’s leadership, YUPRO has been recognized with the American Staffing Association (ASA) Elevate Award for Best Work-Based Learning Program and the ClearlyRated Best in Staffing Client Satisfaction Award for two consecutive years. Katie was named on the Staffing Industry Analyst (SIA) 40 under 40 list in 2021 and to close out the year, YUPRO earned #38 of 52 on the SIA Fastest-Growing US Staffing Firms, as the company doubled in Opportunity Talent placements, revenue, and earnings.
With Katie’s passion to support companies seeking to build diverse and inclusive workplaces, she also serves as the Program Chair for the ASA’s Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Access (IDEA) Council bringing awareness and mentorship to the industry on socially impactful topics.
