City of Seattle, WA
Seattle, Washington, United States
Position Description The City of Seattle is recruiting for a collaborative, innovative leader with a passion for creating affordable and inclusive communities to lead the Office of Housing (O H ) . As a visionary leader, the OH Director will lead the City's efforts to increase opportunities for people of all incomes to live in our city. The Director must be a strong steward of City resources to increase permanently affordable housing for low-income individuals and families, must lead innovative strategies to build affordable housing throughout Seattle for all residents, and must help center strategies to combat and mitigate displacement. A successful candidate must show demonstrated leadership and a commitment to equity. Over the past 37 years, OH has funded over 16,000 affordable rental homes with the Seattle Housing Levy and other local funds, and created nearly 6,000 affordable apartments through incentives. In addition, OH has helped over 1,050 homebuyers purchase their first homes with affordable City-funded loans and invested in 300 permanently affordable homeownership opportunities.The mission of the Office of Housing (OH) is to build strong healthy communities and increase opportunities for people of all background and income levels to live in our city. To accomplish this mission, OH includes four program areas: Multi-Family Production and Preservation; Homeownership and Sustainability; Policy and Program Development; and Administration and Management. The Multi-Family Production and Preservation Program employs the Seattle Housing Levy, Mandatory Housing Affordability funds and other federal and local funding to make low-interest loans to non-profit and for-profit developers to develop or preserve affordable multi-family rental housing. A particular focus will of this program will be on implementing Mandatory Housing Affordability (MHA) legislation recently adopted by the City. In addition, OH oversees the Multifamily Tax Exemption (MFTE) units in market-rate development. To ensure that the policy objectives of the City are achieved the for the long-term, OH monitors its housing portfolio for compliance and to make sure the units remain in good condition. The Homeownership and Sustainability Program includes three sub-programs to assist low-income households: The Homeownership Assistance Program supports first-time homebuyers and existing low-income homeowners through down-payment assistance loans, funding for permanently affordable homeownership opportunities, and foreclosure prevention loans. The Home Repair Program provides grants and no- to low-interest loans to assist with critical life safety home repairs. The HomeWise Weatherization Program provides grants to increase energy efficiency and lower utility costs for low-income residents in both single-family and multifamily properties. The Policy and Program Development Program establishes long-term strategic plans, develops and implements policy-based tools, and addresses housing-related aspects of citywide land use and community development planning in partnership with the Office of Planning and Community Development. Key components of this program include expanding resources for affordable housing and homelessness programs, working with communities to develop anti-displacement strategies, creating and administering incentive programs to advance housing affordability goals, developing innovative housing models which have the potential to provide affordable housing faster and/or at a lower cost, pursuing strategic real estate opportunities to increase housing opportunities for Seattle residents, and working with the Affordable Middle Income Housing Advisory Council to partner on this work. The Administration and Management Program provides centralized leadership, coordination, technology, contracting, and financial management services to OH programs and capital projects. Job Responsibilities Appointed by the Mayor and subject to confirmation by City Council, the Director serves as the highest executive authority at the Office of Housing and will have full planning, operations, and financial responsibility. The Director is responsible for planning, organizing, and administering the City's investment in affordable housing. OH oversees a portfolio of more than 22,000 affordable housing units consistent with best practices, environmental stewardship, and an unwavering commitment to the City's Race and Social Justice Initiative. Key Priorities of the Director will include: Stewardship of the City's investment in affordable housing. Provide executive leadership and oversight of the Seattle Housing Levy , the seven-year, $290 Million housing levy funding affordable rental housing for low-income Seattle residents, and implementation of the Mandatory Housing Affordability Program. Support for the City's Affordable Middle Income Housing Advisory Council. OH supports this volunteer Committee whose members have expertise in both investment and housing development.

Develop and pursue strategic and innovative approaches to real estate opportunities that increase affordable housing. Promot ion of racial and social equity . Develop and promote polices to prevent displacement. Rising housing costs are leading to displacement of Seattle's lower-income residents, who are disproportionately people of color. Investment in affordable housing both creates opportunities and allows long-term residents to stay in the communities they call home. Collaboration across City departments . Work in partnership with key City departments, such as the Office of Planning and Community Development, Seattle Department of Construction and Inspections, and the Human Services Department, to plan for and deploy strategic housing actions. Coordinate on the regional approach to homelessness . Support regional efforts to address homelessness through creating and collaborating on housing strategies and projects that promise permanent housing for people experiencing homelessness.

Position Description The City of Seattle is recruiting for a collaborative, innovative leader with a passion for creating affordable and inclusive communities to lead the Office of Housing (O H ) . As a visionary leader, the OH Director will lead the City's efforts to increase opportunities for people of all incomes to live in our city. The Director must be a strong steward of City resources to increase permanently affordable housing for low-income individuals and families, must lead innovative strategies to build affordable housing throughout Seattle for all residents, and must help center strategies to combat and mitigate displacement. A successful candidate must show demonstrated leadership and a commitment to equity. Over the past 37 years, OH has funded over 16,000 affordable rental homes with the Seattle Housing Levy and other local funds, and created nearly 6,000 affordable apartments through incentives. In addition, OH has helped over 1,050 homebuyers purchase their first homes with affordable City-funded loans and invested in 300 permanently affordable homeownership opportunities.The mission of the Office of Housing (OH) is to build strong healthy communities and increase opportunities for people of all background and income levels to live in our city. To accomplish this mission, OH includes four program areas: Multi-Family Production and Preservation; Homeownership and Sustainability; Policy and Program Development; and Administration and Management. The Multi-Family Production and Preservation Program employs the Seattle Housing Levy, Mandatory Housing Affordability funds and other federal and local funding to make low-interest loans to non-profit and for-profit developers to develop or preserve affordable multi-family rental housing. A particular focus will of this program will be on implementing Mandatory Housing Affordability (MHA) legislation recently adopted by the City. In addition, OH oversees the Multifamily Tax Exemption (MFTE) units in market-rate development. To ensure that the policy objectives of the City are achieved the for the long-term, OH monitors its housing portfolio for compliance and to make sure the units remain in good condition. The Homeownership and Sustainability Program includes three sub-programs to assist low-income households: The Homeownership Assistance Program supports first-time homebuyers and existing low-income homeowners through down-payment assistance loans, funding for permanently affordable homeownership opportunities, and foreclosure prevention loans. The Home Repair Program provides grants and no- to low-interest loans to assist with critical life safety home repairs. The HomeWise Weatherization Program provides grants to increase energy efficiency and lower utility costs for low-income residents in both single-family and multifamily properties. The Policy and Program Development Program establishes long-term strategic plans, develops and implements policy-based tools, and addresses housing-related aspects of citywide land use and community development planning in partnership with the Office of Planning and Community Development. Key components of this program include expanding resources for affordable housing and homelessness programs, working with communities to develop anti-displacement strategies, creating and administering incentive programs to advance housing affordability goals, developing innovative housing models which have the potential to provide affordable housing faster and/or at a lower cost, pursuing strategic real estate opportunities to increase housing opportunities for Seattle residents, and working with the Affordable Middle Income Housing Advisory Council to partner on this work. The Administration and Management Program provides centralized leadership, coordination, technology, contracting, and financial management services to OH programs and capital projects. Job Responsibilities Appointed by the Mayor and subject to confirmation by City Council, the Director serves as the highest executive authority at the Office of Housing and will have full planning, operations, and financial responsibility. The Director is responsible for planning, organizing, and administering the City's investment in affordable housing.
