The Greeley-Weld Housing Authority is seeking an experienced and visionary Executive Director to lead the organization in its mission to provide affordable housing solutions and support services to residents in Greeley and Weld County.

Serving roughly 1,400 clients with an annual budget of approximately $6.6 million, the Greeley-Weld Housing Authority comprises two housing authorities collocated and operating with a single staff. Both authorities — one for the City of Greeley and the other for Weld County — maintain contracts with the Department of Housing and Urban Development and work to provide safe, decent, and sanitary affordable housing to families and individuals making between 0% and 80% of median income.

Reporting to the Greeley-Weld Housing Authority Board of Directors, the Executive Director oversees all aspects of the organization, including strategic planning, financial management, program development, community engagement, and staff leadership.

Candidates should have a robust understanding of affordable housing policies, funding mechanisms, market trends, and the root causes that impact long-term housing affordability, as well as a strong grasp of current and historical housing disparities and strategies to address them. Experience with housing authorities, including familiarity with tax credits, low-income housing, and Section 8 programs, is critically important, and experience working with city and county governments is strongly desired. The right fit will also have development experience and an understanding of the housing voucher system.

This role requires a bachelor’s degree in business administration, public administration, urban planning, social work, or a related field, with a master’s degree preferred. Candidates should also have at least five (5) years of progressively responsible experience in affordable housing, community development, nonprofit, government, or related fields.

Previous experience in an executive-level position in an organization of similar size and/or structure is desirable, as is experience working to address large-scale community challenges at a systems level using upstream interventions, policy, and community collaboration. Supervisory experience of two (2) or more staff members is a plus.

The Authority is offering a salary range of $110,000 to $130,000 for this position, dependent on experience and qualifications, and a full range of benefits, including medical and dental insurance, holidays, and paid time off.

Please apply online. For more information on this position contact:Larry Gilley, Senior Vice PresidentLarryGilley@GovernmentResource.com325-660-4208
